Lil Jon is asking for “prayers” and “privacy” as his son, Nathan Smith, has gone missing in Georgia.
“The family is asking for privacy at this time,” the rapper’s rep told Page Six on Wednesday shortly after the Milton Police Department issued a missing person alert.
“We are also asking for continued prayers for Nathan to come home safe.”
Smith — who goes by the stage name DJ Young Slade — was last seen at his residence on Baldwin Drive in Milton on Tuesday morning.
The 27-year-old ran out of the house and hasn’t been seen since, per cops, who noted that he doesn’t possess a cellphone.
According to local outlet Rough Draft Atlanta, which was first to report the news, Smith was possibly naked when he left.
“He may be disoriented and in need of assistance,” officers said, adding that his loved ones are “concerned for his safety.”
Smith is 5’9 and weighs around 150 pounds. He has short black hair, brown eyes and a tattoo of lips on his right collar bone, according to Rough Draft Atlanta.
Lil Jon — born Jonathan Smith — shares Nathan with his former wife, Nicole Smith.
Jonathan, 55, described his son as a “well-mannered,” “well-behaved” and “really, really good kid” in a May 2014 interview with HuffPost.
“I listen to my son … he can talk to me about anything,” the Grammy winner marveled at the time.
Jonathan is also dad to 1-year-old daughter Nahara with girlfriend Jamila Sozahdah.
