In an upcoming episode of "THE THERAPIST," O.T. Genasis speaks about having a son who's autistic. 

The rapper has opened up about his child's condition before. But in this new discussion, Genasis further talks about the emotions he feels about fathering him. "My son has autistic. So, I live in a different world...He's six," the rapper said. 

Genasis continues: "There are certain things that I go through. There are certain reasons why I ask myself, 'Why me?'" That's when the therapist responds, "Maybe he [O.T. Genasis' son] chose you. Maybe you were the perfect father for him." As he's listening to the doctor say this, Genasis begins to nod in agreement.

Watch the preview of the rapper's "THE THERAPIST" episode above. You can catch the show on Monday (June 5) on Viceland at 10:30pm ET.
