I do believe this is Daryl Hall's son. Unfortunately, when Darren tried reaching out to his father, Daryl completely disregarded him and always treated him like he was worthless. Darren was conceived back in 1983 when Daryl had a brief fling with some random woman, but then he just blew her off. When Darren eventually learned who his father was, he felt inspired by him and hoped that he would be accepting of him by allowing him to play music live with him, but Daryl never allowed Darren to participate with him in concerts. He usually just ignored him and instructed him to sell his merchandise in the front of arenas. It's a shame! Daryl is incredibly talented, but to ignore his own flesh and blood and to refuse to acknowledge him is very selfish! I wish Darren the best! ~Dutch
I can relate to his experience sadly - I can't say I respect my bio family anymore, but they made me and destroyed me at the same time - I let them go and realize they are more toxic than drugs and alcohol to me - this is sad what happened to Darren, and daryl obviously is reminded of his regrets of the one night stand and the woman who he was with when acknowledging Darren as his son - but that's his shit and his mistakes and regrets and he should move past or heal his damaged ego and be a respectful and supportive father imho...
Darren wasn't all innocent in all of it after he met Daryl at 18 and thought Daryl would give him an easy hand up into the music business. Daryl wasn't innocent either but Darren's mom kept wanting more and more money for not just Darren but herself and 2 other kids she had with a boyfriend who was living with them. There are 2 sides to every story. www.popdust.com/daryl-halls-son-darren-on-absentee-dad-financial-struggles-burgeoning--1889857468.html
@@aprildavis-washington5734 you know, it really seems that you are trying to overlook the emotive weight and the importance of the fact that daryl has chosen to be quite neglectful of his son on all fronts. I don't think Darren was expecting and easy hand up at all, and I think you are quite cynical in your statements there, and in fact, I think that Darren actually really wanted a healthy and present and emotionally and mentally supportive role model of a father as all sons and daughters do.
LOL this is insane as I'm reading this and responding with this comment & Hall & Oates just came on, unintentionally on my part, with "I Can't Go For That" (no can do). Okay... Anyway I saw a video of Darren Hall years ago on RUclips talking about how his dad, Daryl Hall met his mom at a concert and she was "really hot" his words NOT mine and "took care of business" & she got pregnant now, he was very rightfully so hurt because his dad he said really didn't acknowledge Him and gave him low-level hard jobs during Daryl's touring and so forth but I hope to God this IS the REAL Darren Hall because if so... he has changed and morphed into a wonderful well-adjusted man, but I don't know I just don't feel that this IS the "Darren Hall" AKA biological son of Hall and Oates, Daryl Hall NOT trying to throw any shade, but nowadays I'm just really cautious of what I see and hear...
These negative comments about Daryl Hall are b.s. Do your research. Darren was given jobs by Daryl and he blew them off. He wanted to get on the stage without the work that musicians have to put into it. As far as Darren calling Daryl a dead beat dad he paid child support, he paid for all the medical and dental, etc. The trying to get to know one another is a two way street. If you look at some of Daryl Hall's music videos you will see where Darren goes on there and posts what a horrible dad he is. I don't know about the rest of you but if I wanted to know my dad I wouldn't be saying bad things about him. I'm happy for Darren doing things on his own. I wish him luck with his future endeavors in music.
Darren lived with his dad for awhile and he stole from him and caused all kinds of problems. There are 2 sides to every story so don't be so quick to judge. Darren's mom shouldn't have slept with him in the first place, groupies.
Any person that blows off their child and in this case for 18 years is a deadbeat parent. He reached out to his father after turning18 not the other way. So it’s very possible Daryl probably never would have reached out.
He looks just like his dad, which can be common, hey darren, lots of dads suck! You will be ok..some dads beat their kids, and all sorts if things..you'll be fine..lots of fathers are A-holes! Ha!😅❤

Daryl you should be very proud of your son 💞
Wow he's really got a lot of depth and obviously very conscious. I'm very impressed with his soul. Blessings ✨️🙌🏽
What a really nice guy. He would be really great at music therapy for special needs children.. Wishing him the best.
Darren seems like a great person.
This is Darren Austin Hall, a healer, this is not the Darren Hall who is son of Daryl Hall
Thanks for that.
So hes not daryls son?
Sure looks identical.
@@lionswimmer4637he looks nothing vaguely like him and Daryl hall says he doesn't have a son
I'm very much a family person ,. and I just pray 🙏 that Daryl and Darren would just talk once in a while.
Wow those eyes . I'm happy that you turned out to be a great man. I'm sure growing up wasn't easy. God bless 🙏
Jesus cant you watch an interview without gettin all wet?

@@aprildavis-washington5734 You sure got a different take from that article than I did. It seems like Darryl is just a big self-centered douche.
wham bam thank you maam lives a long time
FYI-This gentleman is NOT Daryl Hall’s son. SMH.
3:27 just wonder if Darren has ever had a relationship with his father?
🎉this is his son alright, looks just like him...nice smart guy..
You can’t mistake body mannerisms, and his eyes and eye movement are just like his dad’s.
Guess you can mistake that. This guy is from Canada. It's not Daryl's son.
This is not the Darren Hall you guys are thinking about. FYI.
THANK YOU! xx
Sorry, folks, this is definitely not Daryl's son. They bear a slight resemblance, but it ain't him. Cool human, tho!
Sure looks identical.
@@lionswimmer4637 Very similar - understandable why people are mistaken!
@@kikivitt Are we certain that this isn't just a rebranding situation?

You are lying.

You are so right! He looks a little like Darren Hall, but this ain't him.
I think alot of people really feel sad for Darren but adversity build character...so I can understand what Daryl did..

He did not refer to Daryl as a "dead beat dad".
His Dad didn't want to know him at first paid when taken to court!Love Hall and Oates but no t the best dad 😐
