Latest Hip Hop News And Gossip: Nipsey Hussle’s Baby Mama Breaks Down In Tears At Guardianship Hearing
Nipsey Hussle’s sister, Samantha Smith, and his brother, Blacc Sam, appeared in L.A. County Superior Court on Tuesday (May 14) for a guardianship hearing over Nipsey’s 10-year-old daughter, Emani Asghedom.
Her biological mother, Tanisha, got all emotional and broke down in tears when she saw her daughter during the emotional court hearing after not seeing her in months. The judge even cleared the room for 20 minutes so that Tanisha and Emani could spend time together. At the end, the hearing was postponed until Friday when a decision will be made regarding custody and finances.
Smith filed legal documents asking for guardianship of Emani last month. She was of the belief that Tanisha isn’t capable of taking care of the child. Prior to his death, Hussle was Emani’s primary caretaker. Despite this, Smith says she assisted in caring for Emani throughout her life and wants “to ensure the continued stability for Emani and ensure that she will be able to maintain her current and ongoing relationship” with Nipsey’s family.
On his part, Nipsey’s brother vouched for Smith by filing a declaration in support of her guardianship of their niece. Meanwhile, Sam continues his legal battle for control of Nipsey’s estate, including $2 million in assets. Meanwhile, Blacc Sam is still battling legally for control of Nipsey’s estate, including $2 million in assets.
Smith paid tribute to her brother and promised to take care of his family including Emani following the death of the rapper.
“You’ve taught me so much. You hold me down through everything,” she wrote on Instagram. “I got Lauren. I got Emani. I got Kross. I got Sam, he is my responsibility now.”
