At the memorial service for rapper Nipsey Hussle on April 11, 2019, at the Staples Center, those who were close to the icon paid their respect.
Hussle’s girlfriend took the stage with the couple’s 2-year-old son. Also present was Cameron Carter, the son London had with Lil Wayne.
Hussle’s daughter Emani Asghedom was on stage next to London. One noticeably absent person was Tanisha Asghedom, mother of Emani.
It is unclear why a child London had with another man was on stage, but not Tanisha Asghedom, the mother who gave birth to his daughter.
Asghedom had also said that she never broke up with the rapper, and they were still together. She also tweeted on Twitter to London telling her how the rapper still loved her.
Carter told the story about a dream he had several days after Hussle died. He recounted how he was told heaven was like paradise. He also recalled how Hussle would say to him “Respect” by the window in the morning. He then led the thousands of people in the audience to recite the word.
Emani was scheduled to speak next. She looked somewhat uncomfortable on stage, and emotional. Hussle’s daughter did not want to talk to the crowd, despite being prompted by London.
One has to wonder if she would have felt more comfortable if her mother was there to comfort her, and if she will regret later in life not saying goodbye to her father.
London instead handed the microphone to her young son Kross who babbled and cooed into the mic, to the delight of the audience.
Tanisha Asghedom has not made a public statement regarding the death of Ermias Asghedom, otherwise known as Nipsey Hussle.

Emani’s mom had a lot to say prior to her daughter’s father being murdered. Maybe she felt remorse and decided to let the focus stay on Nipsey Hussel. Regardless to the differences Tanisha& Lauren had the fact remains they both have children by this man who should forever be a part of one anothers life.Also every one deals with grief differently…clearly she allowed her beautiful daughter to take part in the services, maybe Nipseys family had a say we just don’t know; but before we go placing blame and making accusations lets just wait and see how everything plays out in the days, months and years that lye ahead.
That’s because she is deceased as well that’s why she wasn’t there so emani lost both of her parents.
How do yall know she wasn’t there maybe she just didn’t speak and why does she still have his last name if they were never married and hes been with Lauren for the past 5 to 6 years and they live and have a child together..sounds like she may have been bitter or who ever wrote this article is being messy♀️
Correction: @Tidy the person holding their two year old son is Nipsey’s younger sister Samantha Asghedom.
This comments and article is exactly why we wont come together anytime soon..childish foolishness..who dates s man who tried to help his community was gunned down probably because of more foolishness…wake up ppl…git cho life
Correction: Emani mother was holding Nip and Laurens 2 year old on stage crazies. LoL smh
It is unclear why a child London had with another man was on stage, but not Tanisha Asghedom, the mother who gave birth to his daughter. Because that was his step son he helped raise!!
One has to wonder if she would have felt more comfortable if her mother was there to comfort her, and if she will regret later in life not saying goodbye to her father. Stop she said her goodbye in private
Exactly, Monica! Smh!
Yes, Lauren was not married to him. True, the other mother of his child did not seem a part of the ceremony, unfortunately. I also agree that his daughter may have felt more comfortable with her mother there. I am sure there is some drama going on behind the scenes. The mother of his daughter seemed to be a bit much based off of her social media posts but unfortunately, that may have been used against her at this time.
You dont know WHAT the little girl needed cause we dont know any of them personally! let me find out you one of her cousins or somethin just jealous, Im sure the mother dressed her daugher or had a hand in preparing her for the funeral! how do you even know if the BM even wanted to participate? bottom line Lauren was his WIFE (Im sure yall can pull up the video from her Birthday for clarification) and she is doing an AMAZING job supporting THEIR children staying strong, a real live hater wrote this article
First I think you should fact check because if I’m correctly informed Lauren and Ermias were married, so even if the ex was so much as still a flame she was not valid. Yes she should have been there or acknowledged but she wasn’t. The children whose life he was in were present on the stage what’s wrong with that. Last I checked it was a celebration for him not his baby mom. You need to take up another hobby because this ain’t it
Lauren and Ermias were never married.
Even his death certificated said he was never married.
His ex was a psycho that’s why smh
This article is dumb. Lauren London’s child with little wayne lived with the two couple, that’s Nipsey’s son too. That’s why he was up there. The mother of the other child was his EX not girlfriend. There’s no reason for her to be up there. The children represents her.
Disagree.
She was the child’s mother. Bottom line. She should have been there to support her daughter. The child should come first. Emani needed her mother. Emani needed Tanisha. Emani did not need a woman who was not her mother.
