Nipsey Hussle’s 12-year-old daughter Emani Asghedom is showing off her vocal talents!
Sunday on Instagram Story, Emani’s mother Tanisha Foster, also known as Chyna Hussle, posted video of her and the late rapper’s daughter singing “I Will Always Love You,” a song originally written and recorded by Dolly Parton that was later popularized by Whitney Houston for “The Bodyguard” soundtrack.
In the clip, Emani shows off her impressive lower register as she sings the classic tune.
Though the young girl at one point doubts if she can hit a note, she ends up doing so with encouragement!
“So this is talent my baby Emani Dior,” Tanisha captioned the video.

After the clip went viral, several celebs including Kandi Burruss, T.I., and YG applauded Emani’s vocals!
“Whoa,” captioned T.I.
“Oh my gosh! She has tone!!” wrote actress Loren Lott.
Nipsey, who was tragically killed March 31, 2019, also shares son Kross Asghedom with Lauren London. London is also mother to son Kameron Carter, whom she shares with Lil Wayne.
While appearing on Steph Curry’s “5 Minutes from Home” series in 2018, Nipsey discussed the lessons he would teach his daughter every day.
“It’s crazy to see the shift that’s happening, just to raise good people that have a foundation of principle and integrity,” he said. “When I drop my daughter off every day, I drill her. When I take her to school, we have a little convo before she gets out the car and she gets sick of running scripts with me.”
He continued, “But I pounded into her head, ‘What is integrity?’ Integrity is doing the right thing when nobody’s looking. Are you a leader or follower? ‘I’m a leader.’ What’s the difference? ‘Think for myself.’ All right, do you have confidence? ‘Yes, use confidence, believe in myself.’ That’s our script every morning.”
