Nipsey Hussle's $11 Million Estate Awarded to His Children After Years-long Probate Process

A California court has awarded Nipsey Hussle’s $11 million estate and Marathon businesses to his two children, ending a years-long probate case and keeping his South LA ownership legacy in family hands.

More than seven years after the death of Nipsey Hussle, a California court has officially finalized the distribution of the South Los Angeles rapper and entrepreneur's estate, ensuring that the wealth and businesses he built will pass directly to his two children.

On July 5, the court approved the equal distribution of Nipsey Hussle's estate—valued at approximately $11 million—to his daughter, Emani Asghedom, and his son, Kross Asghedom. Each child will receive a 50% share of the estate, bringing to a close a probate process that began after the Grammy-nominated artist was fatally shot outside his Marathon Clothing store in March 2019.

The estate includes cash, ownership interests in The Marathon Clothing, All Money Inc., Marathon Studios, Marathon Touring, trademark rights, vehicles—including a 2012 Chevrolet Suburban—and other business and personal assets tied to Nipsey's legacy.

Nipsey, born Ermias Asghedom, shared Emani with Tanisha Foster and Kross with actress Lauren London.

The estate has been administered by Nipsey's brother, Samiel "Blacc Sam" Asghedom, who spent years navigating probate proceedings and a legal dispute involving Emani's guardianship and inheritance. That matter was resolved in 2025, clearing the way for the final distribution of assets. Kross's inheritance, managed by his mother, Lauren London, moved through the process without the same level of legal challenges.

For Asghedom, preserving his brother's vision has always been about more than money.

"When I say we own it, it's in Hussle's kids' names," Blacc Sam said. "This is something their father worked for, and that they own, and that's important to me."

The ruling also ensures that control of The Marathon Clothing brand and Nipsey's trademark portfolio remains with his children, preserving a business empire the rapper intentionally built around ownership, economic empowerment and investment in South Los Angeles.

Since Nipsey's death, the Marathon brand has continued to expand under Blacc Sam's leadership with ventures including Marathon Burger while maintaining partnerships such as Puma, which continue contributing to the family's long-term financial future.

For many in Los Angeles, the conclusion of the probate case represents more than the settlement of an estate. It fulfills one of Nipsey Hussle's defining principles: building generational wealth through ownership.

Long before his death, Nipsey championed Black entrepreneurship, neighborhood investment and financial independence, using businesses like The Marathon Clothing as symbols of what community ownership could look like. With the court's decision, the assets he spent years building will now remain in the hands of the next generation of the Asghedom family.
