Indian rapper Badshah recently gave his fans a glimpse into his personal life by sharing a heartwarming video of his 7-year-old daughter Jessie rapping along with him. The rapper, who has been open about his co-parenting journey with ex-wife Jasmine Masih, is spending quality time with his daughter, showing her the ropes of his craft. But, while Jessie enjoys rapping, she’s not exactly her dad’s biggest fan!
Badshah and Jessie’s Cute Rap Session
On October 18, 2024, Badshah shared an adorable video on Instagram, featuring his daughter Jessie showing off her rapping skills. Dressed in a black sweatshirt with braided hair and a headband, Jessie looks every bit the future star. In the video, Jessie introduces herself with the line, “This is your girl, Jessamy, and you’re watching me on YouTube,” as she raps along with her dad.
Jessie Isn’t a Fan of Badshah’s Music
Despite rapping like her father, Jessie has her musical preferences. In a recent podcast, Badshah revealed that his daughter isn’t a fan of his work, even though she thinks he’s “very good.” He shared that Jessie has attended his live concerts but is more interested in the music of K-pop group Blackpink. Badshah admitted that it’s a bit tough for him, as a musician, to see his daughter enjoy someone else’s music, but he takes it in stride.
Badshah’s Emotional Experience as a Father
Badshah has often spoken about the joy of being a father. During an episode of MTV Hustle 03, the rapper got emotional after hearing a contestant’s song dedicated to women in his life. He recalled the moment when he first became a father to Jessie, saying that holding her hand for the first time stirred up deep emotions, even though he didn’t feel much when she was initially born.
This candid moment of Badshah and his daughter has melted hearts online, showing the softer, more personal side of the rapper.
