The tension between reality star Lil Scrappy and his ex-girlfriend Shakira has exploded into a full-blown custody war, with the rapper issuing a blistering ultimatum: give me the baby, and everything will be fine. In a fiery video obtained exclusively by 9MagTV, Scrappy did not hold back as he addressed the fallout from his recent Bahamas vacation with his ex-wife, Bambi. The trip, which was meant to be a family getaway, has apparently ignited a firestorm of anger from Shakira, but Scrappy is not backing down.
He made it clear that the only solution to the 𝒹𝓇𝒶𝓂𝒶 is for Shakira to hand over their son, Kyrie, without any games or resistance.
Scrappy, whose real name is Darryl Kevin Richardson II, spoke with raw emotion as he described the situation. He explained that he made Shakira mad by going on the trip, but he insists that the anger is misplaced. All you got to do is something simple, he said.
Give me the baby and everything is okay. You don’t have to be mad. The rapper accused Shakira of being bitter and spiteful, suggesting that her anger stems from a place of personal vendetta rather than genuine concern for their child.
He argued that if she truly wanted what was best for Kyrie, she would allow him to spend time with his father without creating obstacles.
The video transcript reveals a man who is frustrated but determined to assert his role as a father. Scrappy emphasized that he does not care about social media appearances or public perception. His only focus is on being present for his son.
I want to look good in front of my son, in front of my kids, he declared. I want to look good to God. That is the gift that is worth getting.
He dismissed any claims that Kyrie does not know him, pointing out that he has videos of the baby laughing and reaching out for him. How my son don’t know me? That would be weird, he said, challenging Shakira to provide evidence of his alleged absence.
The rapper also took aim at the broader dynamic of co-parenting, accusing Shakira of using their child as a pawn. He stated that he is not going to chase her or beg for time with his son. I would rather send that money over there and I know you got it, he said, referencing child support.
Take care of my baby. When you are ready, send them over here. I am not going to chase you.
That is not going to happen. Scrappy made it clear that he will not engage in a toxic back-and-forth, but he also warned that he will not be disrespected. He called Shakira a hater and urged her to stop the negativity.
This is not the first time Scrappy has faced public scrutiny over his relationships and parenting. The reality star, known for his role on Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta, has often been at the center of 𝒹𝓇𝒶𝓂𝒶 involving his exes. However, this latest incident appears to have struck a nerve.
The Bahamas trip with Bambi, the mother of his other children, seems to have been the breaking point for Shakira. Scrappy defended the vacation, insisting that it was a family trip and that he has every right to spend time with all of his children. He contrasted his relationship with Bambi, noting that she does not play games when it comes to co-parenting.
She be like, here your babies, get them, he said. I got to go. That is how it goes when you take care of your kids.
The video also highlighted Scrappy’s frustration with the public narrative surrounding his parenting. He argued that people are quick to believe negative stories without seeing the full picture. She keeps saying the baby don’t know me, but when that baby get around me, my son, he hold up his hand and be laughing, Scrappy said.
I got videos of my son. He accused Shakira of trying to manipulate the situation to make him look bad, but he insisted that the truth will come out. You got to really have to be real, he said.
God be like, look inside of the box. You can see what it really is.
The rapper also addressed the financial aspect of the dispute, making it clear that he will continue to provide for Kyrie regardless of the 𝒹𝓇𝒶𝓂𝒶. I am always going to send the money, he said. Just not like how you think I am going to send it.
I am not going to send you like I am going to what you think is big and what you think small. I am going to definitely take care of my kid. He emphasized that taking care of the mother is also taking care of the baby, but he drew a line at being controlled or manipulated.
I do my part, send me my baby, he said. Give him to me. We ain’t got to do no hateful, spiteful stuff.
Scrappy’s message was clear: he is done with the games. He urged Shakira to simply hand over their son and move on with her life. If you want somebody to know that your baby daddy don’t mess with the kid, have your camera out and just go give him the baby, he said.
See if he take the baby. If he take the baby and you are able to go somewhere for however long you want to go, ain’t nothing wrong. Give him the baby.
He insisted that he will take Kyrie back to his house and give him a good time. He is a Richardson, he said. He is definitely a Richardson, and you are not.
The video also touched on Scrappy’s relationship with his other children, including those he shares with Bambi. He noted that he has never had issues with them not knowing him because he was always present. With Bam, they gave them the milk and bottle milk, so I was able to help raise them because they weren’t just hooked on the milk, he explained.
I ain’t have to come around her and sit right there with her and do what nobody say. I am a grown man. This contrast seemed to underscore his frustration with Shakira, whom he accused of creating unnecessary barriers.
As the video concluded, Scrappy reiterated his stance. If you don’t want to give my baby, I am still gone, he said. I am out of the picture.
But I am still going to send you the money so you can take care of him. Other than that, I am not doing that stuff. I ain’t got time for it.
He warned that the 𝒹𝓇𝒶𝓂𝒶 will only hurt Kyrie in the long run. When my little homie get older, he going to look around him like, wait, why cuz act the way he act? he said.
And then she going to come up with some stuff. He expressed confidence that his son will eventually see the truth.
The situation remains volatile, with both sides digging in. Shakira has not yet publicly responded to Scrappy’s latest outburst, but sources close to the situation suggest that the tension is far from over. The rapper’s demand for custody or at least unsupervised visitation is likely to escalate the conflict.
Legal experts note that such public disputes can complicate family court proceedings, but Scrappy appears undeterred. He is determined to be a father to Kyrie on his own terms.
For now, the ball is in Shakira’s court. Scrappy has made his position crystal clear: give me the baby, and we can move forward. Until then, he is prepared to fight for his son, both in the court of public opinion and, if necessary, in the legal system.
The 𝒹𝓇𝒶𝓂𝒶 is unfolding in real time, and fans are watching closely. This is a story that is far from over, and 9MagTV will continue to follow every development. Stay tuned for updates as this custody battle heats up.
