I was so proud when she would rap as a little girl. She became the Queen of Memphis. My baby is loved by people everywhere, and it all started at home with us."
She further added: "That’s so amazing to me. It makes me smile ear to ear. God brought her home to be with her daddy Cedric and her brother Derron. I miss her, but I know she’s happy with them. I’ll always remember telling her, GO GET THEM DOLLAS, but I had no idea how many people would love my baby girl. I’m grateful all y’all support my daughter. Thank you." The clothing line currently consists of personalized Gangsta Boo sweatshirts and hoodies, as well as T-shirts. Prices start at $30, while they reach as high as $60.
