Both have been hailed as modern-day legends, tapping into their emotions to deliver some of the most heartfelt rap songs of the last several years.

Cleopatra Bernard and Jenesis Sanchez have reportedly reached a legal settlement.
Ever since the passing of XXXTentacion nearly two years ago, his son Gekyume Onfroy has been the topic of many pressed conversations. The late Florida-born rapper never had a chance to meet his offspring. In fact, the world only learned about his little one days following his murder. Several questions have arisen regarding the paternity and custody situation of Geks, with X’s mother Cleopatra Bernard filing several legal claims against his baby mother, Jenesis Sanchez, to fight for the right to raise her grandson. Just a few days ago, a new suit was filed in court but it seems as though things have already been handled between both parties. According to The Blast, Sanchez and Bernard have reached a settlement.
New court documents point to a settlement between Cleopatra Bernard and Jenesis Sanchez regarding the custody agreement for Gekyume Onfroy. A note on the papers states that their agreement was “confidential” so it’s unlikely that information will ever leak out into the public. However, it’s nice to see this get resolved so quickly. There is no benefit in having Sanchez and Bernard fight over Gekyume. That’s not what X would have wanted.
XXXTentacion’s mother has become the primary source for all things pertaining to the rapper’s son. She has shared several photos of the growing boy, who looks more and more like his dad as he ages.
XXXTentacion’s Mother Fighting His Baby Mama For Custody Of Gekyume: Report
A Florida judge is investigating XXXTentacion’s son’s custody arrangement.
XXXTentacion fans have generally not been pleased with the way his estate has been handled by his family and close friends. With much of the posthumous activity being organized by his mother, Cleopatra Bernard, a lot of anger has been directed at her. Fans are under the impression that much of the music that has been released either on Skins or Bad Vibes Forever was unfinished, tainting the legacy of the late rapper and taking the shine away from what he accomplished when he was alive. As you surely have heard, XXXTentacion’s personal life wasn’t always squeaky clean. He has been accused of some heinous things, but he did end up leaving behind a final gift for his family and the world around him: his baby boy Gekyume Onfroy. XXXTentacion never got to meet his son, who was born months after his murder, but even the situation with Yume will leave a bad taste in fans’ mouths.
According to The Blast, Cleopatra Bernard is fighting her son’s baby mama, Jenesis Sanchez, in court to gain custody of Gekyume Onfroy. In the court documents, it is reportedly noted that a “Guardian Ad Litem” was appointed by a Florida judge, which is used to formally investigate what solutions would fit the best interests of a child. An official will be looking into the living situations of Sanchez and Bernard to determine where it would be more appropriate for Gekyume to spend the majority of his time growing up.
Shortly after the birth of Gekyume, who turns one later this month, Jenesis Sanchez attempted to order a DNA sample from XXXTentacion’s body in order to confirm his paternity, which was shut down by Cleo. Eventually, the judge sided with Jenesis and allowed the test to take place. We will keep you updated on any potential developments.
