The internet went wild when Eazy-E’s daughter paid tribute to her late father by recreating an iconic photo, introducing her newborn son to the world in the process. Earlier this week, Henree Cherron Wright shared a series of photos on Instagram, giving fans a peek at Eazy’s grandson.

The photoset featured multiple shots of the baby, laid out across a mini studio console. She even threw in the original snap of her dad, asleep in the same position during a real studio session.

“The moment you guys have been waiting for [emotional smiley face emoji]!,” Wright wrote. “Allow me to introduce to you, our Baby Boy ! Hendrix Jru Boone [blue heart emoji].”

Henree Cherron Wright, better known as ReeMarkable, announced the arrival of her son on what would have been Eazy-E’s 60th birthday, sharing a close-up of the newborn’s tiny arm and hands on Instagram.

In her caption, she recognized the special connection between her dad’s milestone birthday and her baby boy’s arrival, writing “Happy birthday Daddy! 9/7/24 this for you.”

She also took a moment to shout out her partner, adding “@derrtymillionz we did it. My soul mate. We owe each other the world and we gone continue to give it to each other. I love you husband I thank you for this gift this blessing. You the one fr.”

Excitedly, she added, “Baby is here y’all!!! 6 pushes ! All natural. I wasn’t gone post but this was needed to be said #ripeazye #ripdoretha.”

Her post included a heartfelt photo of the late N.W.A legend, who passed away in March 1995, just 18 months after Henree was born.

Fans couldn't help but comment on the viral baby reveal. One person gushed, “This is the hardest newborn session I've ever seen and the most adorable! Congratulations to you, your husband and family!” Another shared their own experience, writing, “Congratulations that’s the best feeling I had my daughter on my which would’ve been my moms 60th birthday and she looks and acts just like my her she’s 2 now.”

Someone else jokingly chimed in, “Bruh just born and you got him locked in the Stu.”

The moment was captured by photographer @randitheresa_ from Marietta, Georgia, with a full team behind the set design, custom outfit, and more, as mentioned in the post.

Eazy-E, who was just 30 at the time of his death, passed away from AIDS-induced pneumonia, an illness he had revealed just weeks before.

Before his untimely death, the rapper fathered 11 children, including rapper Lil Eazy-E.
