Nipsey Hussle Thread; The Marathon Continues

[Remy LeBeau]

I swear the first time I heard "Hussle in the House" I knew he was special. I actually thought Dre produced it too lol man this is crazy. The video even has the strip mall that his store is now in. Dude was really a hometown hero.

The people have to make sure The Marathon continues...

Did they say who the other 2 guys were?

 

[dacomeup]

You’re not appreciated until you’re gone...

Same thing happened to xxxtentacion. Never heard the man music on the radio until he was gunned down.

Ehh, a little different. Nipsey didn't really ever have the machine behind him or seek that **** out. Self-made. He really caught that mainstream attention for the first time nationally with this "debut" album.

Nip was the ultimate hussle, motivation music for me. Can't even count how many times I ran Crenshaw, Mailbox Money, Victory Lap back and felt the **** he was saying.

Sad day in LA. Weird how it hit me harder this morning. Shed some tears

Man you ain't kidding, been riding with his music for a while and all this positivity he was about I hope is contagious

This one is hitting us all smack dead in the mouth man. Gillie was just live and he heard from someone close to him that Nip’s bro Sam was hit too and is in a coma. Any truth to this??

Look, somehow I escaped the fate of this life I lead
Divorced the street, she tried to kill me and my wife to be
Black widow, silk sheets and a satin pillow
This california king loved you like a sack of endo

Damn. I saw him open for The Game like 10 years ago. One of my favorites from the west to do it.

Rest easy Nip.

This is probably how it felt when MLK got assassinated. RIP to one of the few rare activists of the past decade.

My heart hurts and I can't stop crying.
Tried to listen to his music and broke down again.

First time I heard this in 2012 I became a fan. Knew dude was just different.



Been watching his comeup since then and bumping his music. Felt like he was a cousin or something.

I understand the sentiment, but we can’t sit here and pretend Nip was on MLK levels of activism and meaning for black folks nationwide. Not even close, tbh.

 

[bradnsu]

It’s crazy to see a general like NIP get smoked dude is well connected & well respected caught dude downbad at his place of business with his daughter things might get crazy out there y’all brothers out there in LA be safe man

I hope not.

God can you provide some insight?

Damn his brother Sam got hit too? smh

Blacc Sam got hit too? Jesus please be with them.

bruh

This comparison is terrible.

I think you need to read up on black history. First read up on Dr King and not the whitewashed black history month version. They had riots throughout the nation.

 

[doublemesh96]

When I first heard that he got shot him dying didn’t even enter my mind. My first thoughts was he’s coming back with some pac level bars. Watching videos and **** right now and it still doesn’t seem real. He was just here

Yeah big boy from 92.3 was comparing this to 9/11..

 

[God]

I hope not.

God can you provide some insight?

I’m not sure

 

[49ersaaron8]

I hope they find that sucker who shot him.

It’s all I’ve thought about today.

 

[MajinZuub]

Live in the bay and I just pulled up to the gas station slapping nipsey and the car in front of me was slapping him too
Community is really feeling this one

 

[edshoecator]

Nipsey was really accessible and like a son/father/brother/family member to this community.

 

[tupac003]

Hearing the other two shot were Blacc Sam and Pacman...

Nothing confirmed just talk I have heard.

 

[D StaXX]

Pacman posted on IG today so I assume he's good if it was him.
