Jay Z in 2013 buys 100 copies of Nipsey Hussle's 100$ mixtape.
Supports the "Proud to Pay Movement" and Nipsey Independent record label.

100$Mixtape Jay Z Link

Nipsey advocated "fukk the Middle Man" and ownership of artist assets for most of his career.

Pretty disgraceful of some of you to side with white controlled record labels who want to exploit artist.

His popularity certainly increased after his murder but I thought that was somewhat a norm.
I don't know why people would be surprised a rapper's death would make the news especially one caught on camera.

All these day 1 super fans and no one was streaming or buying the albums which is why he did shyt like $100 albums in the first place



Now everyone at the Grammys is a star until someone unknown wins over your favorite artist again and it’s back to fukk the Grammys

It’s not about making the news. It’s about how when they pass away people actually give them a listen or at least will look them up. The dude was more so of a regional artist as best as I could tell but certainly transitioned to a higher level in passing.

that's not what he said though.
People on here routinely said Nipsey was a nobody while alive but Nipsey pushed Bentley through the hood Grammy Nominated FOR BEST RAP ALBUM WHILE ALIVE.
HE ATTENDED THE GRAMMYS IN PERSON ALIVE. THE IMAGE IS RIGHT THERE


JAY Z BOUGHT 100 100$ Mixtape from him.

There are several people nominated for Grammys and Oscar's that people don't know. There are folks who WIN Gramnys that I never even heard of.

Hell, Cordae was nominated for a Grammy too and most of yall probably wouldn't even know who he was if it wasn't for Osaka. :mjlol:
Best Rap Album Grammy nomination is for nobodies. Got it.

The most coveted award in music means nothing.

Welcome to coli breh land okay...
