Family Guy Nipsey Hussle Joke
- Thread starter Apprentice
- Start date
Facts.
Now he got grammys and a star on the Hollywood walk of fame. That death stimulus was brazy
But that also shows how much he was loved and respected as a human
His biggest thread was his Victory Lap album thread... that went 100 pages long.
Get bent out of shape over Family Guy jokes especially a pretty mild one by their standards. No one is saying no one knew about him the joke is that his death rose his profile tremendously. I know me nor anyone I know had heard about him before his passing. it. It is what it is. *shrug*.
that was a classic threadLol @ an underground website all vouching they listened to Nip. I mean…duh. This site doesnt reflect mainstream.
Also…it’s the internet and social media age, we all ‘know’ about damn near everyone. That alone doesn’t reflect their global popularity.
And we do have a barometer of fame with IG. I wish there was a way to know how many followers Nip had before he died but I’m pretty sure it was under 1M. Same with Trouble, king Von, PNB. I and almost everyone reading this ‘heard of’ them, but it doesn’t mean they were famous
With that said, what separated Nip is he had a message he was about that could be talked about posthumously. Most other rappers didn’t have that so sadly when they pass their memory drifts away

That's the Victory Lap Tour. That's what I'm saying the album would have been a break out album we just didn't get to see him get the shine unfortunately.
Yawn 
I grew up on South Park, Chappelle Show and Robot Chicken and other shows like it just jokes and besides if we kept it Buck Nipsey won’t all that he was good don’t get me wrong but just because someone died don’t make them a legend same with Pop Smoke people was calling him and his now tape trash just a week before he died.

Bro didn't wanna commit to the statement, that was the grain of salt
Of course I knew Nipsey music when he started out because I’m in LA, but anyone with a brain knew Nip music and name outside of California wasnt on a commercial type level and a lot of people jump on the bandwagon when he died just to fit in… guarantee 80% of motherfukkers are not playing his music today ..
BET of all places did they dikk riding when he died, but not once was playing nip all the time

0 gold albums/mixtapes when he was alive
Album got a resugernce AFTER he died and then went platinum in 2020
nipsey was cool, but y'all lying if you think he was some huge deal before he died
he literally had no hits before he died. literally zero. not a single hit. he was a niche rapper who was deified after he died. from wikipedia:

Bro that album dropped a whole year before he died. All those dates had past. Nip was comfortably in his space; sometimes thats just it. It’s not the old days where a big single (which he didn’t even have) automatically means you ‘blow’. And conversely, just bc you don’t ‘blow’ doesn’t mean you can’t tour across the country and have a great fanbase and get big features. Ie currensy, Krit, etc
Nip wasn’t young/goofy/dumb/drill/trap enough to blow “mainstream”

Life is absurd. Lean into it.
I fukked with Nip before he died, but I wasn't a superfan. It was wild how he became more posthumously famous. He deserves the rec, but it was wild how people defied him in passing.

Nip definitely had a nationwide following before he died... but it wasn’t a major mainstream following like what Drake, Migos or Travis Scott has. Nipsey was putting up Larry June numbers. Meaning he was definitely getting millions of views on YouTube, he was known in the Hip Hop world, but millions of casuals and even some serious Rap fans didn’t know who he was or knew who he was but could go a lifetime without even hearing a single song of his.
He was selling out shows at small to midsized venues nationwide. I knew about Nip since 2008 from the early blog era, but never got into his music because I prejudged him as another post millennium L.A. gangbanging rapper and I don’t really resonate with those themes as a Bay nikka. I’m sure hella people felt that way.
But I do remember him having a sizable following in the DMV before died. I think Nipsey had a DMV following off the strength of him being half East African and being Americanized and looking East African because there are hella East Africans in DC, Montgomery County, PG and Northern Virginia. He definitely filled a void in Rap representation for them. I remember they had a big ass Nipsey mural near U street in DC after he died and East Africans own half the businesses there.
