fukk she earned a follow

Why he got his thumb in her ass![]()
Never said anything about being independent. What I was saying, which we agree on, is that he wasn't regional.
"Racks in the Middle" was a smash hit and, even before he died, within one month of that single being released, it had more than triple the amount of YouTube views as the next biggest song off of Victory Lap. Off the strength of that song and the grammy nomination alone, Victory Lap was on track to sell more units. Would it have gone gold? Maybe, maybe not. The fact is he was clearly on the edge of a major crossover. And before people say the single was big because of Roddy Ricch, The Box didn't drop until 10 months later and he was nowhere near being a household name of any sort at that point. It was a hot single and the type of record that was about to be a radio hit regardless of Nipsey's passing. Nipsey was poised to be a breakout artist in 2019 no matter what.
For reference, you'll never hear this regional talk said about a rapper like Freddie Gibbs in spite of the fact that he's NEVER sold a fraction of what Nipsey did while he was alive on any album, Alfredo, Bandana and Pinata included. They were both in the same XXL Freshmen class and their careers have lasted roughly the same amount of time. Freddie Gibbs, right now, does not have a single youtube video with as many views as what Racks in the Middle got in a month (11 million). Nipsey's viewcounts on his videos before Racks in the Middle were exactly the same as Gibbs's. Is Gibbs regional now too? Is he a very minor artist?
Your first part is wrong as hell. Ross even said he was shopping Nip around and every label wanted him, but he wanted to own 100% of his shyt and wouldn't back down. He would have been another artist on MMG right when Meek and Wale was going plat and he turned it down. Turned down deals with Dre and Hov cause he wanted 100%.. That's why his first album took 10 years of grinding to get out. Doing the $100 tickets and shyt to build up his leverage until he could own his masters from the first record on....Breh you a fool if you don't believe that if given the opportunity to make $500 million, that Nip wouldn't have been open to that.
Yes, he was authentic. But if he could remain authentic and get that money too, he would have done it.
You need to stop it.
I didn't say Nip didn't have any love. Yes, he had his die hard fans, but his name wasn't coming out of everybody's mouth like it was after he died.
And you a fool if you think he was the biggest west coast rapper after Kendrick Lamar.
Y'all victims of the narrative. I'm done with this convo.
If you think I'm wrong, I dare you to search the coli and see how many Nipsey Hussle threads folks were making before he died. Then look at how many were made AFTER he died.
That will prove my point right there.
How is it fake fandom by getting tattooed
People memorialize the dead with Tattoos
You incel nikka nerds just hate attractive women you can't access
Woah, so brehs were dropping dead after you meet or reconnect with them?No Nip slander will be allowed…
Erm was a personal friend & classmate of mine
My girl went to elementary with him & we met in 9th grade…
His impact and hustle and vision is why he’s so greatly admired and respected. The rap shyt was cool, the the moves he was making outside of that were even bigger.
The fake love after his passing is some sick shyt and lame shyt. But sadly this happens to all icons when they reach a certain level.
My nikka Erm man…
2018-20 was heavy as for the city and me personally…
I reconnected with Erm at the Laker / Rockets game (when Rondo punched cp3) and we got to talk before the game. Told him how proud we all were & for him tk keep doing his shyt.
Met Kobe shortly after that at the Lakers practice facility and spoke with him…
shorty after that, reconnected with another friend from high school who fukked with me & Erm down in Venice.
He dies of an overdose at Venice beach
Erm is killed
Kobe crashes
The city will never be the same.
I just feel very blessed and fortunate that I was able to speak to all three of them shortly before they made their transition. This shyt is kind of surreal when I think about it sometimes.
Oooh naaaaaaaaaah
Never once heard him mentioned outside LA before his murder
