Nipsey Hussle

Songwriter: Nipsey Hussle

What's your life like nigga mine's great
I done made it out despite my city's crime rate
Every single rule nigga that's what I break
Hit me like a omen seize the moment Hussle why wait
One thing I never do is exercise hate
But I'm the illest nigga doin' this in my state
Probably my country, probably this world
Anywhere I see myself I bet I get there
If there's a throne to be sat on I bet I sit there
If there's a crown to be worn I bet it fit yea
Call me king nip c note you niggas is pussy
3 squares like C low
Blood suckin' people like man made mosquitos
Once a month a nigga still gotta see my p.o
Had so many cars but I ain't never seen a repo
Leather seat flow sippin' mile high mojitos
Before success is what comes after calico
Niggas chase fame like O.J. and clicquot
Quick sand stance pay attention watch 'em sink slow
In retrospect 15 was like cinco
Seconds in the spot light and watch 'em walk off
Know you official when the referee is in for you
And all your hip hop role models is startin' to mention you
Resurrect the west I'm just doin' what I'm meant to do
Two words then who? if it isn't dude ...

Ermias Joseph Asghedom (August 15, 1985 – March 31, 2019), better known as Nipsey Hussle, was a Grammy-award winning hip-hop artist and mogul from the Crenshaw district of South Central Los Angeles, California.

With a name inspired by actor Nipsey Russell, Nipsey Hussle released his first project, Slauson Boy Volume 1, in 2005, and he was featured in XXL’s 2010 Freshman Class alongside J. Cole, Big Sean, Freddie Gibbs, Wiz Khalifa, and Jay Rock among others. Nipsey gained national headlines in 2013 as he sold copies of his Crenshaw mixtape for $100 each. One customer was JAY-Z, who purchased 100 copies in support of Nipsey’s hustle. He then charged $1,000 per copy of his Mailbox Money mixtape in 2014 to continue his #Proud2Pay campaign.

After a decade of releasing several mixtapes and singles, Nipsey released his long-awaited debut album Victory Lap in 2018. The album was nominated in the Best Rap Album category at the 2019 Grammy Awards.
