Fans of the late rapper Nipsey Hussle have reason to anticipate new music this year. His brother, Blacc Sam, has confirmed the release of a posthumous album. In a recent interview, Sam shared that the project is a collaboration between Nipsey Hussle and Bino Rideaux. The album was largely completed before Nipsey’s untimely death in 2019.
A Nipsey Hussle Project Rooted in Authenticity
Blacc Sam emphasized the importance of maintaining Nipsey’s artistic integrity. He stated, “If Hussle didn’t actually do the verse or work with the person or put together the blueprint for the project, we’re not doing it.” This approach ensures that any posthumous releases align with Nipsey’s original vision and collaborations.
Regarding the upcoming album, Sam revealed, “He did something with Bino, and there’s a new project that we’re about to release. This was a project that he had with Bino that was pretty much like 80% finished.” The team has since worked to complete the album, incorporating unreleased verses and refining the existing material.
Anticipated Summer Release
Fans can look forward to the album’s release in the coming months. Blacc Sam mentioned, “It sounds amazing. It should be coming out around this summer. The team is real excited.” The final touches have been applied over the past few weeks, ensuring a polished and authentic product that honors Nipsey’s legacy.
This release marks the first posthumous project from Nipsey Hussle, whose influence in the music industry and community continues to resonate. Collaborator Bino Rideaux, who previously worked with Nipsey on the 2017 mixtape “No Pressure,” brings his unique style to the project, promising a compelling addition to both artists’ discographies.
As the release date approaches, fans eagerly await the opportunity to experience new music from the beloved artist, ensuring that Nipsey Hussle’s enduring impact continues to inspire.
