“My career as Nipsey Hussle is based on my life as Ermias Asghedom.” — Nipsey Hussle

I identify myself as a hustler since I was a young kid.

The artist part of me always wants to be appreciated. I read every review. But I never wanted to seek validation by awards or anything controlled by politics.

I grew up in an environment where being polite was taken as a weakness. So I just fought everybody.

Cardi B put a lot of work in.
