Many people remember Nipsey Hussle as a talented rap artist, entrepreneur, and community activist. And since his death in March, some of his songs have even received Grammy nominations.

His work in music and in the community has many calling his influence ‘legendary’.

However, not everybody is convinced Nipsey Hussle is a legend. Music industry veteran and manager of The Game, Wack 100, has made it loud and clear that Nipsey’s legacy isn’t anything special. Here’s his latest controversial statements along with responses from Nipsey’s pals from the Rolling 60s Crips.

Wack’s Latest Controversial Comments On Nipsey

At The Game’s 40th birthday party, TMZ interviewed Wack 100.

In the interview, the TMZ reporter mentioned Wack’s outspoken comments he made about Nipsey back in October. The reporter was referring to leaked audio files where Wack reportedly said Nipsey should not be considered a ‘legend’.

Wack quickly responded by saying, “He wasn’t. What’s a legend? Define a legend…If Dr. Dre, right now, died, we would say we lost a legend, right? Based on what? Numbers, right? Body of work, right? How many albums did Nipsey drop? One album, right? This not no personal shit I’m talking, right? This just real shit. The man died with a million followers, no radio hits, no platinum hits, right? No world tours, right? After he died, he went platinum, sold a bunch of records, his followers went up nine, 10 million, right? First of all, we got to define what the fuck a legend is, what the fuck a legend ain’t.”

He went on to say that before he died Nipsey was “on his way” to becoming a legend. But that “at the time of his demise…let’s keep it real. The truth could never be defined as disrespect. If it is, that means you lying to your muthafuckin’ self.”
