Nearly six years after his untimely passing, the first posthumous album from Nipsey Hussle is currently on track to release this summer.
Appearing on Power 106’s “Brown Bag Morning Show” on Wednesday (February 26), his brother Blacc Sam explained that the album will be a collaborative project between the late Hussle and Bino Rideaux, which was recorded prior to the former’s death.
“If Hussle didn’t actually do the verse or work with the person or put together the blueprint for the project, we not doing it,” he explained. “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.”
Sam continued, “So the team kind of came in, got some unreleased verses and music that he had done with Bino and just tightened it up. It sounds amazing. It should be coming out around this summer. The team is real excited. We just finished going over all the stuff for the last three weeks with everybody.”
Hussle has appeared in posthumous singles such as the Judas and the Black Messiah soundtrack cut “What It Feels Like” with Jay-Z, and “Diamond Mind” with Dr. Dre and Ty Dolla $ign from “Grand Theft Auto Online: The Contract.”
In 2019, Nipsey Hussle was gunned down outside his clothing shop in a calculated, premeditated fashion by a man upset over a discussion about snitching.
