Ermias Davidson Asghedom (August 15, 1985 – March 31, 2019), known professionally as Nipsey Hussle (often stylized as Nipsey Hu$$le), was an American rapper and songwriter from Los Angeles, California. Rapper from Crenshaw, Los Angeles. Nipsey Hussle grew up on Crenshaw Blvd & Slauson Ave in South Central, Los Angeles. The Area is well known to be associated with the Rollin' 60's Neighborhood Crips, a gang that Nipsey had grown up to become a member in. He is of Eritrean ethnicity. Nipsey's first recorded mixtape was Slauson Boy Volume 1, and soon became the name of his own record label, [l=Slauson Boy Records] (later followed by [l=All Money In No Money Out]). In 2008 Nipsey released two mixtapes, Bullets Ain't Got No Name Vol. 1 and Vol. 2, before signing with Epic Records. In 2009, his debut single, "Hussle In The House", was released.

The Marathon was released instead on December 21, 2010. In 2010 he appeared on the song "We Are the World 25 for Haiti". He was chosen as one of XXL Magazine's "Annual Freshman Top Ten", a selection of ten up-and-coming artists as "Most Determined" And continues to have success with the release of his new single "Feelin Myself" featuring Lloyd. The first single off The Marathon mixtape is "Keys to the City" (Produced By E.N.G. & Djay Cas).

LYRICS

[Verse 1]
Look, don't ever talk about the shit I'm 'bout to do
Don't ever lie to hoes, I just tell the truth
Don't ever put the pussy on a pedestal
This money is the motive, everything after the revenue
I swear to God that's what you'd better do
‘Cause in this life, it ain't no tellin' what's ahead of you
These niggas done went Federal
From young niggas killin', it's all sectional
Now this is the reality we wrestle with
Where every nigga down to die for what he represent
Where every murder is a mission rooted in revenge
You make it out and want peace, you set precedents
And then you start accumulating presidents
You lookin' like a legend, especially when your record spins
And you pull up in a 6 with a set of twins
Ain't like I never thought I'd see you in the set again

[Hook]
Please, I'm gettin' paid, but that ain't change nothin'
That ain't change nothin' …
Look, I'm gettin' cheese, but that ain't change nothin'
That ain't change nothin', my nigga…
Look, I'm gettin' paid, but that don't mean nothin'
That don't mean nothin' …
Look, I'm gettin' cheese, but that don't mean nothin'
That don't mean nothin' …

[Verse 2]
I swore to tell the world if I made it out
The truth about these LA streets and all that they about
The paranoid emotions, will they stake us out
When we pull up thick in some foreign shit out Geisha House?
The losses that we took when they raided the house
The bitches that I sent when I laid it out
The only important thing is the paper route
The model, I embodied the prophesy as I played it out
Look, smilin' faces rockin' diamond bracelets
Murder cases, duck probation when your pockets major
I'm stuntin' in somethin' that cost a lot of paper
I ain't fuckin' with nothin' that don't look like a spaceship
Look, now that's the realest shit I ever spoke
Pull up at the shopping centre with a centrefold
My windows up, my ceiling's closed
Choppers still owe me if you didn't know, nigga
