Like any youngsta raised in the streets of South Central, Nipsey Hussle found himself prone to the illigitamate ways of the streets. He shined shoes. He ran the streets and replenished them for a buck.

He did however, overcome that beast and is poised to become the next best thing on the west coast.

In this clip, Neighborhood Nip recalls how he earned that moniker and discusses what it’s going to take for him to generate interest in himself and the West as a whole.

Nipsey Hussle is putting in work like he wants to be the next big thing from the Coast. Not only did he drop a bomb ass mixtape to round out the third installment of his popular Bullets Ain’t Got No Names series, but he’s releasing a video from the collection only a week later.

The boy Nipsey is gettin’ it in isn’t he? Two days, two videos, who knows what might surface for the weekend. Peep the latest teaser video “Speak My Language,” which finds the youngsta somewhere in NYC.
