Nipsey Hussle’s Brother Blacc Sam Gives Documentary & Posthumous Music Update
Nipsey Hussle fans might be getting new material from the late rapper soon.
While sitting down with Power 106 L.A.’s Brown Bag Mornings, his older brother Blacc Sam spoke on the upcoming documentary that was teased a couple years ago and revealed that a Nipsey and Bino Rideaux collab album should be coming out this summer.
When it comes to the highly anticipated documentary, Sam expressed wanting to make sure the family had full creative control. “That’s been the journey,” he said. “It’s not for sale. People can’t throw some money at us and tell us, ‘It needs to be two episodes or three episodes.’ The creative is not for sale, so we just been kind of like backing away, turning down a lot of offers, and putting our head down and working. And once it’s finished correctly, its looking like maybe eight episodes, then we’re going to come out and release it.”
As far as new music is concerned, he said that a new project with fellow L.A. native Bino Rideaux is in the process of being completed, but made sure to add a disclaimer first. “Also with the music — 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 said.
“He did something with Bino and there’s a new project that we’re about to release and this is a project that he had with Bino that was pretty much 80 percent finished. So, the team came in and got some unreleased music that he did with Bino and tightened it up. It sounds amazing and it should be coming out around this summer.”
