It’s no secret that Roddy Ricch and the late Nipsey Hussle were super close. Before blowing up off of his single “Die Young,” Roddy dropped his debut mixtape Feed Tha Streets, a body of work that would seriously impress Hussle and help foster a close friendship between the two rappers.
Fast-forwarding two years later, the two would release their first and last collab before Hussle’s untimely death. Their track,”Racks in the Middle,” would go on to get certified RIAA platinum and win Best Rap Performance at the 2020 Grammy Awards.
Since dropping “Racks in the Middle,” the Compton rapper has paid homage to the late rapper with a song called “Letter To Nipsey” off of his critically acclaimed album Please Excuse Me For Being Antisocial and a new custom chain.
The Elliot Eliantte designed chain features a picture of Nipsey placed in an iced out pendant with diamond-encrusted thorns wrapping around the picture.
