Leader. Real. Motivational. Inspirational. These are all just words to some people, but to Nipsey Hussle living these characteristics every single day was a way of life. We lost an important one y'all. And it hurts. We hadn't planned on recording today, but we decided that turning all this energy into something productive and inspirational sounded like a fitting way to pay our respects to the legend we just lost. Some of the Nipsey related and inspired topics we touched on include:
- The overall need for us as human beings to do better as a society - The INCREDIBLE legacy that Nipsey leaves behind not only in the realm of music, but in countless other areas - The balance between the idea of "destiny" and reality and learning to live life somewhere in between - Embracing today vs. planning for tomorrow and how time on this earth is not guaranteed - The importance of mastering your energy and learning how to use it in productive ways - Music's incredible ability to act as a religion - Chasing your dreams NOW - + SO much more.
We hope this discussion can help other people like us who are struggling to cope and can lead to personal growth in a time of heartbreak. It is absolutely what he would want. Rest In Power, king.
