Nipsey Hussle Looks To Buy Back The Block [PEEP]

Nipsey Hussle and his business partner Dave Gross have closed escrow to buy the strip mall that contains his flagship Marathon Clothing store on the corner of Slauson and Crenshaw.

It’s obvious that Neighbahood Nip wasn’t playing when he said “Just my section might throw a billi, operation buy back the 60’s” on his verse in Rick Ross’s “Buy Back The Block.” We even see that Nip stayed true to his word when he told us that he’s “closing escrow twice this month, both commercial units” on his recently-released single “Racks in the Middle” featuring Roddy Ricch.

If you know Nipsey’s story and his rise to fame, then you are aware just how significant it is for him to own this location, as he and his brother Blacc Sam were known for hustling in that same exact parking lot, getting arrested, and even owning a T-shirt store a few years back.

Nipsey has reported that he plans on knocking the plaza down to build a six-story residential building on top of the commercial plaza where a new and improved Marathon Clothing store will still be housed.

Nip’s new purchase of the Crenshaw and Slauson plaza is a great addition to his astounding collection that already includes a FatBurger restaurant and a 40 unit plaza on West Slauson.

Salute to the Grammy-Nominated rapper/entrepreneur/mogul.

Nipsey Hussle Designs Customs ‘Crenshaw’ Uniforms For Fatburger (Video)

Nipsey Hussle’s  has collaborated with Fatburger and designed new uniforms for Fatburger employees.

“Fatburger being an iconic brand in L.A., our core values aligned. We had an idea to co-brand the Crenshaw collection from the MarathonClothing with the Fatburger logo,” Hussle told MTV News in an exclusive interview Monday at the grand opening of the restaurant on Crenshaw Boulevard and Slauson Avenue. The Fatburger logo, it’s like the Hollywood sign or it’s like something you come to L.A. and you think Los Angeles. We didn’t want to get in the way of that,” Nipsey said. “We just wanted to represent our area and also the Crenshaw collection.”
