The Game pays tribute to the late, great legends Nipsey Hussle and Kobe Bryant in a new stop motion animated video for “Welcome Home,” which features Nip.
The track was on The Game’s latest album ‘Born 2 Rap’ and includes a posthumous verse from Nipsey Hussle. The Game has been public about how Nipsey’s death has taken an emotional toll on him, saying, “If I’m writing a poem, if I’m inspiring people, if I post a picture of him it’s because we had a moment,” he told us last summer.
“I’m not saying that I was Nip’s best friend in the world. No. He had a squad of people that he came up with. We from two different sides of the track. I’m from Compton, he’s from South Central. But the day I met Nip, all the way till the day he passed, it was nothing but love,” he says.
The video shows The Game in his native town of Compton, while Kobe is shooting some hoops and Nip joins him on the court. This scene can only give us some imagination on what may be happening in heaven right now.
This is an incredible video that pays homage to two of LA’s greatest who have recently passed but will always be remembered. R.I.P. LEGENDS.
