Nipsey Hussle Reveals Who His Top 5 Dinner Guests Would Be [WATCH]

Nipsey Hussle had a feast with RapUp as part of their “Sound Bites” segment at Salazar restaurant in Frogtown, located in North East Los Angeles. During their sit down Nip revealed who his top 5 dead or alive dinner guests would be.

Being a rapper and a business man Neighbahood Nip not only elected rappers as his guests but went more wide range with historians, philosophers, and business minds. Taking a second to think it over Nip chose music mogul Quincy Jones, Albert Einstein, Nikola Tesla, Tupac Shakur (of course…must have), and can’t be complete without a lady, so Oprah Winfrey was his final choice.

Watch the video below and see his reasons for each one.

Nipsey Hussle Hints At ‘America’s Most Wanted’ Joint Project With YG [PEEP]

For a while now fans of  Nipsey Hussle and YG have begged for a joint project from both L.A. artists. They have collaborated on a plethora of singles since they broke into the industry. Both rappers definitely have the talent and chemistry to make it happen.

In a recent interview with Billboard Neighbahood Nip revealed that their “FDT (F**k Donald Trump)” song was intended to be on ‘America’s Most Wanted’, their collaborative project. It ultimately landed on YG’s album.

“”FDT” was for the YG and Nip Hussle album, and you heard how crazy that shit came out? He put that on the album and was like, “F**k that, I’m done.” And I understand that. Those sessions were sessions for the collab project. We went into Mustard’s studio every day. Young Thug came through. A lot of songs that wound up on different projects happened in there,” he explained.

He continued saying that the possibility of the collaborative project which was originally announced in 2013 was still a possibility.

“The idea is definitely not dead. Life happens. He got a solo career and I got a solo career. He got a kid and I got kids. That’s something the West wants, and we’re gonna do it, and we’re gonna call it ‘America’s Most Wanted’,” he said.

After hearing “Last Time I Checked” off Nip’s ‘Victory Lap’ album, it is safe to say that the desire of a collaborative project has been revived. I would love to hear a Terrace Martin produced, YG & Nip collab album featuring some of the West Coast’s heavyweights.
