Justin Credible and DJ Sourmilk connected with ZEN and Puma to pay homage to the late, GREAT Nipsey Hussle.

The PUMA x NIPSEY for ZEN video finds Justin Credible & DJ Sourmilk reminiscing on their favorite memories of Nipsey Hussle as well as Hussle man’s impact and legacy on the city of Los Angeles and the culture as a whole.

Not only does the video feature these highlights from the LA Leakers, but it also shows off the PUMA x The Marathon Clothing collection that was just reissued to honor the life and legacy of Nipsey.

Justin Credible talks about how Nipsey recorded the intro record for the LA Leakers that airs every night on Power 106 to start the liftoff show.

It’s amazing that after 10 years, that record still sounds as fresh and as timeless as the day it was first recorded. That speaks highly of the skills and the heart which Nipsey Hussle brought to his craft.

DJ Sourmilk talks about the first time he traveled out of the country with Nip for a show in Japan. Milk talks about recognizing the dedication which fueled Nipsey’s entire career.

Milk says that Nip and 4 of his team members all shared one tiny little hotel room in Japan and Nip was almost sleeping in the hallway of the hotel that night before he got up early and went to soundcheck for the performance.

Both Justin Credible and DJ Sourmilk talk about the impact Nipsey left on not only his city, but the entire culture as well. Nipsey’s incredible legacy can be seen in all of the interviews and the music he left behind.

Nipsey is now the blueprint for how the majority of artists approach the business side of the culture. Nipsey was able to elevate and inspire so many countless people that his mind state and business practices will live on through the actions of the generations that will come after him for years and years.

Nipsey’s memory will always live on, and PUMA, THE MARATHON CLOTHING, THE LA LEAKERS & POWER 106 are all proud to play a small part in helping Nipsey stay alive in the hearts and minds of those he inspired.

Check out the video and photos below.

Kid Ink dropped a new track recently called “Holy Grail.”

The cover art for the single has a hand, with iced out rings, reaching out from the grave towards the moon and looking like Return of the Living Dead.

Kid Ink goes in on the hook, singing, “I just made another sale, product falling off the scale, money got me under spell, follow me I lead the trail.”

The synths in the production give ample room for Kid Ink to flex some dope boy raps. This should be another banger for his bat gang following to blast out their car speakers while maneuvering through the city.
