Initials on my wallets, smoking with my stylist
Custom german plates on all my cars cause bitch I'm balling
All in burning crosses, which royalty regardless
Honestly I'm honored just to represent the progress
Destined as I sing to you, I know what I may tell you
Martin Luther King Jr., hustle, let me dream through you
When I told my scheme to em, told me that I seem stupid
Empty engines need fuelling, yeah that was like my theme music
Now I keep them links Cuban, money talks, I speak fluent
Everybody buying Rollies, you can ask my team's jeweller
Life is but a dream to us, life is why they need music
Got it wrapped around the corner, looking like supreme through it
Cause when you cook it right, the fiends use it
Come take a look at life how we view it
You gotta start off in a cheap Buick
Then book a flight and see to it
That's first class, my first pass
It's big shit nigga like when birds pass
7 grams, I got to a bird fast
And Brian Herb stacks start busting on my church pass
DOA, you gonn be ok,
That's what my granny used to say but I ain't see a way
Sitting in the county jail I pray I see today
Most successful nigga – got an ‘S’ upon his face
Fuck the world, fuck the world
They hate a young nigga that could fuck your girl
They hate a real nigga when he touch a mill
Hate you if you fake, but hate you more if you real.
Nipsey Hussle, pseudonimo di Ermias Joseph Asghedom (Los Angeles, 15 agosto 1985 – Los Angeles, 31 marzo 2019), è stato un rapper, imprenditore e attivista statunitense. Considerato uno dei pionieri del movimento hip hop West Coast, Nipsey ha guadagnato fama per le sue rime introspettive e il suo impegno sociale nella comunità di Crenshaw a Los Angeles. La sua musica affrontava temi come la vita quotidiana nelle strade, l'imprenditorialità e la lotta contro la violenza. Oltre alla musica, Nipsey era un imprenditore di successo con diverse attività commerciali, tra cui la sua etichetta discografica All Money In e una catena di negozi di abbigliamento. Era anche un attivista per i diritti civili e il miglioramento delle condizioni di vita nella sua comunità. La sua morte prematura a causa di un omicidio ha suscitato grande dolore e indignazione in tutto il mondo, con molti che lo hanno ricordato come un'icona culturale e un esempio di successo contro ogni ostacolo. Tra le sue canzoni più rappresentative ricordiamo "Victory Lap", "Double Up" e "Last Time That I Checc'd".

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
Sweden and the United States are two countries far from each other, thousands of kilometers separate them, the language, culinary and sporting traditions, I don't feel so categorical about the landscapes, not knowing all of America there may be states that have the same reliefs of the country of northern Europe, but on one thing I am sure
