YG Says He Honors Nipsey Hussle Privately: ‘I want to let the homie rest’
YG has been doing promo for his upcoming album My Life 4 Hunnid. He was recently interviewed by The Los Angeles Times and shared some insight into his state of mind regarding his friend, the late Nipsey Hussle.
YG says he has chosen to celebrate Nipsey in private and through his music. “I want to let the homie rest,” he said. “I’m not gonna fall back and just talk about bro in interviews. Not just in breath, but on my records.”
The Compton MC paid homage to Nipsey in his album 4REAL 4REAL on the track “My Last Words (Nipsey Tribute).” The track was actually a spoken word from Nipsey’s memorial service.
YG also shed some insight on his 2016 protest anthem “Fuck Donald Trump,” that has been gaining traction ahead of the 2020 election. YG recalled a conversation with Nip before the track was released. Unsure about whether or not to put it out, YG asked Nipsey what he thought. According to YG, Nip said “We already get backlash. We already can’t do this and this and this. So f— it, let’s make it worth something.”
In the interview, YG also shared what fans can expect of his upcoming album. He says he has grown out of the turn-up and club records that made him famous, and feels as if he needs to talk about the current political climate in the United States.
“I can’t come with my regulars, turnt up and lit,” he explained. “I had to go tap into that. I’m so used to being like ‘I don’t give a fuck, fuck you, boom bam.’ Now I’m like, ‘Damn, I’ve got to really go get into some emo shit.”
My Life 4 Hunnid is set to release this Friday, October 2nd. Last week YG dropped the first single from the album, entitled “Out On Bail.”

Tiffany Haddish’s African Grocery Store Visit Sparks Debate, Is She a Trailblazer or Out of Touch?

Tiffany Haddish is at the center of controversy after a video of her visit to a grocery store in Zimbabwe went viral. In the clip, Haddish marvels at the store’s size and the availability of items like sugar cane and organic strawberries, which she seemed to find surprising.
The reaction from viewers has been mixed. Some applauded her for challenging stereotypes about Africa, while others mocked her for acting as if the continent lacked modern amenities. One user on X quipped, “Tiffany Haddish, the first woman to discover a grocery store in Africa,” while another expressed confusion over her reaction, questioning why she seemed surprised by the store’s offerings.
In response to the backlash, Haddish took to X to clarify her intentions. She emphasized that her goal was to “demystify” Africa and encourage more Black Americans to visit.
This incident follows another controversial trip earlier this year, when Haddish visited Israel amid ongoing conflicts, a move that drew criticism for its insensitivity. Despite the recent backlash, Haddish remains active, with her latest project being the memoir I Curse You With Joy, which has garnered positive reviews for its candidness.
In an era where public figures must tread carefully, it seems Haddish’s words continue to spark debate, whether she’s on a global adventure or sharing her personal experiences.

At San Diego Comic-Con on July 27, Robert Downey Jr. stunned fans with his unexpected return to the Marvel Cinematic Universe, revealing himself as Doctor Doom in the highly anticipated “Avengers: Doomsday.” The excitement didn’t stop there, as Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige also teased a follow-up film, “Avengers: Secret Wars.”
The reveal set social media ablaze, with MCU fans ecstatic to see RDJ back in action. However, the celebration was tinged with controversy as Jonathan Majors—who was slated to play Kang in the now-controversial “Avengers: The Kang Dynasty”—has been trending on X. Majors’ recent conviction for assault and subsequent departure from Marvel has led fans to reflect on his past statements about wanting to share the screen with Downey.
In a 2023 interview with Lifehacker Australia, Majors expressed his admiration for RDJ, saying, “I would love to be across from him on screen… His portrayal of Iron Man is so fascinating.” As the dust settles on Downey’s big reveal, fans can’t help but wonder about Majors’ reaction and what could have been.
