If the Grammys constituted music's biggest night of 2019, the Nipsey Hussle memorial service that took over the same Staples Center served as its biggest day by zogblog
news helicopters whirred overhead. And tens of thousands flocked to the arena to mourn the death--and celebrate the life--of one of the most beloved figures in the recent memory of Los Angeles.
"While most folks look at the Crenshaw neighborhood where he grew up and see only gangs, bullets, and despair, Nipsey saw potential, he saw hope," declared Barack Obama in a letter read onstage by Nipsey's friend Karen Civil."He saw a community that, even through its flaws, taught him to always keep going. His choice to invest in that community rather than to ignore it ... is a legacy worthy of celebration.
Nipsey's Los Angeles legacy, however, isn't limited to music. He never made a secret of his history with the Crips, but after making it out of Crenshaw, he tried tirelessly to bring about peace in the streets. That was evident today as Snoop Dogg, long associated with the same gang, and YG, who has boasted connections to the rival Bloods, praised Nipsey in back-to-back speeches while echoing his call for unity.
