The Hip Hop community is remembering Nipsey Hussle a year after he was fatally shot in front of his Los Angeles clothing store.

Lauren London, widow and mother to his son Kross Asghedom, posted two photos to Instagram earlier this month leading up to the anniversary.

“Honorable. Powerful. Beautiful You Are,” she wrote. “Miss you every second of every day and even in my sleep. Until we are together again …. I’m holding it down.”

West Coast gangsta rap legend Snoop Dogg – who Nipsey admired and collaborated with throughout his career – shared a snippet of a Nipsey interview on Big Boy’s Neighborhood.

In the clip, Big asked Nipsey whether he was approached to play Snoop in N.W.A’s biopic Straight Outta Compton. Nipsey admitted he turned it down because one of the laws of branding he learned is “you don’t walk in no great man’s shoes.”

Big Boy commented on the post, remembering the Nipsey interview fondly.

“Magical moments,” he wrote. “He understood so much at such an early age. Miss you, Nip. Love you, Snoop.”

Meek Mill – who teamed up with Roddy Rich earlier this year for a tribute song titled “Letter to Nipsey” – also shared an Instagram post in remembrance of Nip. The image shows both rappers on stage during Meek’s 2019 Motivation Tour. The two were supposed to put out a collaboration album before Nipsey’s untimely death.

In the caption, Meek pays tribute to Nipsey’s “marathon mindset,” simply writing, “#themarathoncontinues. #nipforever.”

Neighborhood Nip was gunned down in front of his Marathon Clothing store on March 31 last year, after alleged killer Eric Holder shot him six times. After pleading not guilty to all charges, Holder is expected to go on trial in April.
