April 13, 2010 BMI recently welcomed Nipsey Hussle (pictured) to its growing family. One of today’s most sought-after West Coast rappers, Nipsey has already been featured in the New York Times, graced the cover of hip-hop’s largest magazine XXL, performed at BET’s Hip Hop Awards with Snoop, and was featured on Snoop’s recent release—all prior to dropping his own official album. Nipsey has earned steady buzz from tastemakers, industry executives, hip-hop fans, and bloggers alike, and currently, he is hard at work on his highly anticipated debut for Cinematic/Epic. Dubbed South Central State of Mind, the album features touches from heavy-hitter producers Justice League, Cool and Dre, J.R. Rotem and more, and the first single, “Fellin’ Myself,” features Lloyd and was produced by 1500 or Nothin’.
