Jhené Aiko has joined the many members of the Hip Hop community who are choosing to push back their musical releases out of respect for Nipsey Hussle.

Aiko revealed her postponement while responding to a fan’s Instagram comment asking about the release date of her new music.

“Out of respect for Nipsey, I will be postponing the release of the new music I planned on releasing this month… until I feel the time is right,” she wrote. “I want to take this time to remember and reflect on the life of the legendary Nipsey Hussle. Thank you for understanding. Long live NH.”

Aiko joins the likes of ScHoolboy Q, YG and Machine Gun Kelly in delaying the release of music following Nipsey’s death.
