T.I. & Meek Mill Defend Nipsey Hussle’s ‘Legend’ Status Following Wack 100’s Comments

    Wack 100 has consistently spoken out about the late Nipsey Hussle, although his often inflammatory comments haven’t exactly been well received.

    Over the weekend, Wack was stopped outside of The Game’s 40th birthday party where he was asked about the slain rapper. He proceeded to explain why Nip wasn’t a legend. 

    T.I. and Meek Mill caught wind of Wack’s comments and quickly came to Nip’s defense, with Meek tweeting, “Nipsey a legend and the definition of real black man!”

    Tip took a more scenic route to drive his point home.

    In a new Instagram post, the Hustle Gang boss shared the dictionary definition of the word “legend,” which is defined as “a traditional story sometimes popularly regarded as historical but unauthenticated” or “an extremely famous or notorious person, especially in a particular field.”

    Tip elaborated in the caption, explaining why Nip actually is a legend. Wack’s argument primarily revolved around the number of album sales an artist had at the time of his death, which Tip refutes.

    “This shit say Nipsey all over it,” he wrote. “Record sales and #1 hits ain’t the only barometer for legendary status. IMPACT is what’s important. Although his notoriety DID grow exponentially more after his demise… his impact is undeniable.”

    Nip was shot and killed on March 31 outside of his Marathon Clothing store. His funeral was held at the Los Angeles Staples Center and drew thousands of people. It marked the first memorial held at the famous L.A. venue since Michael Jackson’s death in 2009.

    1. Weak Mill and Total Idiot T.I. are the most hyped up pos’ in the hip hop game right now. You don’t get this high in the game without doing some s-it to get there. These two have zero talent. If the people only saw how much these two clowns are the biggest puppets, they would just fade away into obscurity. One gets rescued by whitey Robert Kraft while crying he got locked up. The other is a hymen detective and a complete retard always bitching. Stop giving these dbags your cash and attention. I’m done with them after this comment.

      1. Right. “Weak Mill” and Total Idiot have ZERO talent yet, here you are commenting about these two men who don’t even know you exist. I wonder who is the hater in all of this? And I also wonder what YOUR talent is? Ruffling feathers on a Hip Hop website? Trolling on a website? I’m sure Mom and Dad is very proud of you. Those two niggas have more money, bitches, cars, and all of that shit than you do. You sound like a hater son. Imagine defending a dude whose name is WACK 100.

    2. Don’t these clowns got a hymen to inspect or some shit smh stfu nobody cares what these ass hats think!

    3. I’m not here to debate on Nipsey’s legend status, that’s subjective. I’d like to talk about T.I aka “The Hymenator”. How does this clown think he’s some authority on hiphop or even more cringe….politics??? This fool may have money from his music but intellectually speaking he’s an idiot. He proved to once again what an idiot and a weirdo he is by going and broadcasting to the world about his hymen investigations on his daughter…..even into her adulthood smfh.

    4. That’s all Wack wanted. Attention. Now he’s gonna act tough with all the ‘higher hierarchy’ rappers. Nipsey repped the Rolling 60s, where they are at now? Gangs are irrational, anti-evolution and stupid.

    5. Personally I don’t think he was a legend at the time of his death. He was a semi popular rapper that was doing some good community stuff that most never heard about. He didn’t change the game with his music like other legends have. It was a terrible death and he seemed like a good cat with a dope future. TI and Meek both make wack music so who really cares what they think.

    6. People are on Nippseys dick so hard lol. Wether he is a legend or not, do these grown men really feel the need to argue about a fucking opinon haha? BTW, legends in music generally have at least one amazing classic album.

    7. nip aint that good at a true mc dude is wack at best put him against real legends like big l or big daddy kane dudes lyrical ability is sub par at best people ridin dudes dick cause he died

      1. You sound dumb bro it’s not about being the best fucking MC he was much more than that he was on financial freedom if you don’t understand what the man was about don’t speak on it

    8. He’s not a fucking legend….jesus christ. Love the definition thing tho, that’ll show’em…just be sure to ignore it when that game of semantics sticks it in your ass Cliffy McSnitchpants. He was only famous and notorious in the hood that had him killed…the hood is an extremely small portion of life and is not capable of cementing legendary status alone. Literally nobody gave a shit about Nipsey outside the hood…then they killed him, so………oh well

      1. I call bullshit. If nobody gave a fuck about him outside the hood then why was his music revered worldwide? Why did he have such a huge memorial service? Why did people all around the globe hold vigils for his passing? Educate yourself, just because you didn’t understand what nipsey was about, don’t downplay his impact.

          1. You see the definition and besides a legend is whomever you want it to be despite your opinion bc that shit don’t matter

    9. I thought victory lap was ok. Its great he was doing some good in the community, however his only “impact” in hip hop was because he was killed and the world saw it. RIP but dont let the sadness of the event change facts.

      1. It’s not about a musical impact he was a great leader and was teaching the WORLD financial freedom not just hip hop

    10. Hip hop/rap music is arguably the most hypocritical genre of them all. Game shows respect to Nipsey’s memory but his manager doesn’t? These are all fake people, if you ask me! While everyone is entitled to an opinion, how come Game doesn’t call his manager to order or Wack doesn’t call Game to order? One venerated him while the other disrespects him? Hypocrisy of the highest order! Something is just wrong, I tell you.

    11. Had never heard of Wack 100 until he mentioned the name Nipsey Hussle. That says it all. Your entire relevance right now is based on saying this mans name out your mouth. Speak something positive or shut up.

    12. XXXtentation a legend tho? But not Nip?? Foh I think some truely don’t know his catalogue… And also how TF fuck can someone be semi popular when not only his last album was Grammy nominated it was received highly on all media platforms. All before his death

    13. Yea they also probably think they’re like legends too. Hip Hop has less than 25 true legends. Any more Ian diluting the meaning.

    14. If u got to debate his status as a legend. Then he is not a legend. How did Nip change rap music. How did his music influence the world. Did Nip usher in a new era of rap music. In 10 -15 years, will people still listen to his music or will he influence the next generation of rappers. I
