The outpouring of love and grief from Nipsey Hussle’s fans since his death on March 31 hasn’t gone unnoticed without a silver lining.
HipHopDX confirmed with the late rap star’s team that the business has netted $10 million since he was gunned down in front of the empire he built.
In the meantime, the surviving crew members are working tirelessly around the clock to service the insurmountable list of orders.
“Thank you to everyone who’s placed an order with us these last couple of weeks,” Nipsey’s team said in an Instagram post to its 500,000 followers. We appreciate the unprecedented outpour of support. It means alot to our team and family.”
It also thanked customers who have paid homage and dollars to Nipsey’s vision and that the Marathon Clothing brick and mortar store will reopen after its reels back from the whirlwind of his untimely passing.
The Marathon team is still accepting purchases orders via the brand’s website and plans to get orders shipped as quickly as possible. The profits from the purchases will go to the investment fund called “Our Opportunity.”
The fund and program is the brainchild of the late MC and his business partner David Gross, which helps community leaders “of every large, majority black city to, in a systematic way, acquire and develop transformative projects.”

I only understand this if it’s used to inspire. But in reality, don’t count another man’s pocket
I hope no bloods gave into that business. Dam shame if they did!!
Blood no love for cuz
Read Deuteronomy 28:15-68 and ask yourself, “Who are these people?”
Read Isaiah 42:22
22But this is a people robbed and spoiled; they are all of them snared in holes, and they are hid in prison houses: they are for a prey, and none delivereth; for a spoil, and none saith, Restore.
Once again, Who are these people LOCKED UP IN PRISON HOUSES?

You and Thecini1 are weak hoes!!! You bitches the rest gang culture is soft!! I be yall ass got ran out the hood with that weak shit you all be talking. Who tha hell is Israel? Get off my comment box with Cult shit hoe!
The store is closed to handle the massive orders. This heading is very misleading.
This speaks volume! Nip was a perfect example of, we transition from this old world when our “work” is “complete”. Knowing who he was, his work was complete & I’m positive he was greeted with, “Servant, Job Well Done!!!” I love it! LLNH We love you forever!
Triple Phi OG, you ain’t on shit cuz. Weak ass slob think your dumb ass somethin. Dumb fuck, how you not know Nipsey and YG were close as hell. Game had mad love for Nip…. Shut the fuck up before a real Crip in your area handle your out of pocket ass.
Fuck Peace!! Blood aint riding for no CUz like that!! You new school thugs are weak anyway!! Vegan gangsta ass!
Who talkin peace Cuz? Cause i spoke some facts on Nip, Yg and Game? Don’t know me Cuz.
Who da fuck is you Prince Charles? Who talkin peace? Ha i bet you ass ain’t got no name in the streets. Internet ass gangsta…. Stay typin hoe
The irony of a prick like you calling someone else an internet ass gangsta.
ViewStreetCrip4Life? We all know you’re an overweight nerd living in your mothers basement. You’re fooling nobody at all.
Triple Phi OG – Shut your stupid ass up. Grown people are trying to make change. You are what you are because youve always done what youve done, loser
Can ya’ll write one article without a typo?? Just one…
He was a clown. A snoop dogg impersonator, culture vulture. It’s time to move on
So was your momma
And your daddy still fucked wit her
fuck you man. That Victory Lap album was FIREEE!!
Why does it take someone’s death to bring people out in support. It’s not just a hip hop thing either. I look at all the positive things people have to say about Nip which is cool but where was the love and support when he was here? People need to get it together stop trying to big up people after they are gone when he was here you never saw all the articles about what he WAS doing for his community. You have to be a damn martyr to get some respect?
They saying his rides are getting repossessed. Something ain’t right..:
those clothes are fucking wack and overpriced!!! no one gave a shit about his crenshaw swag when he was alive.
I saw that shit all over gram before he passed so change ya name from “Truth Hurts” to “True Hater” #Bye
10 mill? In a few months? Only huge companies do that. Someone’s numbers are wrong.
well…when you are charging $100 for a tshirt that only cost you $6 to make and $200 for a hoodie that costs $9 to make…
NOT IMPOSSIBLE AT ALL. MICHAEL JACKSON MADE 100 MILLION IN 3 DAYS AS A DIRECT RESULTS OF HIS MUSIC BEING STREAMED ON LINE, OLD ALBUM RESELLING AND EVEN BY RADIO STATIONS DJ’S SPINNING HIS MUSIC PLACED HIM BACK ON THE CHARTS. YES, IT IS POSSIBLE…ITS JUST SAD THAT WE DONT SUPPORT THEM WHEN THEY ARE HERE. HIS CHILDREN WILL BENEFIT AND HIS LEGACY WILL ALWAYS LIVE ON.
$10 Million in months?- Knock -Knock, IRS , IRS, IRS,…..TAXES, PLAGIARISM FEE…
Knock, Knock,
Who is It/
IRS….
He should of had that support when he was alive. Why did this young man that had such a Big impact on the world let alone the communities had to die to receive this kind of support.. I’m just saying let’s SUPPORT WHILE THEY ALIVE NOT WHEN THEY DIE AND can’t see the impact they Left.. Just my opinion
maybe because he didnt have the same exposure as he did when he died??
This is actually a shame … Funny, that was going to by a shirt from here LONG AGO, but just never came around to it … Anyone sporting this gear NOW are All LAME-Os – Band-wagoners …
True but better late than never and his children can still benefit from it….but I understand why you would feel that way. I dont live in LA.
