The Los Angeles rapper has been consistently dropping music for over a decade now. Since releasing his first mixtape Slauson Boy in 2005, he's put out a series of self-released mixtapes that included hits like the Drake-assisted "Killer."
First announced in 2012, but after multiple setback and label issues, the wait is over. Victory Lap is now available on Tidal, Spotify and Apple Music.
With 15 tracks in total, the follow up to last year's "No Pressure" mixtape features Kendrick Lemar, YG, Dom Kennedy and Cee-Lo Green among others.
Speaking on the project and its cohesiveness, Neighbourhood Nip said: "The topics is real consistent bro. It’s almost like one topic that I sliced up into sixteen different takes. It's the story of Nipsey Hussle," he said. “This dude who came from L.A., whose dad came from Africa, who was raised in the inner city of Los Angeles in the ’90s, when gang banging was at its peak, when all of the political riots, everything that was going on with LAPD, and all that stuff in L.A. was at its peak, but then who also was raised around books, whose mom put pressure on him to read, and whose dad watched CNN all day. It’s an interesting take on South Central.”
Singles “Rap Niggas” & “Dedication” with Kendrick Lamar, fans can now stream the West Coast-sounding production in its entirety via Apple Music. Hit play and let us know what you think.
