Nipsey Hussle fans will have to hold their breath a lil’ longer for the release of his debut album, South Central State of Mind. The project was scheduled to drop on December 21st. But before your face turns blue, Nip offered an explanation via his Twitter page.
South central state of mind has been indefinitly postponed. I’m droping “The Marathon” on 12 21 2010. I’ll explain because yall matter to me: SOUTH CENTRAL STATE OF MIND IS MY MASTERPEICE. WHEN ITS DONE U WILL GET IT. UNTILL THEN #TMC. THIS IS NOT MY LABELS DECISION, ITS A CREATIVE MOVE TO ENSURE THAT I GIVE MY TRUE BELIVERS MY BEST OFFERING ON MY DEBUT ALBUM. MY LIFE HAS BEEN SUCH A STRUGGLE, AND I ALWAYS SAID IF I EVER MAKE IT TO WHERE I AM NOW I WOULD DO IT FROM THE HEART.
Take ya time. If it ain’t ready it ain’t.
I’d rather see you take ya time and be happy, than rush it unhappily and have it be a frisby.
iss understandable… he wanna get a collabo wid gucci…
cant have an acclaimed debut LP widout tha best in tha game…

TRANSLATION:
THE RECORD LABEL SHELVED THE PROJECT INDEFINITELY. THEY HAVE NO CONFIDENCE IN THE PROJECT. NO WAY IN HELL THEY WAS GONNA PUT OUT THAT ALBUM AFTER THAT WEAK HORRIBLE SINGLE WITH LLOYD. I SAID IT WAS MY DECISION NOT TO PUT OUT THE ALBUM TO SHOW FACE. IT WASN’T REALLY MY DECISION…IT WAS THE MACHINE’S.
DON’T HATE ON MY OPINION!!!!
this nigga looks like a cartoon
^^Like a cartoon of a westcoast gangsta
Cotdamn, the industry is wild….my two cents: don’t give your project a date if its not ready….
That doesn’t sound like snoop/s Doggstyle
But hey it/s from compton-compton.from the hearth
GANGSTER RAP IS DONE IN 2010 YA DON’T GET IT GANSTER RAP DOES NOT SELL YOU SEE
2011 is the year of the westcoast! detox, r.e.d., kendrick lamar, nipsey, yg, problem, glasses, crooked, jay rock, snoop, e-40 & too $hort, mistah f.a.b. so its good nipsey!
lol FAIL shit was supose it drop LAST YEAR he’ll never drop
lol nipsey u my nigga u already know, but lol looks like u never gon drop
dont become the next Saigon
@mac DIESEL co motherfucking sign
Co-Sign @ Villian, I think everybody is going back to the drawing board after that one.
An album i am definitely waiting for. Ima Nipsey fan.
i thought “hussle in the house” couldve been bigger. that was a great introduction record.
this dude label shelved his ass.
@B.Dot
its was a mixtape track over a Kriss kross beat! thats as big as its gonna get….
he shoulda pushed the Drake track imo… guess he wasnt comfortable selling 40,000 1st week
AT LEAST HE GAVE US AN EXPLANATION…….ALL THESE MUTHAFUCKAS THAT JUST WANT THE MONEY FROM US POST PONE ALBUMS FOR NO REASON..
This album better be the greatest west coast album since chronic because I been waiting too long
i Think mac Diesel said it all, honestly nobodies checking for that dude. I said it before and I’ma say it again. When Kanye beat 50 cent with Graduation, it sounded the end of hardcore gangsta rap. Nobody really cares how hard you hussle, how many grams you’ve sold or how many tecs and glocks you got. That shit is dead. If you look at the hiphop artist that have gone platinmum after that you’ll see that most of them stayed away from the hardcore gangsta shit. it just isn’t selling anymore. Take Nikcy Minaj for example. If you look up some old videos of her you’ll see that she was on some shoot up em up bang bang shit. No she totally switched her demeanor. Because she realizes that shit don’t sell anymore.
I hope that’s so. Hopefully it don’t go all Detox too. It’s a shame gangsta rap don’t sell no more. :/
Cuz that would suck ass if Nipsey’s album was g at first, and now he go change it all to make it so it’ll “sell.”
Yea yea. @ what johnblack said. Truth
[…] Spotted at RR […]
I forsee no confidence in your album. You’ll wait too late and everyone will forget about you. Watch and learn!!! FYI, I am from Los Angeles and I will not be waiting for some gangsta rap unless it is flames…
WHY AM I NOT SURPRISED SMH
Nigga said Kanye beat 50 then gangsta rap fell off… the wayne came and sold 1.5 million saying he was a blood?
it’s not the genre it’s the timing…. and NH60d Nipsey will have his time…
ATTN: ALL RAPPERS – stop promoting albums that are not ready to go. kanyes album was basically finished in march and came out in november. thats how your SUPPOSED to do it
