Nipsey Hussle and others inducted into Hollywood Walk of Fame 2022

The late American rapper, activist, and entrepreneur, Nipsey Hussle has been selected as one of 38 honorees called forth to join the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

He is joined by actress Carrie Fisher, chosen in the motion picture category, as the other person who was selected posthumously.

DJ Khaled, Black Eyed Peas, Ashanti, George Clinton, Avril Lavigne, Los Huracanes Del Norte, and Martha Reeves are also among other artists selected in the recording category.

Radio personality Ellen K, who was honoured in the past, announced the new honorees on the Walk of Fame’s website.

This current crop was selected from among hundreds of nominees at a meeting held on Monday by the Walk of Fame selection committee and ratified by the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce’s board of directors on Wednesday.
