Jhene Aiko pushes back song release out of respect for Nipsey Hussle

Aiko, who was close friends with Nipsey, revealed her postponement while responding to a fan’s Instagram comment asking about the release date of her new music.

“Out of respect for Nipsey, I will be postponing the release of the new music I planned on releasing this month… until I feel the time is right,” she writes. “I want to take this time to remember and reflect on the life of the legendary Nipsey Hussle. Thank you for understanding. Long live NH.”

Nipsey was shot and killed outside of his Marathon Clothing store on March 31. A memorial service for the slain rapper was held last night at the Staples Center in Los Angeles.
