Ep.20 - RIP Nipsey Hussle

In a week where: 

1. Top Boy Season 3 IS FINALLY coming!!! 
2. Over 6 Million people signed a UK Government petition to revoke Article 50, only for it to be rejected.

In the Music segment, (3:53) the legendary MC Shan snaps on Instagram, saying "Fuck Hip-Hop". Praising the fans and firing all the shots at the business side of Hip-Hop. Something that is mentioned later in the show.

In the Film/TV segment, (18:23) the BAFTA TV Nominations dropped last week, I go through the list of nominees and kick myself for not watching the shows I've been meaning to watch over the year.

In the Sports segment, (36:30) The Bahrain Grand Prix came & went, the highlight being Charles LeClerc's unfortunate mechanical fault killing his chances at his first career F1 win. But along with the reaction towards this and Mick Schumacher testing for Ferrari & Alfa Romeo. I take shots at the F1 fans that overblew LeClerc's finish and the F1 for what I see as fast-tracking Mick Schumacher simply because of his surname.

For the Life segment, (46:44) we circle back to Hip-Hop business and link it to Nipsey Hussle's legacy not just as a rapper, but as a businessman. His death highlights a lot of things, but I wanted to highlight how he used his platform in the most genuine way possible.
