Jay-Z Spoken Word Tribute to Nipsey Hussle: 

 

Gentry your own hood, before these people do it
 Claim #eminentdomain and have your people movin’
 That’s a small glimpse into what Nipsey was doing
 For anybody that’s still confused as to what he was doing
 The neighborhood is designed to keep us trapped
 They red line us, so property declines if you live by blacks
 They depress the asset and take the property back
 It’s a ruthless but a genius plan in fact
 So now we fighting over scraps
 Crabs in a barrel, but crabs don’t belong in the barrel and they ain’t never tell us that
 So in the barrel, we gonna act like we act
 We can easily get out the barrel if we stand on each other’s back
 Whoever gets on top, as long as they stay attached
 They gonna pull everybody out—I was doing just that
 I told Neighborhood Nipsey stay close
 There’s a 100 million dollars on your schedule, lay low
 Tell your team to be on point in the places that they go

I never dreamed that he get killed in the place that he called home

How we gonna get in power if we kill the SOURCE?
 
 Y’all like to run off on the plug, so of course
 That ain’t lit, that’s a means to an end
 Me and my team was playing the plug ahead of plan
 Sometimes we was only making a $1000 a joint
 That ain’t no money, but that ain’t main point

So those 92 bricks was only 92 thou

SO yall can close your mouth, it ain’t nothing for yall to wild (wow)
 
 But it is something to study
 We was chasing our goals, not chasing money
 Niggas chasing hoes, we find that funny
 I pull up in the Rolls, that hoe gon’ want me
 But I don’t want no hoe, I want a wife
 Somebody to bounce these ideas off at night
 I be going to sleep hoping Nip visit me
 That young king had a lot of jewels to split with me
 And we ain’t gotta leave the hood physically
 But we gotta leave that shit mentally

 - Jay-Z (HOVA at the Bside at Webster Hall concert)
