The second part of his name says it all. Nipsey Hussle is about that paper. As promised, the Crenshaw rapper put up hard copies of his recent mixtape Mailbox Money online at $1000 a piece. According to the L.A. MC he had sold 60 copies of the expensive CD as of Tuesday (Jan. 20).

I bet he would have been happy had 10 people bought it. Good for him.

i'm totally skeptical about this.

you'd think whatever fools that would shell out $1000 for the album would post a pic of the CD or even make a mention about purchasing it on some tweet or facebook account or something. i haven't seen anything yet.

i think he is just building hype.

i found the site he's selling them at, though. http://iamproud2pay.com" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
i wonder what paypal's fees are, if this is real.
if he made $60,000 in a week off of 60 items they'd probably flag his account.
they've done worse over smaller amounts / donations.

"There will only be 100 hard copy’s and they are $1000 dollars each. The 100 people that buy the P2P version will be granted access to a private advance listening session of Victory Lap at the secret Marathon Store we are going to open the day of the listening! More news coming soon."

wow, a chance to go to a listening party at a secret location. i'm sure travel expenses aren't covered.

Nipsey's pretty good. Didn't see anything special at first, but over time he's grown on me. He has some solid tracks.

Good promo if he gave 60 folks a 1,000 to pay for it.

He may eat a couple dollars off with paypal fees or whatever but it's worth the promo of being able to say hey I made 60k off a few cd sales.

He's got the money. So it makes sense to do it. In this economy, depending on the friends he has, not sure there's abunch of people just giving away 1,000 like that, but hey if they really felt generous and like supporting his moves then hey but I need to see Receipts!
