Snoop Dogg drops the “Nipsey Blue” song.
Snoop Dogg returns with some new material as he drops a new track called “Nipsey Blue” which is dedicated to his friend Nipsey Hussle who was shot dead last year. The track is released on the occasion of the 35th birthday of Nipsey Hussle.
“Nipsey Blue,” which borrows Dorothy Moore’s 1976 album “Misty Blue,” isn’t Snoop’s first musical homage to Nip. Snoop released “One Blood, One Cuzz” off his I Wanna Thank Me studio album about five months after Nipsey’s deadly shooting in 2019, with the lyrics “For God so loved the world, he sent us a decent Crip/The late, great Neighborhood Nip.” Snoop Dogg told Billboard that the song was inspired by the togetherness he saw in the aftermath of Nipsey Hussle’s murder.
