Wednesday marked the two-year anniversary of the tragic day that west coast rapper, Nipsey Hussle, was tragically shot and killed in his hometown of Los Angeles. The Hip-Hop community still mourns the loss of Nipsey and on Wednesday, the tributes continued to pour in all over social media. This was from fans, other artists, and also the ones who had the opportunity to be able to collaborate with him on songs. Nipsey's girlfriend at the time, Lauren London, has also taken to Instagram to give a very powerful tribute.

Laurenposted a throwback photo of Nipsey back to when he had braids. He was also hanging out by Hyde Park in Los Angeles. For Lauren's caption, it was very touching.

"The Day Of Ermias’ transition changed the course of my life forever. 2 years, and it feels like yesterday and eternity all at the same time. Grief and Healing have been constant companions on this journey. In Honor of His life and demonstration... May all of Heaven exalt Your name for all You did on Earth and beyond.  Brave and Beloved Soul, Ermias.  You are missed deeply.  You are loved immensely.  You will forever be. 

I love you eternally. Your Boogie."

In February, the Los Angeles Sentinel reported that Lauren was allegedly pregnant. This immediately had social media in a frenzy as fans wondered who Lauren was dating and what the gender of the baby would be. She quickly took to her Twitter feed to shut all of the pregnancy speculation down, though.

"Woke up to some straight bullshit. Rumors ! Lies ! On a woman trying her best to heal?! Please stop. I’m NOT pregnant."

Lauren is also giving back in a major way in her latest collaboration with Fashion Nova. Last week, she revealed that the two would be donating $50,000 for their “Women On Top” female empowerment initiative that would end up giving away $1 million dollars in grants and scholarships to women.

"Today I recognize the work of @babyyhairz and @djosh_kosh who will receive a $50,000 donation to their foundation @dreamersyouth. May they continue to bring mentorship, empowerment and healing to the youth of our marginalized communities."

In 2019, Nipsey Hussle was nominated for a Grammy for Best Rap Album for his debut studio album, "Victory Lap." It did not receive the win but in 2020, he finally posthumously won two GRAMMYs. These were for Best Rap Performance and Best Melodic Rap Song. His "Racks In The Middle" single featuring Roddy Ricch won Best Rap Performance and Nipsey's appearance on DJ Khaled's "Higher" which also included John Legend won Best Melodic Rap Performance. This month, Nipsey was nominated for Best Rap Performance on Big Sean's "Deep Reverence" single.
