Blueface and his manager Wack 100 dropped by No Jumper to talk about Blueface’s career. But, the interview switched gears when Adam asked about Wack 100’s recent comments on Nipsey Hussle’s death. A conversation on the late rapper leaked online revealing Wack 100’s controversial thoughts. All of a sudden, the session turned from a Blueface interview to a Wack 100 interview.
Wack 100 implied that rappers that represent gangs are not necessarily the ones to get their hands dirty in the hood.
“Everybody is not the shooter, everybody is not the fighter,” Wack 100 told Adam. “Some are the hustlers. You got 50 percent of the people there to make the hood look deep that’s straight cowards, busters…”
“Nipsey’s a rapper, Game is a rapper,” he continued. “If something happens in Cedar Block where Game is from, Game is not going to be the go to guy to go retaliate on the block…The fighter may be totally different from the shooter.”
Wack 100 suggested that Hussle was dealing with the shooter and that’s the culture of LA gangs.
“If I approach somebody and say, yo you a snitch, I’mma be ready for that,” Wack 100 said on No Jumper. “You’re not going to walk away from me because I already made my mind up that I’mma do something to you.”
Adam22 tried to make sense of the situation that happened to Hussle when he asked Wack 100 whether there should’ve been some loyalty to the hierarchy, making Hussle untouchable, since Nip and Shitty (the alleged murderer of Nipsey Hussle) both came from the same place.
Then Wack 100 said something that was profound and mind-blowing. “Nipsey is from one of the notorious gangs in Los Angeles. The biggest killer of Rollin 60s is Rollin 60s. So, what you’re talking about don’t make sense.”
Wack 100 also blasted LA radio stations saying that they were fake for basically jumping on the bandwagon when Nip died, but not showing him love when he was alive.
“You got a man who died with a million followers and no radio hit and no f**king platinum plaques. But, because everybody started talking like it was a gotd*mn Popeye’s chicken sandwich, everybody jumped on the bandwagon and now he done went 10, 20 times platinum.”
Indeed, Wack 100’s sentiments are viral material and definitely part of a larger discussion that reaches beyond Hip Hop. Adam played the situation very calm, cautiously asking questions and even suggesting at the end of the interview that Wack 100 didn’t say anything “crazy”.
However, the whole time, Blueface nervously laughed and showed slight signs of disapproval. But, he didn’t dare voice too much of his own opinion with the exception of saying that the interview was going to go viral.
We’ve seen this story before. When support staff wants to be the star. Throughout most of the interview, Wack 100 talked about his importance in Blueface’s career.
The sense of entitlement and expected allegiance is one that many Hip Hop managers have tried to use to control the artist and his finances.
Birdman and Lil Wayne. Suge Knight and Tupac. Diddy and Biggie. All of these managers wanted the spotlight just as much as the talent and it never seems to work out.
The moment a management artist dispute or disagreement happens, the artist ends up either being a continuously sedated drug addict, suffers financial disaster or at the worst, dies.
Hopefully, Blueface and any other young rapper will wake up in time to take control of their careers and keep the manager and their spotlight separate, especially if they’re highly opinionated.
