Hypnotized with Hatred: Boosie Spoke on Rappers Dying in Their Own City (RIP Nipsey Hussle)

In our famed 2016 interview with Boosie, he explained why he left Baton Rouge after becoming a target in his own city. He detailed how he started having problems with the police, who he said stole from him and constantly pulled him over. Boosie then stated one of his most famous lines from the interview, which is prominent amid the news of Nipsey Hussle's untimely death. Boosie says, "Wherever you're from you'll get hated the most. Most rappers die in their own city. It's a fact," adding, "They hate you for no reason. They hate you for your success. If you were a local rapper and you didn't have much, they would love you."
