G.O.O.D Music's Big Sean is finding himself going through the emotions thinking about Nipsey Hussle. The hip-hop veteran has shared his deep sorrow dealing with the reality he can't shoot a "Deep Reverence" music video with the song's guest feature.
Big Sean Misses Nipsey Hussle
On Saturday, Sean Don went to his Instagram page to talk about the late, great Hussle. B.I. said he wished he had the ability to link back up with Nipsey.

Big Sean’s Kendrick Lamar Relationship
On the new “Deep Reverence” record, Sean Don references his relationship with West Coast rapper Kendrick Lamar. B.I. specifically reveals he spoke to Lamar following Hussle’s death in March 2019.
On the track, Big Sean references Kendrick Lamar. “After what happened to Nipsey I reached out to Kendrick/There wasn’t even no real issues there to begin with/Lack of communication and wrong information from people fueled by the ego it’s like mixing flames with diesel.” Sean downplayed rumored tensions between him and Kendrick in an interview with Joe Budden earlier this year.

Before You Go
A few days ago, Sean Don hit up Instagram to deliver huge news. B.I. said his latest studio effort would arrive heading into Labor Day Weekend.
DETROIT 2 is the long-awaited successor to Detroit, (2012), Sean’s penultimate fourth career mixtape.

Prior to DETROIT 2, all four of his albums – which also include Finally Famous, his RIAA platinum debut of 2011, and Hall Of Fame (2013) – debuted at #1 on the Rap chart. I Decided. (2017) Sean’s second consecutive album to debut at #1 across-the-board on the pop, R&B/hip-hop, and Rap charts, following landmark RIAA platinum Dark Sky Paradise (2015). Twenty88, his 2016 collab with fellow G.O.O.D. Music/Def Jam star Jhené Aiko, also debuted at #1 on the Rap and R&B/hip-hop charts.
