In this inspiring episode of Dem Vinyl Boyz, we celebrate the legacy of Nipsey Hussle by diving into his powerful debut studio album, Victory Lap, released in 2018. Known for his dedication to his community, entrepreneurial spirit, and unfiltered storytelling, Nipsey poured his life experiences into this album, creating a body of work that resonated deeply with fans and the hip-hop world.
Victory Lap features standout tracks like "Grinding All My Life," "Hussle & Motivate," and "Dedication" (featuring Kendrick Lamar). Each track reflects Nipsey's journey of struggle, perseverance, and triumph, weaving together stories of ambition, loyalty, and resilience. The album’s West Coast sound and Nipsey’s raw, authentic lyricism earned it critical acclaim and a Grammy nomination, solidifying his place in hip-hop history.
In this episode, we’ll explore the making of Victory Lap, discussing Nipsey’s independent approach to his career, his impact on the music industry, and how his work inspired a generation. We’ll also reflect on his legacy as both an artist and a community leader, whose vision continues to influence and motivate fans worldwide.

For decades, people who enjoyed music on vinyl records instead of CDs or MP3s were considered dinosaurs. While we like moving at 33 RPM, the rest of the world rushed and went to digital. Not only did vinyl refuse to die but demand is at its highest since at least 1991. It's a good thing Dem Vinyl Boyz saved all their records from back in the day. Because, now we have the biggest collection of 12-inch records on the radio. Dem Vinyl Boyz love the joy of sliding a classic album out of its cover; the crackle of a needle just dropped into a groove; the careful way to pick up and flip a record when a side ends. On the podcast each week we feature a different piece of music history on vinyl record. Dem Vinyl Boyz experience the album front and back, giving you commentary and music facts along the way. Put your ear buds in and let us take you on a musically journey listening to the greatest music of all time and the history of how it became legendary. Dem Vinyl Boyz! Respect The Technique
