Nipsey Hussle Involved in Huge Brawl During Lauren London’s Birthday Celebration

Nipsey Hussle and his crew got into a scuffle at a Hollywood nightclub over the weekend.

According to TMZ, the rapper arrived at the club Nightingale in West Hollywood Sunday night to celebrate his girlfriend Lauren London‘s birthday, who obviously was there with him. One hour before the melee broke out, cameras caught Nip, London and rapper O.T. Genasis coming in, and everyone looked ready to celebrate.

But later, a group of men who seemingly had had words for Nip earlier in the evening approached him, and that’s when things got ugly. From there, haymakers were thrown, people were shoved and little separate brawls broke out in different areas of the club parking lot.

Nipsey was in the middle of it all, and there’s one part where he can be seen throwing some punches, but it’s hard to make out who he was hitting. There’s also a woman who’s trying to hold the rapper back, but it doesn’t look like it’s London.

Eventually, a police officer pulled out a taser gun and things immediately went from crazy to calm. Sometime later it was discovered that the men who approached Nipsey did so because they thought he was somebody else, so he was simply defending himself.

Neither Nipsey or Lauren has commented on the fight, and there’s a good chance they won’t, since it’s not really their style. But the actress did post a photo of herself inside the club, which showed her in a leather red dress that got plenty of attention.

Independent journalism doesn't fund itself.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
