Kodak Black is facing backlash after making comments about Nipsey Hussle’s girlfriend Lauren London. Los Angeles’ top hip-hop station Power 106 announced Monday that they would be banning Black’s music from their station. The radio station isn’t alone in its stance. Rapper Big Boy took to Instagram to share his thoughts about Black’s comments, according to a report published Monday by TMZ. A video of Black talking about London surfaced this weekend. The rapper said, “Lauren London that’s baby, though. She about to be out here single … She’s finna be a whole widow out here. I’ll be the best man I can be for her. I’ll give her a whole year. She might need a whole year to be crying and sh-t for him.” (RELATED: Celebrities React To Nipsey Hussle Being Shot And Killed) Black ended up releasing an apology statement, but it wasn’t enough for the radio station or Big Boy.

Hussle was shot and killed in Los Angeles one week ago (March 31). He was in a long-term relationship with actor Lauren London, with whom he had a son, Kross. In an Instagram Live broadcast yesterday (April 6), Black made remarks that suggested he would give London a year to grieve for Hussle before romantically pursuing her. “She about to be out here single,” he said of the actor. “I’ll be the best man I can be for her. I’ll give her a whole year. She might need a whole year to be crying and shit for him.” Black has since addressed his comments. “If I disrespected you, Lauren London, in any shape or form, I’m sorry,” he said in a follow-up video. “Even though I didn’t […] Yeah I say what I said.” Now, Justin Credible, a DJ from LA’s Power 106 station has pledged not to play Black’s music anymore. “We stand with the family of Nipsey Hussle and are appalled by the disrespectful and poor comments made by Kodak Black,” he tweeted. “With that, Power 106 will not support Kodak Black’s music.” We stand with the family of Nipsey Hussle and are appalled by the disrespectful and poor comments made by Kodak Black.

The former told the rapper in an Instagram video to “fix that shit quickly, expeditiously.” He added: “If I see you, I’ma say it to your face. You outta pocket, n***a. Get your motherfucking self together.” The Game accused Black of disrespecting Hussle’s “name, legacy, [and] his family.” He warned him to keep Hussle and London’s names “out of your fucking mouth.” “This new generation, y’all fucked up in the head,” he added.

During a live broadcast on Instagram on Saturday, Kodak announced his intentions to romantically pursue London, with whom Hussle had a young son. "I’ll be the best man I can be for her," Kodak said. "I’ll give her a whole year. She might need a whole year to be crying and s--- for him." Kodak Black performs onstage at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York, on Oct. 23, 2018.

I’ll try to be like the friend if you need to holla or a shoulder to lean on. She can call my line." The comments were met with swift backlash, including from rappers The Game and T.I. and Justin Credible, a disc jockey at Los Angeles radio station Power 106, who pledged to no longer play Kodak's music. "We stand with the family of Nipsey Hussle and are appalled by the disrespectful and poor comments made by Kodak Black," Justin Credible said Saturday. "With that, Power 106 will not support Kodak Black’s music." Later Saturday, Kodak issued an apology in a live broadcast on Instagram. "If I disrespected you, Lauren London, in any shape or form, I'm sorry, even though I didn't," he said. London has not responded to Kodak's comments. Hussle, 33, was fatally shot outside his clothing store in Los Angeles' Hyde Park neighborhood last Sunday afternoon. Two other men were wounded. The Grammy-nominated rapper, born Ermias Asghedom, was a beloved figure both in his native South Los Angeles and in the hip-hop community. His store has been transformed into a makeshift memorial by mourners. London, an actress and model, paid tribute to Hussle on Tuesday in an Instagram post that featured images of the rapper and their family. "I am completely lost," she wrote. "I’ve lost my best friend, my sanctuary my protector my soul ... I’m lost without you. We are lost without you babe. I have no words." On Thursday, prosecutors charged the suspected gunman, Eric R. Holder Jr., 29, with one count of murder, two counts of attempted murder and one count of possession of a firearm by a felon. He pleaded not guilty to the charges.<doc-sep>
Kodak Black has been banned from the airwaves of a Los Angeles radio station after making crass remarks about Nipsey Hussle’s girlfriend Lauren London. Over the weekend, Power 106, LA’s top hip-hop station, announced it would no longer play the 21-year-old’s music after he said he’d give the late rapper’s girlfriend a year to grieve before making a move on her. On Saturday, a video circulated online in which Kodak said, “Lauren London that’s baby, though. She about to be out here single … She’s finna be a whole widow out here. I’ll be the best man I can be for her. I’ll give her a whole year. She might need a whole year to be crying and sh-t for him.” It didn’t take long for the station to come down on the rapper. Later that day, DJ Justin Credible tweeted, “We stand with the family of Nipsey Hussle and are appalled by the disrespectful and poor comments made by Kodak Black. With that, Power 106 will not support Kodak Black’s music.” Soon after, the station posted a screengrab of the tweet to its official Instagram account, along with the comment, “We stand with #NipseyHussle and the fam🙌🏽🙏🏽S/O @justin_credible for telling it like it is.💯.” Always the provocateur, Kodak seemed to realize he’d gone too far and posted an apology to his Instagram story later that night. “If I disrespected you, Lauren London, in any shape or form, I’m sorry,” he said (via TMZ). “Even though I didn’t. And rest in peace to dude. Y’all already know what I said, dude encouraged me to do sh-t for the community. Anyhow, my bad to them two.” Nipsey Hussle, whose real name was Ermias Davidson Asghedom, was shot and killed in front of his Marathon Clothing store in the Hyde Park neighborhood of Los Angeles on Sunday evening. He was 33. The rapper is survived by London and two children.
