Now Nipsey Russell, on the other hand, was a great American.

A poem by Nipsey Russell ~

What is the secret of eternal youth?
The answer is easily told;
All you gotta do if you wanna look young
Is hang out with people who are old.

George Washington threw a silver dollar
Across the Potomac one day,
And ever since then, politicians in Washington
Have been throwing our money away!

The opposite of pro is con.
That fact is clearly seen.
If progress means moving forward,
Then what does Congress mean?

If you ever go out with a schoolteacher,
You’re in for a sensational night;
She’ll make you do it over and over again
Until you do it right.

The young people are very different today;
And there’s one sure way to know;
Kids used to ask where they came from;
Now they’ll tell you where you can go!

If a baby slept in a water bed,
It would be pretty grim;
You wouldn’t know if he was wetting the bed,
Or the bed was wetting him.

Spanking a child to get him to learn
Is something I cannot defend,
How can you knock any sense in his head
When you’re whacking him on the wrong end?

How old do you have to be to understand that “Nipsey Hustle” is a take-off on ‘Nipsey Russel’ (a black comedian from the 60s)
