The song, a one-minute West Coast anthem, is set to release on streaming services at 3 p.m. ET on September 15. Originally from Victory Lap's \"Dedication,\" Hussle's verse was removed to accommodate a feature from Kendrick Lamar. The song showcases Hussle's journey, his pride in Los Angeles, and insights into his relationship with his mother. Hussle, a prominent figure in West Coast rap, was tragically killed on March 31, 2019, outside his Marathon Clothing store, with his murderer sentenced to 60 years to life in prison in 2022. The PROLIFIC album, released in August, debuted at No. 21 on the Billboard 200.",
