Nipsey Hussle: Actress Lauren London gives Emotional Tribute to her late Partner at his Memorial (Video)

American actress, Lauren London gave an emotional tribute at the memorial service for her longtime boyfriend, rapper Nipsey Hussle which took place at the Staples Center in Los Angeles on Thursday night.

The Los Angeles rapper whose real name is Ermias Davidson Asghedom was murdered on Sunday, March 31, 2019,  outside of his clothing store, in the Hyde Park neighbourhood of  LA, south of the Crenshaw area.

In her eulogy, London read a loving text message she wrote on Jan. 21 to her boyfriend, which she explained was written while Hussle was sleeping one morning. The copy of the text message was also featured in the funeral’s pamphlet.

“I want you to know I feel real joy in my heart when I’m around you. I feel safe around you. Protected. Like a shield over me when you’re around, I am totally myself when I’m with you,” London had written. “You’ve made me into more of a woman. You’ve given me an opportunity to really love a man,” said London, who was dressed in all white with black sunglasses.

After reading the text message, London told the crowd, “His soul was majestic. He was the strongest man that I ever knew. A gentle father, a patient leader, a divine light. He was brilliant. He researched everything, completely self-taught, constantly seeking knowledge.”

She continued: “Ermias, I’m in bed with you while you’re sleeping and I wanted to tell u something. I want you to know I feel real Joy in my heart when I’m around you. I feel safe around you. Protected. Like a shield over me when you’re around. I am totally myself with you (which is prob why I’m annoying) because I don’t wear a cool mask anymore lol.”

 “You’ve made me into more of a woman. You’ve given me an opportunity to really love a man. You’ve been with me while I’ve been sick. Through my fears. U have encouraged me and inspired me to reach higher. I’ve learned so much more about myself with you. You’ve been my turn up and my church. I wouldn’t want to go thru this journey with anyone but you. I look up to you in a lot of ways and strive to educate myself more like you have. And when we’re at odds…. I feel defeated and sad, knowing we are so much better than that.”
