THE SOURCE reports that GQ made a compilation of an oral history of Nipsey's final days, where the publication had London share fond memories of him.

Speaking about the last thing he gifted her, Lauren said:

"A couple of days before he passed, he bought me three books. One was a book about parenting. He loved Power vs. Force. He swore on that book and got a lot of games from it. I mean, between him and I, we damn near had a library."

CheatSheet also reports that although London refused to speak about the last day she spent with Hussle before his demise, she recounted how they met.

The ATL star revealed that she and Nipsey met after she purchased his Crenshaw Mixtape. She said that their chemistry came natural, and they decided to make it official.
