Follow Scottie: https://www.instagram.com/sccottiee/ https://www.tiktok.com/@sccottiee?lang=en On this episode of Scottie & FRNDs, Scottie sits down with Blacc Sam, brother of the late great Nipsey Hussle and key figure behind The Marathon. They talk about Nip’s visionary pivot from Bullets Ain’t Got No Name to The Marathon, how that shift changed the energy from street chaos to inspiration, and how the brand grew into a global lifestyle movement. Blacc Sam opens up about stepping from behind the scenes to the front, carrying Nip’s blueprint with integrity, and protecting the legacy for the family and the community. He breaks down the evolution of The Marathon into music, clothing, real estate, Marathon Burger, and new moves like the Long Beach grand opening with Snoop Dogg & the Broadus family and an upcoming Times Square, New York location. They also discuss the meaning of Lucy (Nipsey) Hussle Square for the city, the neighborhood, and anyone coming from similar circumstances. Sam gives an inside look at the official Nipsey Hussle documentary, built from years of unseen footage and crafted strictly on the family’s terms, and explains the significance of Prolific, the Nipsey x Bino Rideaux project Nip sequenced himself. Rounding it out, they tap into the Marathon Run Club and how Nip’s “the marathon continues” philosophy is now a real-world lifestyle of fitness, discipline, and community.
