Lauren London has revisited the chain of occasion that introduced her and Nipsey Hussle into one another’s lives, explaining that it began with a purchase order.

During an look on the podcast A Really Good Crywith Rahdi Devluki revealed on Tuesday (September 10), the actress recounted their assembly, after she had unsuccessfully tried to attach with him.

“I do remember how we met,” she begins. “I was on a set and at the time he had dropped this Crenshaw mixtape that all the ladies on set, like the glam was listening to. They were all from L.A., we were in Atlanta shooting. And I thought, it would be really cool if I got them his mixtape and all the Crenshaw stuff. I reached out to a friend of mine, Danny, like, ‘Hey, do you know Nip? Could you reach out and see if I could get a discount on some of this stuff cuz I’m kinda buying in bulk.

“Nip never reached out; his management reached out to my friend. And I didn’t get the discount either. So, I was like, ‘Ok, I guess he’s not tryna give me, that’s fine. But I bought the stuff, gave the girls their wrap gifts. I ended up following him on… I don’t even know what social, my memory’s so wack, maybe it was Twitter? So I start following him and he DM’d me like, ‘Hey, thanks for the support, ‘preciate you. Send me your sizes so I can send you a personal box. So then he gave me his number and so I text him, because I was like, I don’t do DMs.’”

Asked by host Devluki if she thought her late companion was cute on the time, London confessed that there had been an ulterior motive behind her resolution to observe him on social media.

“Yeah, I thought he was fine. First of all me following was very… he took the bait.”
