Documentary by Nipsey Hussle Released Before the Opening of The Marathon (Collective), THC and CBD Retail Store
Rapper Nipsey Hussle passed away as he had started his legacy within his music career by branching into entrepreneurship. Although he has been gone for over 3 years, the fruits of his labor are still being felt. Next month, The Marathon (Collective), a THC and CBD retail store will be opening in Los Angeles and a documentary has been released in anticipation of the grand opening.
According to an Instagram post from The Marathon Clothing, the documentary (seen below) has been released a month before the grand opening of the family and friends-owned business, led by his older brother, Samiel “Blacc Sam” Asghedom. The retail establishment is scheduled to open its doors on June 18 at 7011 Canoga Ave. in Los Angeles, CA.
“The Marathon (Cultivation) documentary is live on @youtube.
We will be having a grand opening for it’s first official The Marathon (Collective) flagship dispensary on Saturday, June 18th.
7011 Canoga Ave
Canoga Park, CA 91303

Mark your calendars!🏁”
According to Complex, a screening of the documentary took place last week and his brother made a statement pertaining to The Marathon (Collective).
“This is something we always spoke about,” he stated. “Nipsey, Fatts, Adam, and I had a goal to get a legitimate licensed store and have our brand in other stores across the state. We’re so honored to be able to fulfill the dream.”
The 33-year-old Hussle was killed in front of his Marathon Clothing store, located in the Hyde Park neighborhood of Los Angeles. A petition was started to rename the intersection of Slauson Avenue and Crenshaw Boulevard near Hussle’s store, Marathon Clothing, to “Nipsey Hussle Square.” On the day of his funeral, the City Council announced it was set to be renamed Ermias “Nipsey Hussle” Asghedom Square to honor him and his contributions to the neighborhood.
