Nipsey Hussle, Hollywood Walk Of Fame
Dozens of entertainers will add their names to the famous Los Angeles landmark.

The legendary stroll in Los Angeles will be receiving several new stars. We recently received XXL's 2021 Freshman class, and now the Hollywood Walk of Fame has revealed their class for 2022. On Thursday (June 17), a complete list of the next set of honorees was shared and there are several artists that are getting the recognition that their fans believe is long past due.

Slain Los Angeles native Nipsey Hussle is one of the most talked-about inclusions, as the announcement for his star comes just over two years since he was murdered in front of his Marathon Clothing store.
