Hussle became known for his numerous mixtapes, including his "Bullets Ain't Got No Name" series, "The Marathon", "The Marathon Continues", and "Crenshaw", the last of which American rapper Jay-Z bought 100 copies for $100 each. After much delay, his debut studio album "Victory Lap" was released in 2018 to critical acclaim and commercial success, and was nominated for the Best Rap Album at the 61st Grammy Awards in 2019. Two posthumous Grammy Awards for the songs "Racks in the Middle" and "Higher" were awarded to Hussle in the Best Rap Performance and &lt;a href="Grammy%20Award%20for%20Best%20Rap/Sung%20Performance"&gt;Best Rap/Sung Performance&lt;/a&gt; categories, respectively, the next year at the 62nd Grammy Awards.
