Lauren London Launches ‘Forever Stronger II’

Lauren London has seemingly entered a new chapter in her life. The actress, who has been through tough times with the loss of her partner, Nipsey Hussle, has embarked on a new adventure with purpose.

In collaboration with Puma, London released her ‘Forever Stronger’ clothing campaign which has now dropped its second collection. The garb line contains “a powerful manifesto emblazoned across unisex hoodies, long sleeves, and kids’ tees- a physical representation of hope and optimism.”

The concept draws inspiration from London’s hometown of Los Angeles. The first collection of ‘Forever Stronger’ dropped in 2021. The latest launch includes the classic hoodie and T-shirt with co-branded designs, in addition to a tiny blue heart. The heart is also a personal touch from London, a reminder that people are not defined by their struggles.

Lauren London created ‘Forever Stronger’ to honor those who “persist in the face of adversity, embracing the world with unrelenting compassion and endurance.”

The full collection is available on PUMA and in select retailers.

Lauren London talks about ‘Forever Stronger’ and the new joy in her life

Along with the release of ‘Forever Stronger II’, London also recently hosted an affirmations workshop for LifeCamp Inc. She recently did an exclusive interview with ESSENCE, giving an update on her life and what makes her happy.

“I love nineties music and I love really good food,” she said. “I’m really simple now. I love Disneyland and roller coasters and I love coming home and it’s quiet and I can turn on ‘The Golden Girls.'”

“I’m hella boring,” London expanded. “I’ve been through too much sh*t. It’s time for boring in my life. I think there’s pressure on feeling like I have to be doing so much to feel at peace, but simplicity brings me peace.”

The 37-year-old actress and model also explained what ‘Forever Stronger’ represents to her.

“That just means for me, like no matter what you go through in life, you are stronger from it,” she explained. “You’ll forever be stronger in life. Every hurdle you come across, you are meant to climb over. And whatever it is, may you be forever stronger from it.”

Wack 100 Says Kodak Black Was Allegedly Shot Over Lauren London Comments

For those that don’t know, Kodak Black was recently shot at Justin Bieber’s party in Los Angeles during Super Bowl weekend. Over the last week, rumors surfaced that Toronto rapper Pressa’s team may have been involved.

However, during a recent interview on Clubhouse, Wack 100 stated his belief that an LA-based gang was behind the shooting. He also seems to believe that the shooting was over comments made by Kodak about Lauren London, following the death of Nipsey Hussle.

“Lauren London that’s baby, though,” said Kodak in April 2019. “She ’bout to be out here single. She fittin’ to be a whole widow out here. I’ll be the best man I can be for her. I’ll give her a whole year. She might need a whole year of crying and sh*t for [Nipsey].”

According to Wack, someone apparently still harbored resentment for Yak over his comments and waited until the Florida rapper was in LA to shoot him.

“Ni**as out here trippin’ on Kodak, man. On some clout chasing sh*t,” Wack said. “Talkin’ ’bout, ‘What’s that sh*t you said about Lauren London?’ Man, get the f*ck out of here. But Kodak got off!”

Kodak since the shooting

It seems like getting shot hasn’t kept Kodak down, however. The Super Gremlin artist took to Instagram live on February 19, putting his leg wound on display and shrugging off the danger of the incident.

“Quarterbacks get sacked too,” Yak said during the live. “Listen bruh, n**** done popped me. Stop playing. This sh*t pu**y. But at the end of the day, alright, n****s take they licks.”

Kodak is currently on probation as a result of his 2019 weapons case. His original sentence was commuted after a presidential pardon from Donald Trump during his last days in office. In a video from Jan. 21, the Florida rapper celebrated being free for more than a year for the first time in his adult life.

“Since I was 14…I wasn’t never able to catch a whole year out on the streets,” he said. “To stay out celebrating a year of freedom, caught that bi*ch. Instead of being in and out of juvie, detention center program, go*damn county jail, prison, sh*t like that…I see everybody doing the 10 year challenge, so this is a big accomplishment for me.”
