The 33-year-old rapper, whose real name was Ermias Davidson Ashedom, hailed from Crenshaw, Los Angeles. He was nominated for a Grammy for best rap album in 2019 for his debut studio album, 'Victory Lap'.
Hussle's family will be involved with the making of the documentary, which will be DuVernay's first since since "13th" (2016).
The documentary will be produced by DuVernay and Hussle's Marathon Films.
