LOS ANGELES — The Grammy-nominated rapper Nipsey Hussle was killed in a shooting outside his clothing store in Los Angeles, multiple law enforcement sources said. Two other men were in serious condition, and a suspect remained at large.
No further information was immediately available about the shooting at Marathon Clothing on Slauson Avenue in South Los Angeles. But just a couple of hours before the shooting, Hussle, 33, whose real name was Ermias Ashgedom, had tweeted, "Having strong enemies is a blessing."
A large crowd of people, many of them crying, gathered at the intersection as police and media helicopters whirred overhead.
One of them was Matthew Talley of Denver, the engineer and director known as Megatron. |

In 2018, Nipsey Hussle opened a STEM center and a coworking space called Vector 90 in the Crenshaw District. Now the avid Los Angeles Lakers fan is also another reminder that escape from the so-called ‘hood can be a fleeting dream for even the best of us.
And by all accounts, Nipsey Hussle was one of the best of us. Besides being an undeniably authentic rapper, he was a disruptor in the business of music, banking on himself by selling albums for $100 and for $1,000 each, respectively — moves that inspired Jay-Z to buy 100 copies of the former. He pumped resources back into his beloved Crenshaw neighborhood, including investing in the real estate that housed his Marathon Clothing store. His business acumen and philanthropy had become as legendary as his mixtapes and albums. |

TMZ has a blurry surveillance video of the shooting. From a distance, not graphic. But it is absolutely disgusting. Absolutely disgusting. I watched it twenty times and I’m like, I don’t see anything. Guy falling and people running. 20 times. Then I read the description of what’s on the video and watched it again. I’m like, what? This motherfucker snuck up behind him in between a couple of cars. It couldn’t have been a more cowardly pussy ass mother fucking thing to do. You watch that and you’re speechless. But then you’re going to get pissed._________________ Every woman who has ever been presented with a career/sex quid pro quo in the entertainment industry should come forward and simply say, “Me, too.” - jammer The New York Times 10/10/17 |

His ass was in court pleading not guilty and showing no remorse. My heart goes out to his family.

Nipsey Hussle’s brother found him dying. These are his final moments
Quote: |
“Because of that, the man was able to shoot my brother, start running, realize nobody out there had a gun, stop, turn back around, walk up, shoot my brother two more times, start to run, realize nobody had a gun, nobody was responding, ran back up and shot my brother three more times, shoot him in the head and kicked him in the head and then ran off,” Samiel dissected.
“If somebody would’ve been there — if I would’ve been there — I would’ve shot back,” he said. “I just wish I would’ve been there.” |
