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. "It ain't just Los Angeles. He was an inspiration that was bigger than Los Angeles," Talley said. "You see all these people out here? ... "He was really cool," Talley said. "He was a dope individual every time I met him."

Nipsey Russell was great.
“Ermias Ashgedom
An illegal?”
No, he was born in Los Angeles. Judging from the fact that he was shot in the Hyde Park “Area” of LA, he was one of Maxine Waters “constituents!”
A “Banger” gets Banged,
Ain’t no Crisis.
You shall know them by their works. Matt. 7:16.
Never heard of him. RIP. Live by the gun, die by the gun.
Truth be told that black lives and their well-being matter more to Trump and his supporters than the murderous thug gangs who deal in ending them.
I be Nipsey!!
Trump the dope...
He ain't no thang.
Trump the dope.
He don't bring the rope.
Trump the dope...bitches.

Trump the dope...

Trump the dope.

Guy wasn’t worthy to shine Nipsey Russell’s shoes.
Agreed........
Rappers are controlled by thegangs
He would have given you the shirt off his back.
crisis?....yeah,crisis,like stepping in dog sh*t while cleaning out the pen.
Sh*t happens,but when you run around with thugs,sooner or later,ya get done.
“Truth be told that black lives and their well-being matter more to Trump and his supporters than the murderous thug gangs who deal in ending them.”
No kidding! But that “well-being” only extends to decent people, not this trash. Let them continue to kill each other , just don’t let any stray bullets claim any of those decent people.
Oh well...
Did you just make that up or is it “rap” lyrics?
At least in this NBC piece it sounds like he was becoming "woke" in recent interviews realizing he had been "prey to ignorance and self-destructiveness" that was sold to him by the entertainment industry of his youth. Maybe one day he could've joined #blexit, but we'll never know now.
Seems like he was trying to improve things in Crenshaw. I liked that he realized his culture (his words) overvalued athletes and entertainers when they should be looking at achievers like Musk & Zuckerberg (his examples).
RIP & best to his children
Think I had him mixed up with Nipples Muscle.
Absolutely, In that culture they are gangstas first at the age of 10, and then grow up to emulate their gangsta rapper heroes for an “honest” living. But they will always be part of that original gang they grew up in and the criminal culture. We are going on three generations of this gangsta rap culture now.
