Never heard of him. Thought the name was a joke.

Sadly there seem to be a high rate of violent deaths among rappers.

Nipsey Hussell allegedly killed by Eric Holder, Jr. (no relation, I guess).

He was my second favorite on Hollywood Squares.

Nipsey Hussle was an LA rapper and a member of the Rollin’ 60s Crips street gang. I wasn’t familiar with his music (though I do listen to rap) but he apparently gained a lot of respect for some of his charitable work. He stayed in the community where he grew up, reportedly bought shoes for local school kids, paid to renovate area basketball courts and playgrounds, and funded funerals for local families who had lost members to violence.

If you’re in a gang I am assuming there is no time for a job?

The main reason this asshat gets any lingering face time in the media is because he was one of the characters behind the "F Donald Trump" song that was played everywhere back in 2016. He can rot.
