They gotta interview his mom so we can hear how he's a good boy that goes to church every Sunday and would never hurt a fly.

Big surprise.

He also unfortunately appears to have been a racist, sadly . Aren’t there better role models out there ?


“On Victory Lap's Kendrick Lamar collaboration “Dedication,” Hussle raps, “Royalties, publishing, plus I own masters/ I'll be damned if I slave for some white crackers”

Yeah, they're are better role models out there. Unfortunately many black people would consider most of them corny, cheesy, sellouts, ect. The black community takes waaaaay too much direction from rich spoiled athletes, entertainers, and ex-cons, that yell out loud with half the facts.

The real ironic thing is, at one point Nipsey Hussle made a song called "F--- Donald Trump". I think its fair too say he much bigger problems than President Trump.

Why is he a role model again? Because he opened a business in the hood that sells $100 t shirts where I'm sure every employee is a friend or family member. That's not providing a service to the neighborhood. There are real role models in the world.

Wow they caught him pretty damn Fast. Looks like he wasn't really hiding at all, he was trying to check himself into a mental health facility
Too late for that Bro, he's going to at minimum be charged for with Murder 2

I still think TMZ did more to catch This guy than LAPD did.
This dude took a good mans life because he was called a Snitch(Allegedly)
Bloods and Crips together have already killed 2 of Eric holders family members in retaliation
I personally think thats what flushed him out in the end.

On twitter, in regards to the suspect a lot of people are saying "the streets will get him , not police". It'll be interesting to see what happens.

I see the Mayor and LAPD are putting a lot of tweets out about this. Too bad every killing in L.A doesn't get as much attention.



Last week 26 people were shot and 10 killed in L.A

It sounds crazy I know, but in that same sentence he also said despite these murders crime is still down by 17% since 2018. I think what we're seeing now is people are becomimg less desensitized to murders in our urban centers, and many younger generations understand how serious murder really is. You really see this with Chicago even though Chicago has

Thanks for the update. Definitely got scared quick and went to get checked in. However, the universe said nope lets go to where you are SAFE aka Prison for now. I really do wish the streets got to him first though. A lot of people are hurting right now, and his toxic masculinity of being called a "snitch" pushed over the edge to Murder a great man.

I sincerely wish there was a moral panic directed at gangs and gang violence, the same way moral panic has engulfed other parts of everyday life. I only heard of his name, and I gave up listening to ̶r̶a̶p̶ all music a while ago, but I do remember hearing "stop the violence" rhetoric before he was born. People in numbers can put it to an end, or imagine the same thing happening to their children and others in 10 years or so.
