Los Angeles just lost a big one with the murder of Rapper Nipsey Hussle.


https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.tmz...ren-london-yg/

Nipsey Hussle was surrounded by family and famous friends when he was pronounced dead at the hospital after being brutally ambushed by a gunman.

Los Angeles may not be violent like before,but it still has one of the most serious gang cultures in the world.

This wasn't gang related, just a personal dispute that escalated. The suspect is from the same hood. RIP to Nip.

That was my point.The gang culture runs deep in Los Angeles so gang on gang beef isn't out of the norm.

Still gang play a role in it...

There is this study that say if you surround yourself with sketchy people, you put yourself in arms' way... Bot Nipsey and chitty cuzz were gang member, they were childhood friend.

Word is the guy approached Nip to ask him to feature in his music, Nip told him that he can not because he is a snitch... The guy took it badly and you know the rest...
Apparently Holder was a known shooter (the guy you call when you need to kill someone) who went to jail, snitched there and just got out... He wanted to make it in the rap industry but his lyrics were trash...

I doubt they were childhood friends, they just happen to roll in the same set. Everything that happened that day is sketchy.

I think the media classifies any crime perpetrated by a gang member or gang as "gang-related'.

Atlanta is at 25 for the first quarter of the year, which is 5 more compared to the first three months of 2018. At this pace, we're on track for 100 for the whole year. Hopefully better luck in 2020.

"The death of Nipsey Hussle has caused gangs in Los Angeles to come together to honor his legacy. Members from the Bloods, Crips and more gangs around the L.A. area, put their differences aside to participate in a “Unity Walk”
