Some of hip-hop´s biggest and brightest stars took to social media on Sunday to mourn the death of Nipsey Hussle, the Grammy-nominated rapper earlier shot and killed in South Los Angeles, city officials said. Hussle, born Ermias Asghedom, was shot multiple times outside his clothing store in LA´s Hyde Park area around 3:20 p.m. local time, authorities said. The 33-year-old entertainer was rushed to a local hospital, where he was later pronounced dead. The rapper´s debut studio album, "Victory Lap," received a 2019 Grammy nomination for Best Rap Album, but hip-hop sensation Cardi B ultimately took home the win.
Gee... What a shame... Not.

Okay, I´ve never heard of the guy, but I can´t help but wonder what kind of lyrics were in his joyous rap songs? Did they come back and bite him on the butt...Bigly?

In this man´s case it is a shame. He turned his life around and wanted to help others. He was scheduled to meet the LA Police Commissioner and LAPD Chief today to talk about ways to reduce gang violence and help kids. The real shame is that a useless slug took the life of someone who could make a difference in his community.

No one can make a difference in his community, #9. Example - Kanye West. He was excoriated for daring to support Trump, who has brought the black unemployment rates to their lowest level in US history.

Flash in the pan artists, who rise from gutter hanging to gold chains and Hummers in a few months are still just street thugs with gold chains and Hummers.
In a casino the other day, the PA was playing 1950´s era rock and roll, and people were dancing and bobbing their heads to the music, really enjoying it. That fantastic, talent made music is nearly 70 years old...I will predict there is no one listening to this stupid child-poem, made up on the moment, adlib, nonsensical, repetitious, no-talent, rap-crap in 70 years.
That tells you what level of BS the genre is. And it tells you how low talent the listeners to it are.

I especially like the ´biggest and brightest´ part. I don´t know who this ´rapper´ is but I do know he´s not even original with his fake name Nipsey Hussle some might remember Nipsey Russell the actor.

Was he killed by a "racist, white cop"? If not, then this is not news. Just another day all up in da hood, yo.

Ermias Asghedom? I would have changed my name too.
When rap first began to poison the airwaves I predicted that it would have a lifespan shorter than Disco did. There were more white boys with huge speakers in their cars blasting out rap because they could scream the "F" word in public and it was socially acceptable. It´s a good way for no-talent, low-budget people to sell their wares to the gullible so the scourge has stayed with us.

Pretty good argument for taking all guns out of the hands of all private citizens in CA. Come on CA, show the rest of us how to do it. You´ve tried every other way to disarm civilians with no police record, so stop this senseless killing.
Millions of morons in this country believe this. Meanwhile police in LA know to stay out of certain neighborhoods after dark.
