Nipsey Hussle

Rappers dying aren’t what people want to see trending on Twitter and all other aspects on social media. When X died, many people were hurt and in disbelief that he was really dead and that it was all just some prank that he was playing because of the strange links. Rappers such as Biggie, Tupac, Jam Master Jay, and Chinx have all died from gun violence. Sundays are for God, not for murders happening. Nipsey was visiting his local store in Los Angeles, unfortunately, it was the end of an amazing journey for him. There were plenty of security cameras around to track this awful person down who took an innocent life. One thing that is really strange and mind-blowing is the last thing that Nipsey tweeted was, “having strong enemies is a blessing.”

Nipsey was fighting for a man who was said to have found a cure for HIV/AIDS. This man was Dr. Sebi who was arrested a few times for money laundering back in ‘16 and was said to die in custody. They said that Sebi died from pneumonia at the age of 82, but there are many people that believe that this isn’t true. What is said that happened is that many high powered people didn’t want anyone to know about this cure from this diseases that gets millions of dollars from some of the medication that is believed to “help slow down” the illness. Nipsey was a true believer of what Sebi was doing and wanted to do more for him. Nipsey was creating a movie for Dr. Sebi before his life was wrongfully taken from him. In order to keep those visions alive, Nick Cannon stated in a long Instagram post that he was going to carry on what Nipsey started, and that's finishing his movie for him dedicated to Dr. Sebi.

The story of Nipsey getting shot because of the Dr. Sebi isn’t the full story. As of April, 2nd the LAPD have captured Eric Holder who is believed to have beef with Nipsey Hussle. There was a post on Twitter of the surveillance footage of Nipsey and his friends hanging around in the parking lot and then a man walking up and rapidly taking fire at Nipsey and his crew, in the video you can see Eric standing over him and then kicking Nipsey in the head. There was some comment here and there on the internet about why Eric did that, and it happens to be that Eric went into Nipsey’s store trying to have a conversation but it ended up being a huge dispute then Nipsey told Eric to leave and that's when Eric came back but with a gun and opened fire. According to TMZ, the women that was the getaway drive said she was gaining a friendship with Nipsey and she claimed that she was waiting in the alley while he went over to Nipsey’s store not knowing what he was doing, and she said he didn’t say anything when he got back in the car.

Nipsey was just trying to help someone out that just got out of jail after 20 years, he didn’t tell his bodyguards or anyone else because he was just in the moment. Many people are trying to get the street Nipsey was shot at to change to Nipsey Hussle, a great tribute. Many other people dedicated many great things to him, take Russell Westbrook for an example. Russell had 20 points, 21 assist and 20 rebounds. This is the second ever 20,20,20 game in NBA history and he dedicated it to Nipsey.

Nipsey's death took a toll on many people in the rap industry and especially his fans. He’s leaving behind family, friends and his fans. It’s hard to have people die from gun violence, especially if they’re leaving behind what he’s leaving behind. Nipsey was an amazing artist and his music will still live on, Nipsey owns his own music so keep listening to his music and carry on what was left behind. UnfortunatelyUnfortunanly, do people wonder who’s next?
