We can’t believe it’s already been a year since
Nipsey Hussle passed away.
Today, in 2019, news surfaced that the rapper was shot and killed outside of his own Marathon Clothing store following a confrontation with an unidentified man. That man turned out to be Eric Holder — he was arrested two days later, after a 48-hour manhunt, and faces life in prison on one count of murder, two counts of attempted murder and assault with a firearm, and one count of a possession of a firearm by a felon.
While the world mourns Nip, no one is mourning more than his family.
Lauren London, the love of his life, said during his televised memorial…
“Grief is the final act of love… My heart hears you. I feel you everywhere. I’m so grateful that I had you. I love you beyond this Earth. And, until we meet again, the marathon continues.”
He will be greatly missed by fans, family, and Hip Hop as well.
