The death of Grammy-nominated rapper Nipsey Hussle shocked the entire world.
Nipsey was shot in front of his own clothing store on Sunday afternoon (in the wee hours of the morning in Kenya) at close range, by a man who fled in a getaway car. Two other people were left injured.
The 33-year-old was a darling to many and a suspect in connection with the fatal shooting of Nipsey has been arrested.
