Slain rapper Nipsey Hussle was born to an Eritrean father and an African-American mother in Los Angeles. Born Ermias Davidson Asghedom, Nipsey was on course to having a stellar year riding off the success of his 2018 Grammy-nominated Victory Lap album after being underground and independent for so long.
He was, however, fatally shot in front of his Marathon Clothing store at 3420 W. Slauson Ave. in South Los Angeles on Sunday, March 31. He is survived by a daughter from a previous relationship and a son with whom he has with actress and girlfriend Lauren London.
