Eric Holder Jr.? Sorry to laugh, but if Holder had a son kind of like if Obama had a son.

Not much for motive yet known, except that the two men had some kind of dispute “before the shooting”. Timeline unknown.

Kind of a sad story, I have been told by sources I find reliable that this rapper was big on reinvesting in his community. He had enough resources to move but stayed in his childhood neighborhood and reinvested, buying and opening various businesses.

I had heard his brother was also shot but no mention of that in the story.

Hmmm. I don’t like the guy, but I thought his IQ was just a touch higher.

That was my impression also. He seemed to be a sincerely humble and generous person toward his neighbors and community. Wasn’t letting the fame go to his head.

He may have tried to help people but he was in the gansta lifestyle, and if you are in that then sucks to be you when this happens, nothing good comes from it, its the 800 pound gorilla in the room nobody wants to talk about.

Laughing? Of course. To not admit it is ironic is to be blind as a bat. The Lord’s plan is seldom boring and nothing we’ve seen has shown that it is. He shows his humor on occasion. STAY WOKE!

Wasn’t letting the fame go to his head.

He was a big fan of bling, greed, money-flashing (see instagram pics), fancy cars, watches, typical money/fame/notoriety videos laced with the n-word and gang gestures.

Trivialized women in his videos.

His most famous videos appeared to glamorize the gangster drug-dealer lifestyle. See the typical "Nipsey Hussle - Double Up Ft. Belly & Dom Kennedy [Official Music Video]" on YouTube. (10 million views and rising)

I wonder how many crimes he committed when he was active in the Crips? How many victims? Perhaps not all of them forgot about him.

And worst of all in some ways he didn't think security was an issue, even though he was a (former, if there is such a thing) Crip.

Tweeted "having strong enemies is a blessing" hours before his enemies proved to be stronger than his blessings.

I wholeheartedly reject the corrosive, self-defeating, violent, craven gang culture he immersed himself in (and yet says he wanted to reform).

He was quoted in an interview: "The culture of my area is the gang culture - so by being outside, being involved with hustling, being in the hood, doing things to try to get money, being young, you know riding your bike through the hood, getting shot at, your loved ones and homies that's your age getting killed, getting shot at ......it's like, we were just raised like if you with me and something goes now, I'm in it, whether I'm from the (expletive) or not."

None of the videos or instagram posts or any other media would suggest success comes through anythng but the path he took in the above quote. What kind of role model does that make him? Thus the name "Nippsey Hussle" (takeoff on the celebrity black Hollywood actor Nipsey Russell).

He lived up to his name, no surprises.

“The suspected gunman has been identified as Eric Holder”

So I guess Wiener/Holder 2020 isn’t going to happen after all!

ERIC HOLDER is a murderer, just like his namesake in Fast and Furious.

I think it’s a different Nipsey and different Eric Holder.
