Nipsey Hussle has died at the age of 33. The rapper and two other people were shot outside of his clothing store in Los Angeles. Nipsey is said to have been shot six times.
Law enforcement sources tell TMZ they are looking for a black male in his 20s. He approached Nipsey and his friends on foot and fired multiple shots. He is believed to have left in a nearby waiting vehicle driven by a woman.
Shortly before the shooting Nipsey Tweeted, “Having strong enemies is a blessing.”
He is survived by his two children and his girlfriend, Lauren London, who is the mother of his son born in 2016.
He has released several mixtapes but only released one studio album last year which got him a Grammy nomination.

All charges against Empire actor Jussie Smollett has been dropped. He will also have his record expunged.
His spokesperson said in an email to CBS Chicago:
“Today, all criminal charges against Jussie Smollett were dropped and his record has been wiped clean of the filing of this tragic complaint against him. Jussie was attacked by two people he was unable to identify on January 29th. He was a victim who was vilified and made to appear as a perpetrator as a result of false and inappropriate remarks made to the public causing an inappropriate rush to judgement.
Jussie and many others were hurt by these unfair and unwarranted actions. This entire situation is a reminder that there should never be an attempt to prove a case in the court of public opinion. That is wrong. It is a reminder that a victim, in this case Jussie, deserves dignity and respect. Dismissal of charges against the victim in this case was the only just result.
Jussie is relieved to have this situation behind him and is very much looking forward to getting back to focusing on his family, friends and career.”
