The industry lost a truly gifted and dedicated artist yesterday. Nipsey Hussle was fatally shot outside of his clothing store in Los Angeles on Sunday (May 31). Prior to his untimely death, the rapper was scheduled to meet with LAPD officials to discuss a plan of action to end gang violence in the area.
Los Angeles Police Commissioner Steve Soboroff revealed that he had planned to meet with Nip on Monday (Apr. 1) to discuss their new goals for the community.
"We (@LAPDChiefMoore and I ) were meeting, at the request of @NipseyHussle with him and @rocnation tomorrow at 4 pm to talk about ways he could help stop gang violence and help us help kids. I’m so very sad," he wrote on Twitter.
The message was attached to a note from Roc Nation's Twitter account, offering condolences to Hussle and his family.
