Fellow rapper Eric R Holder shot the Grammy-nominated hip hop artist in 2019 outside Hussle’s clothing store in Los Angeles
A Los Angeles judge sentenced the man convicted of gunning down rapper Nipsey Hussle to 60 years to life in prison on Wednesday.
Superior court judge H Clay Jacke II handed down the delayed sentence to Eric R Holder Jr, 33, who was found guilty of the 2019 first-degree murder of the 33-year-old Grammy-nominated hip hop artist outside the clothing store Hussle founded, the Marathon, in the south Los Angeles neighborhood where both men grew up in very similar circumstances.
