13 Shot Outside Of Nipsey Hussle Show In Arizona
A night of rap music turned into a scene of chaos and violence when a gunman opened fire outside a nightclub in Tempe, Arizona, where rapper Nipsey Hussle was set to perform. Thirteen people were wounded in the shooting, which occurred on Friday night (March 2), according to police.
Sgt. Steve Carbajal of the Tempe Police Department said that the shooting was triggered by \"some sort of altercation\" outside The Clubhouse Music Venue on Broadway Road, a few blocks southeast of the Arizona State University campus. He said that police were searching for two young black men who were seen fleeing the scene on foot.
Carbajal said that at least two of the victims were in serious condition, while the others suffered more minor injuries. Some of the victims drove themselves to nearby hospitals, which initially led to confusion about the number of people shot. The police initially reported seven people wounded, but later revised the figure to 13.
Witnesses described a chaotic scene as people ran for cover or tried to help the injured. Paul Butler, who was waiting outside the club for the doors to open, told ABC15 that he heard about 10 shots and saw people falling to the ground. \"People stampeded over security. Not what I expected to be doing on a Friday night -- dodging bullets,\" he said.
Nipsey Hussle, whose real name is Ermias Asghedom, is a Los Angeles-based rapper who was featured in XXL magazine's 2010 Freshman Class. He has collaborated with artists such as Drake, Snoop Dogg and Rick Ross. He was scheduled to perform at The Clubhouse as part of his The Marathon Continues tour.
The rapper took to Twitter to express his shock and dismay over the shooting. \"AZ...y'all gotta be cool man. This shit ain't rite,\" he wrote. He also denied any involvement in the incident, saying that he had nothing to do with it and that he was not even at the venue when it happened.
The Clubhouse Music Venue has been closed indefinitely by its owner following the shooting, according to its Facebook page. The owner said that he was cooperating with the police investigation and that he was \"devastated\" by what happened.
The shooting is the latest in a series of violent incidents involving rap concerts or artists. In January, rapper Young Jeezy's tour bus was shot at in Ontario, Canada, leaving one person injured. In December, rapper Slim Dunkin was killed in a recording studio in Atlanta after an argument over a piece of candy.
Hussle was widely respected and admired in the hip hop community and beyond for his musical talent and his entrepreneurial spirit. He was known for his independent approach to the music industry, releasing his mixtapes and albums through his own label, All Money In. He also invested in various businesses and community projects in his neighborhood of Crenshaw, such as a clothing store, a barbershop, a fish market, and a co-working space. He was involved in several initiatives to promote education, empowerment, and peace among the youth and the residents of South Los Angeles.
Hussle's death sparked an outpouring of grief and tributes from fans, fellow artists, celebrities, politicians, and activists. His memorial service was held at the Staples Center in Los Angeles on April 11, 2019, and was attended by over 20,000 people. His funeral procession traveled through 25 miles of the city, passing by landmarks and places that were significant to his life and career. Thousands of people lined up along the streets to pay their respects and honor his legacy.
Hussle's music and message have continued to inspire and influence many people after his death. His album Victory Lap was certified platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) in June 2019. He won two posthumous Grammy Awards for his songs \"Racks in the Middle\" and \"Higher\" at the 62nd Grammy Awards in 2020. He was also honored with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in August 2021. Several murals, statues, and street names have been dedicated to him in various locations across the country. ec8f644aee
