Before Airmiess Joseph Asghedom, known professionally as Nipsey Hussle, left the cold world, he was a rapper emerging from the West Coast hip-hop scene in the mid-2000s, and he independently released his debut mixtape, Slauson Boy Volume 1, to moderate local success, which led to him being signed to Cinematic Music Group and Epic Records.

Hussle became known for his numerous mixtapes, including his Bullets Ain’t Got No Name series, The Marathon, The Marathon Continues, and Crenshaw, the last of which American rapper Jay-Z bought 100 copies for $100 each.

Holder was arrested and charged with murder two days later and was found guilty of first-degree murder on July 6, 2022. On February 22, 2023, Holder was sentenced to 60 years of life in prison.
