Ermias Joseph Asghedom (born Airmiess Joseph Asghedom; August 15, 1985 – March 31, 2019), known professionally as Nipsey Hussle, was an American rapper, entrepreneur, and activist. Emerging from the West Coast hip-hop scene in the mid-2000s, Hussle independently released his debut mixtape, Slauson Boy Volume 1, to moderate local success, leading him to sign with Cinematic Music Group and Epic Records. Hussle became known for his mixtapes, including his Bullets Ain't Got No Name series, The Marathon, The Marathon Continues, and Crenshaw, which was purchased 100 times by American rapper Jay-Z for US$100 each. After much delay, his debut studio album Victory Lap (2018) was met with critical acclaim and commercial success, and was nominated for the Best Rap Album at the 61st Grammy Awards.
