know the devastation that nipy hustle death caused it rocked the music industry his community and his fans like a ton of bricks but what's been happening to the guy who took his life Eric Holder honestly no one could have predicted this mess and it's way more chaotic than anyone thought it's like watching a real life warning unfold where the consequences go Way Beyond just the courtroom Eric Holder the guy convicted of killing nipy got slapped with a jaw-dropping 60 years in prison on paper that's Justice right but trust the punishment started way before that sentence
was even handed down back here at home Hip Hop star nipy hustle was down in 2019 and today his killer Eric Holder Jr was sentenced to 60 years to life the judge said the sentence balanced the mental health of the defendant with the devastation caused of the victims and their families rumors have been swirling about a shootout targeting Eric's family with claims of some major losses in the aftermath and as if that wasn't enough there's talk that anyone who dares to visit him or even be associated with him could be putting themselves in serious danger
it's like nip memory has this invisible net of Vengeance surrounding it making sure the cost of betrayal is high as for Eric's family yeah they're apparently doing everything they can to stay out of the mess and avoid the Bloodshed and then prison let's just say it's been anything but smooth sailing for Eric stories about mistreatment and make his time Behind Bars sound like a nightmare some people thought he'd be safe because of his gang ties but clearly that's not the case in fact back in 2022 Eric got jumped in prison by two inmates and it
wasn't just a regular Beatdown nah they slashed him with a razor dude ended up unconscious had to get three Staples in his head and walked around with bruises all over his face people like mob James said these things could happen and they were right when he go to prison what the he going to do he's going to be in PC you can get touched in there too so my own my only thing and I hope this dude hear me the only thing you can do is sharpen you some and and and keep your back to
the world and say you ain't coming home so anything come near you even if they don't open their mouth stab they mother ass cuz here's the crazy part he didn't even see it coming he was just sitting in a holding cell with 13 other inmates probably thinking about his next move when bam he's attacked from behind his lawyer said the attackers didn't say a word they just went in on him why well no one really knows but you know the streets have their own code and nips name hits hard everywhere despite that vicious attack Eric
showed up to court the very next day with his head stapled up and looking all messed up now don't get me wrong it's hard to feel bad for him especially considering what he did let's not forget this is the same guy who took nip life in Cold Blood what really makes this tough to stomach is how much nipy meant to his community even the LAPD respected him for working to bridge the gap between the streets and the police nipy wasn't just another rapper he was a leader we would like to read a letter from the
44th President of the United States Barack Obama sent in regarding the life and celebration of nipy hustle even President Obama spoke on how important nipy was to the world his death brought gangs together to discuss peace think about that nip influence was so powerful it literally made people rethink their approach to the streets Eric might have taken nipsey's life but he could never take away nipsey's Legacy that's something that's going to live on forever one former inmate Bravo the bag Chaser even talked about a brutal incident during Eric's transfer showing just how bad things have
been for him I remember the day I left uh to deleno in the in the in the bus when we all got chained up caught the chain it was March 29th you'll never guess who was on that bus s me who uh Eric Holder kill nip swear to God everything I he was he was right there on the same bus and it's crazy cuz I'm tained up I'm with a few homies I'm with a homie from 60s too and then so I'm like um but he's in a cage though he's like he was pced up
so he was was in the cage but he was in the in the last cage and and I'm sitting right here so like his cage is right here and then I see him I see him just look back on everything I love and I'm like what the I'm high too mind you I'm faded so I'm like what the and I tell the homie I'm like hey I'm like bro I I think that's old boy he's like and he look at me like kind of disrespectful like man you tripping you high like you off drugs like
you feel me and then I was just like all right Dam I go bang on his on his window boom boom boom he looks back everybody on the bus like what the I swear to God and then he's like you Eric you Eric hold he's like yeah it's crazy everything I love he got on Andes spit on they were spitting on him in the bus man said hell yeah swe while some people are saying he's getting exactly what he deserves others can't help but wonder if this is the beginning of the end for Eric not
because of parole or anything but because revenge and Justice seem to be mixing into something way more dangerous np's impact was massive he was loved respected and admired not just in his hood but across the entire rap game Eric probably didn't realize just how far nipsey's influence would stretch or how deep people would go to protect his memory but you need to realize one thing when Eric Holder pulled that trigger it wasn't just a crime it was like throwing gasoline on a fire rumors exploded about payback and it wasn't looking pretty for Eric or his
family word on the Block was that his family got caught in the crossfire literally some unverified reports claimed at least two of Eric's relatives might have been taken out or shot at as revenge for nipy official receip nowhere to be found but you know how the streets work the rumor mill doesn't need a fact cheer and things got even spicier when Tariq nashed the LA native who's always got something to say chimed in Tariq didn't just stop at calling Eric a snitch he straight up accused him of being tied to other crimes oh and he
even dropped a photo he claimed was linked to the death of one of holder's relatives Messi right now while all this drama unfolded the LAPD was out here scrambling patrols were ramped up but honestly how do you stop a tital wave of Whispers and if that wasn't enough some folks started throwing around wild theories claiming Eric didn't act alone they said he might have been a pawn in a much bigger Messier game enter big U yep his name got dragged into the mix too if you didn't know big U used to be tight with nipy
but things went South when nipy decided to go independent originally since 56 years 56 years they was only able to send me the S me 23 and you end up doing 13 end up doing 13 so what did you get 56 years for someone from the Rolling 60 gang hinted that this Fallout might have played a role in the whole situation wild right but let's keep it real none of that speculation changes the cold hard fact Eric Holder pulled the trigger for a lot of people that's the only thing that mattered but karma wasn't done
with Eric during his trial Eric's time in jail turned into a nightmare he got attacked again two inmates jumped him and left him with a razor slash on his head a swollen face and one busted eye it was so bad that the judge had to call off court for the day and here's the kicker holder was supposed to be kept separate during transport but clearly someone dropped the ball all of this goes back to that tragic day in 2019 when Eric walked up to nipy outside the marathon clothing store and shot him 11 times the
moment was caught on camera showing holder kicking nipy in the head after he was already down which where the first video began before the alleged shooter killed nipy he reportedly got into a heated conversation with the grimy award nominated rapper that footage shook La in the world nipy wasn't just another rapper he was a force for Change and Eric well he made sure the streets and the world would never forget him for all the wrong reasons from the beginning Eric holder's legal team had one mission to make the jury believe this wasn't premeditated his lawyer
painted as a heat of passion situation claiming nipy accused Eric of being a snitch an accusation that can light up the streets this is a case about heat of passion and I'll get to that in a minute but let's get to first things first on March 31st 2019 ER Ronald holder Jr shot and killed nipy hustle on SLO CR in front of the clothing store but here's the twist Eric and nipy weren't random strangers they grew up in the same neighborhood both tied to the Roland 60s Crips this wasn't a cold encounter it was personal
and everything unraveled in the blink of an eye cuz is walking up to you guys and nipy says you know I wonder how this is going to play out right you heard him say that kind of to himself in a way so then shitty CU starts to talk to you guy well starts talking to nipy right he's not talking to you at all nipsey's close friend Herman Cowboy Douglas gave a chilling account of what went down just moments before the shooting he said nipy casually mentioned a rumor that Eric had been cooperating with the cops
Eric seemed unfazed at first brushing it off but 10 minutes later the world lost nipy forever what's interesting is that Eric's ex-girlfriend Brian Nicholson unintentionally became a key player in this story she testified that she had driven Aon to the plaza where nipsey's Marathon store was located she overheard Eric confront nipy asking did you say I snitched What followed was chilling Eric got in the car loaded his gun like it was nothing and made banita Circle the block after parking in an alley he calmly ate his chili cheese fries before walking off moments later gunshots
echoed Eric ran back guns in hand and shouted for her to drive away ranita didn't realize the magnitude of what happened until she saw the news that night imagine knowing someone for just a month and being dragged into to one of LA's darkest moments nipsey's older brother Black Sam sat down with big boy for an emotional interview he shared a haunting detail about that fateful day nipsey's usual safety measures weren't in place that was the that was the ride to the hospital man just praying and you know I I was confident bro was going to
be good man and uh just couldn't understand it man like the Twilight Zone after that everything I I believed in or my faith and shattered Sam explained that there was always someone armed at the door whenever nipy visited the marathon store but that day no one was on guard nipy casually dressed in shorts wasn't his usual alert self Eric's movements added to the Eerie Vibe according to Sam Eric first approached nipy shirtless almost as if he were scoping out the scene then he left and returned wearing a red shirt a major red flag in their
area Sam suggested Eric deliberately put on the red shirt to confuse onlookers and make his actions seem unrelated to local gang politics to Sam this wasn't a heat of the- moment crime it was cold calculated and devastatingly precise that tragic day at the marathon store left nipy shot 11 times and two others injured Eric holder's actions captured on video including the harrowing moment he kicked nipy in the head shocked not just LA but the entire world nipsey's death wasn't just a loss it was a seismic shift that revealed the deep-seated issues plaguing the community his
story continues to resonate not just as a tragedy but as a call to understand the complexities of loyalty reputation and violence in the streets so here's how it went down Eric Holder was sentenced to 60 years to life in prison after being found guilty of first degree for nipy hussle's death that verdict came in on July 6th 20122 and let's be real the sentence was heavy as it should be given the weight of what he did but that wasn't all Eric was also convicted on two counts of attempted voluntary manslaughter and possession of a firearm
he pled not guilty to everything but the jury wasn't buying his story when it came to nipy interestingly though they did clear him of attempted charges tied to the two men injured in the shooting after the sentencing Eric's lawyer Aaron Jansen spoke out he was disappointed and said they planned to appeal I mean it was always going to be a tough fight considering how public this case was but Jansen did find a small win saying they were at least relieved Eric wasn't convicted on the attempt charges he felt those accusations were a bit too much
for np's family especially his brother Sam it wasn't really about the legal side of things their focus was on the massive loss they experienced nipy wasn't just a musician he was a leader a brother and a source of Hope in a community that needed him Sam talked about this during an interview with big boy and it's clear nipsey's absence left a hole not just in his family but in the culture he was so passionate about lifting up now even though Eric claimed he didn't premeditate the he admitted to shooting nipy his lawyer argued that while
he pulled the trigger it wasn't planned but regardless of the argument the damage was done as for nipy he was everything Eric wasn't a light in the darkness nipy hustle born hermus Joseph asgodom was all about giving back to his community he wasn't just making music he was making moves from creating jobs to supporting local businesses nipy was deeply invested in uplifting the same streets he grew up on in fact just days before his death he was working with the LAPD on ways to reduce gang violence nipsey's career was incredible he started out with his
mixtape slos and boy volume 1 which got him noticed and landed him deals with cinematic music group and Epic Records from there he dropped iconic projects like the marathon and kensaw remember when Jay-Z bought 100 copies at $100 each that moment cemented nip status as a game changer then came his debut album Victory lap in 2018 and it was a massive hit it even got a Grammy nomination for best round album after his passing nipsey's Legacy only grew stronger he won postumus Grammys for racks in the middle and higher a true Testament to his talent
and impact but nipsey's life wasn't just about the music growing up in khaw South La he faced his share of challenges he joined the Roland 60s neighborhood Crips as a teen and started hustling at 14 but by 19 things changed a trip to erria with his dad and brother shifted his mindset that experience inspired him to think bigger and focus on building something positive for his community his stage name nipy hustle was a nod to his grind it was actually a playful take on the comedian nipy Russell given to him by a childhood friend who
admired his hustle nipy was all about resilience ambition and hope his death left a void that still felt but his legacy as a leader and Visionary lives on he co-founded the marathon clothing store and started Vector 90 a co-working space designed to empower young people in kensaw with opportunities in Tech science and Entrepreneurship he also supported School improvements mentored students and used his voice to inspire others to rise above their circumstances he was working on major projects like destination kensaw to celebrate Black Culture and even had a meeting scheduled with the LAPD to discuss reducing
gang violence just days before he was tragically taken from us when nipy passed the world mourned fans celebrities and even former president Obama paid tribute his funeral procession through South Central LA was massive showing just how much love and respect people had for him and even after his death his impact didn't stop his life inspired gang leaders to push for peace with many agreeing to cease fires and holding Summits to reduce violence nipy hustle wasn't just a rapper he was a movement a Visionary and a symbol of Hope for so many what was nipy for
