A mural was created on the basketball court of a school located in the neighborhood where Nipsey Hussle was murdered. The killed rapper, whose real name is Ermias Asghedom, grew up in South Los Angeles and was shot dead on March 31 outside his clothing store.

Ermias Asghedom was buried on Friday, after a long procession through the streets of L.A. that included his old neighborhood, it must be said that despite his musical success, Nipsey has always remained attached to his community, creating job opportunities for others.

And so the Crete Academy, a local non-profit school in the Crenshaw district, commissioned a mural in his memory.

“For our kids to look at Nipsey and see to see everything he’s done, what he was able to accomplish and how much he gave back to the community is huge for them … because he looks like them”.

Below is the video of what happened:
