According to CBSLA the intersection of Crenshaw Boulevard and Slauson Avenue will be named after slain rapper and community leader Nipsey Hussle, a South Los Angeles councilman announced Tuesday.
A Change.org petition to rename the intersection garnered nearly 500,000 signatures in the week following Hussle’s death. The 33-year-old rapper, whose real name is Ermias Joseph Asghedom, was shot March 31 in the 3400 block of West Slauson Avenue – just outside his store The Marathon Clothing, which he opened in 2017.
Councilman Marqueece Harris-Dawson announced on social media that the intersection near where Hussle was gunned down would be renamed “Ermias ‘Nipsey Hussle’ Asghedom Square.”
