Everyone from NBA superstars to A-list rappers is expressing condolences and grief on their various accounts.
Warriors' Stephen Curry tweeted about the shooting, right before tipoff of a game against the Hornets, before reports came out that Hussle had not survived.
God please cover and restore @NipseyHussle right now!!! ππ½ππ½

RIP Nipsey. I just spent Thursday with him filming a video for a beautiful new song we created with Khaled. We filmed in Inglewood, close to where he grew up. He was so gifted, so proud of his home, so invested in his community. Utterly stunned that he's gone so soon.
