The Atlantic published on 4 April 2019 an article titled "Nipsey Hussle's Eritrean American Dream" by Hannah Giorgis.
Ermias Asghedom, the Eritrean-American rapper known as Nipsey Hussle, who was killed in a shooting in Los Angeles on 31 March 2019, was a model of success and a chronicler of the struggles he overcame to obtain it. The author argues that Hussle was flawed but he was real.
