Crips and Bloods march peacefully together in first gang truce for 27 years in tribute to Nipsey Hussle
GANG rivals the Bloods and the Crips have put aside their differences to march in memory of murdered rapper Nipsey Husssle.
Nipsey was a well-loved figure in the community and his philanthropy and advocacy won praise from fellow entertainers and public officials.that in the wake of his death, various gang leaders began contacting him and others with the idea of a ceasefire and rally to pay tribute. Big U told TMZ: “We’re having a gang truce and a gang rally so all the different gangs from LA can get together and celebrate the life and the gift of Nipsey.“It’s in honour of Nipsey. There’s a lot of people who said they wanted to get together and come to a vigil and pay respect because Nipsey was the first real LA artist that was from LA.”
He said he hoped Nipsey’s death could be become the focus for “sit downs with different gangs” aimed at establishing a long term gang truce. He spoke only to say “yeah” to Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Teresa Sullivan’s questions. If convicted, he faces life in prison.
