A product of Crenshaw Boulevard & Slauson Avenue. Ermias or Nipsey as the streets would call him. Had a mystique about him that left you in awe but also had you wondering. Was he your typical street dude? Was he a thinker? Was he a radical? Was he lethal? He was the perfect mix of street & scholarly. An "Educated Thug" is what you'd call him. His intellectual mind got him to the top and made him the King Of L.A. He was a real laid back cat with a hard exterior and an even harder interior. He never knew love and love never tried to get to know him. He sometimes wondered will that ever change. "Slauson Boy" tatted on his back, he repped Six Owe to the fullest but also to a fault. Is it still 60s to Life even when your facing life?
