AceShowbiz - Slain rapper Nipsey Hussle's Los Angeles clothing store is shutting its doors five weeks after he was murdered outside.
The hitmaker was shot and killed as he left his flagship Marathon Clothing store, which has since become a shrine to him, and now his business partners have decided to shutter the shop in South Central.
"Thank you to everyone who's placed an order with us these last couple of weeks," a message posted on the store's website reads. "We appreciate the unprecedented outpour of support. It means a lot to our team and family."
"We are working around the clock to fulfill every order placed. We ask for your patience as we get everything fulfilled and shipped out to you. Additionally, our flagship store is closed right now, but our online store is open 24/7 to serve you and is the only authorized retailer of our brand. Once again, thank you for your support."
Nipsey's remains were driven past his store following a star-studded memorial service last month (April 2019).
