"Rapper Slim 400 was shot and killed Wednesday night in Inglewood, the Los Angeles Times confirmed. The shooting occurred on the 8600 block of 7th Avenue at around 7:50 p.m., the Inglewood Police Department said Thursday. Authorities identified the victim as Vincent Cohran — the real name of Slim 400. Officers patrolling the area found the wounded musician on the ground after hearing gunshots. Paramedics treated Slim 400 on site before the L.A. County Fire Department transported him to a local hospital for emergency traumatic care —reportedly Harbor-UCLA Medical Center — where he was pronounced dead. Inglewood police are collecting evidence and pursuing witnesses for the ongoing investigation.

TMZ first reported that Slim 400 was 33 at the time of his death, but police later said he was 34, according to NBC News. Born in Germany and raised in Compton, the emcee was known for songs such as “Goapele,” featuring YG, and “Piru,” featuring YG and Redrum 187. Hours before the shooting, Slim 400 dropped a music video for his track “Caviar Gold,” a love letter to cannabis, which he promoted to his 247,000 followers on Instagram. In 2019, Slim 400 was shot multiple times in Compton. He survived the attack after undergoing surgery. Hip-hop blog Passion of the Weiss paid tribute to Slim 400 Thursday on Twitter, hailing the recording artist as “a Compton gangsta rap prototype, an ambassador for a tradition, lineage, and history — who made a whole lot of hard-as-hell rap songs full of sober gravity and blunt force.”

Slim 400 had a daughter named Parris, who is pictured on his Instagram account. In November, he paid tribute to fellow rapper Young Dolph, who was shot and killed in Memphis, Tenn., earlier that month. Slim 400 and Young Dolph collaborated on the 2019 single “Shake Back.” In 2013, Slim 400 released his debut single, “Turn Up,” featuring YG and Kidoe, after he was discovered by the now-defunct record label Pu$haz Ink. His latest album, “Ice Wata Army,” was released in August.

His murder was caught on a Ring camera, in the video you can see Slim sitting in his car in the driveway, and some dude walks up with what looks like a rifle and tells Slim, "Sup bruh bruh", he then says "hold on, hold on", and then Slim replies with "You got a fucking problem nigga?" and then it looks like Slim400 grabs the barrel of his gun and the guy starts shooting continuously, slim400 is still holding onto the gun as the guy is dragging the body and say "fuck" etc then the video ends.

fuck that coward, could've just tookin a fade, but decided to be a pussy and do a walk up, rest in peace slim400!
