He was influential not only as a musician, but as a businessman and organizer who encouraged fellow African American community members to invest in their neighborhoods. Hussle was murdered on March 31, 2019 in Los Angeles outside his store, Marathon Clothing. In February 2019 he visited this shopping center on his last trip to Dallas, at the invitation of Taylor Toynes, executive director of `For Oak Cliff`, whose office is located in the Glendale Shopping Center owned by African American real estate investor Al Herron.
