While on Instagram Live, an artist who goes by Cinco says a man named @gasstongbo jumped on his video and claimed responsibility for killing the father of two who was gunned down outside his own clothing store in Los Angeles, TMZ reports.

In the bizarre video, the man brags about walking up to the rapper and shooting him in front of his “daughter,” but it’s unclear if the child was Hussle’s kid.

Police have said they have ID’d a suspect but no word on if this clout chaser is the right suspect or if he’s attention seeking for “likes” since the story is trending.

According to several eye witness reports, the West coast rapper and two other people were targeted outside of Hussle’s Marathon Clothing store.

Overnight, tributes poured in for Hussle who was a well-known and respected community activist and rapper in the LA who was remembered as a savvy and street smart entrepreneur who owned several businesses and made investments in education and the arts.
