*Up-and-coming rapper Nick Blixky was shot and killed in New York City, police said Monday (May 11).
The 21-year-old, who was born Nickalus Thompson, was found with gunshot wounds in front of a building in the Prospect Lefferts Gardens neighborhood of Brooklyn at around 9:30 p.m. Sunday. He was taken to Kings County Hospital, where he was pronounced dead.
Blixky’s Spotify profile says he started rapping for fun with his crew, Blixky Crew, but decided to pursue a career after fans responded positively to his YouTube videos. On Sunday, Blixky posted that he was preparing to drop his first-ever mixtape, “Different Timin”, on June 3. At press time, police have made no arrests in the shooting.
