L.A rapper Slim 400 was reportedly involved in a fiery encounter that resulted in his death.
Slim 400 murdered: Here’s what we know
Details around the incident are still very murky at this stage, with no information from the rapper’s family and entourage.
However, from what we understand, the YG affiliate was reportedly struck by gunfire multiple times and lost his life. This was not Slim 400’s, real name Vincent Cohran, first brush with violence.
The Compton-based rapper, who was believed to be 33 years old at the time of his death, survived an ambush in August 2021, where he was shot multiple times. The rapper took to social media days later to show the medication he was prescribed and, suffice it to say, he “threw them b****es away.”

In 2019, Slim 400 miraculously survived another ambush where he was shot at least 10 times, including in the face and back.
At this time, no statement has been released by L.A authorities on the investigation.
Fans took to social media to pay tribute to the Compton rapper. Here are some of the reactions we picked out:
RIP Slim 400. 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. pic.twitter.com/ZgI1AVPmz4
