    “Our hearts go out to the families of Mr. Cohran, an artist in the Los Angeles community who was taken far too soon by a tragic act of gun violence,” Gascón wrote. “Our Community Violence Reduction Unit vigorously prosecutes gun violence to protect our communities. Gun violence has no place in our society, and we will continue to work closely with communities we serve to help prevent these senseless crimes.”

    Slim 400 was gunned down in Dec. 2021 following a dispute with Terry outside of his home in the Inglewood section of Los Angeles. Officers responding to reports of shots fired in the area found the rapper lying on the ground with multiple gunshot wounds and transported him to a local hospital, where he was pronounced dead after succumbing to his injuries.

    A close friend and collaborator of YG, the 400 Records affiliate is best known for releasing his 2016 single “Bruisin” featuring YG and Sad Boy Loko, as well as an appearance on “Word Is Bond” from YG’s Still Brazy album. Slim 400 released several solo projects prior to his passing, including All Blassik in 2016, High Off TTreezIn in 2019, and his most recent album, BompTTon , in 2021.
