<p>As previously reported, Nipsey was shot and killed by Eric Holder in 2019 in front of his<a href="https://dev.theshaderoom.com/nipsey-hussles-marathon-clothing-store-has-been-vandalized-video/"> L.A. clothing store</a>. Last week, a jury found Eric guilty of first-degree murder. Eric is said to have shot Nipsey at least 10 times and kicked him in the head before fleeing the scene with a female driver. Prosecutors also charged Eric with two counts of attempted first-degree murder for bystanders hit by stray bullets during the shooting. Instead, the jury <a href="https://dev.theshaderoom.com/breaking-eric-holder-found-guilty-of-first-degree-murder-of-nipsey-hussle/">found him guilty</a> of two counts of attempted voluntary manslaughter.</p>

<h5 style="text-align: center;"><strong>Lauren London Says L.A. &#8220;Feels Heavy&#8221; After Nipsey&#8217;s Death</strong></h5>
<p>About mid-way through the 47-minute-long interview, Angie spoke on Nipsey&#8217;s heavy presence in Los Angeles in the form of artwork.</p>
<p>The host began by saying, &#8220;Nipsey&#8217;s everywhere&#8230;there are murals, there is like&#8230;&#8221; At this point, Lauren interrupted Angie saying, &#8220;oh yeah, no, it&#8217;s not easy.&#8221;</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;And then I thought, I wonder if Lauren has ever thought about moving or does she enjoy being here,&#8221; Angie responded.</p></blockquote>
<p>Lauren wasted no time responding&#8211;even jumping in mid-convo.</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;I want to move all the time,&#8221; Lauren said. &#8220;I just know it&#8217;s not the right time for my family if I leave.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>Angie followed up by questioning London&#8217;s love for her hometown&#8211; and the star agreed before explaining why she wants to leave.</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;I love [L.A.]. It&#8217;s tattooed on me, to the death of me I love L.A.,&#8221; Lauren said. &#8220;But it&#8217;s too heavy for me right now.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>Angie questioned if she feels this way everywhere she goes. But Lauren explained that it&#8217;s not the city-wide imagery of Nipsey that bothers her but the heaviness of the city in general.</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;It&#8217;s not even that cause he&#8217;s in my house everywhere,&#8221; Lauren said. &#8220;And I sleep and wake up with him on my mind so I&#8217;m in it. It&#8217;s just that L.A. feels really heavy. It feels heavy for me.&#8221;</p></blockquote>

<h5 style="text-align: center;"><strong>Lauren Plans To Stay In L.A. For Her Family&#8217;s Sake</strong></h5>
<p>One of the reasons she&#8217;s staying put is for her Hollywood career. However, the actress also said her family is keeping her in the city!</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;I&#8217;m staying put right now,&#8221; Lauren said. &#8220;&#8230;I just don&#8217;t think it&#8217;s like a good time for the rest of our family that loves us and wants to make sure they have a close eye on us.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>Lauren and Angie then chuckled over Lauren&#8217;s moving site preference. The actress mentioned wanting to move to the desert. Angie asked London what she would do in the desert. Though she wasn&#8217;t sure what she&#8217;d do there, Lauren made it clear she&#8217;d be living well in a hut.</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;A nice hut, a real nice hut,&#8221; Lauren joked. &#8220;A glamorous, luxury hut hunni we still need our comfort. No, I would. I don&#8217;t know. I would just be.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>Though Angie doubted her desert plans, Lauren insisted she would &#8220;absolutely&#8221; go&#8211;without a doubt.</p>
