According to Yahoo!  a young Los Angeles rapper, known by his stage name as MoneySign Suede, has died after being reportedly stabbed in the showers at a California prison on Tuesday evening. The incident took place at the Correctional Training Facility located in Soledad, where the renowned name Brugada was transferred to this facility after being convicted and sentenced in Riverside County in December of the previous year for two counts of being a convicted felon in possession of a firearm.

Born as Jaime Brugada Valdez, the rapper originally hailed from Huntington Park in California. He had garnered a significant amount of support from fans and other artists in the weeks before his death, with many calling for his release from prison through social media posts. "People are very horrified," said Nicholas Rosenberg, Valdez's lawyer. "He was a very famous guy, very well-mannered. People adored him."

The media personality was found unresponsive just before 10 p.m. on Tuesday when officers discovered that he was not in his cell during a regular count. He was later found "with injuries consistent with a homicide," according to the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation. The attack was reportedly a stabbing in the neck, and an investigation is now being launched by the prison's Investigative Services Unit and the Monterey County district attorney's office.
