American rapper MoneySign Suede, 22, was stabbed to death Tuesday night in a California jail shower. His biggest hit, the video "Back to the Bag" has over 7 million views on his YouTube page.

Officials at Soledad State Prison said in a statement that he was not in his cell at Tuesday night's inmate count. During the search they found him in another area of the prison seriously injured, although the letter does not specify in which area he was. The prison where he was held houses more than 4,000 men of minimum or medium security.
