Money Sign Suede Death Video: TMZ says that the rapper MoneySign Suede was found dead in prison. It looks like he was stabbed.
The up-and-coming rapper from Los Angeles had been locked up at the Soledad Correctional Training Facility.
Prison officials told the newspaper that they are looking into the death of MoneySign Suede as a murder.
A headcount was done Tuesday night at 9:55 p.m., and it was said that the rapper, who was born Jaime Brugada Valdez, was not there.
The rapper was then found in another part of the prison, where CPR was allegedly tried on him, the sources said.
But he didn’t move or talk, so at 10:20 p.m., he was pronounced dead.
Since his death, the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation said that the prison has put limits on how prisoners can move around.

The rapper’s death is now being looked into by the Monterey County District Attorney’s Office, while the Monterey County Coroner works to find out why he died.
Nicholas Rosenberg, the lawyer for MoneySign Suede, told the Los Angeles Times that he had been told that his client had been stabbed in the neck in the shower.
A prisoner who spoke to the newspaper anonymously said that the rapper had been found in a part of the prison where general population prisoners were kept.
He said that was unusual because a rapper would usually be put in the sensitive-needs yard, which is for prisoners who have safety concerns or are well-known.
But the rapper was just starting out, so it’s not clear if he had a high enough profile to need that kind of protection.
MoneySign Suede had been in jail for 32 months in Riverside County for gun charges, his lawyer said.
