Information
'The Dead Rapper Murcielago'
This bright yellow Lamborghini with a red, black, and yellow interior earned its nickname by way of its former owner's funeral arrangements. In 2003, the owner of the Murciélago was Alexander Bernard Harris, a co-founder of the music label XELA Entertainment (not a rapper) who lived in Miami, according to the Miami Herald. He and his friend, Todd Green, were shot and killed while at a barber shop — Green had his one-year-old son with him, but he was unharmed, as were the other patrons of the shop. Their murders remain unsolved.
The families of Harris and Green decided to hold the friends' funerals together. Green was in a suit, in a traditional coffin. Harris, however, wasn't even inside the funeral home. He was seated in the driver seat of his Lamborghini just outside. The scissor doors were open, and he was dressed in a football jersey, jeans, a baseball cap, and sunglasses, positioned as though he was ready to speed off. A photo of the unique viewing made the rounds on the internet, and some quick assumptions of the aspiring music mogul in his nontraditional funeral clothes led to the car being nicknamed the 'Dead Rapper Murciélago.'
