    WorldStarHipHop was like the black YouTube in my eyes. Granted, most of the time it displayed ratchet behavior within the black community. However it also gave unsigned artists the opportunity to shine.
    TMZ reports WorldStarHipHop founder Lee "Q" O'Denat has died:
    We're told Q, the face and CEO of WorldStar, died in his sleep Monday night. Q founded the premiere hip-hop website in 2005 when he started posting mixtapes, which gradually progressed into a mash-up of hip-hop videos, fight clips and other outrageous camera footage. An autopsy is scheduled for later Tuesday ... although one source tells us Q died of a heart attack. He was 43. RIP

    UPDATE: Damn. Rip Tommy. It has now been confirmed that Actor Thomas Mikal Ford has passed away at the age of 52.
    If you watched the hilarious sitcom Martin in the late 90's you remember Tommy. Actor Thomas Mikal Ford played one of Martin's three best friends. He would often portray himself as a ladies' man and would flirt with Pam and other women on the show. His mysterious employment status was a running gag on the show and still is to this day.
    Today it's being reported that Tommy is currently fighting for his life in Atlanta GA after suffering an Aneurysm. People on social media already killed the man off by posting RIP. I haven't read anything confirming his death so let's continue to pray for Tommy.

    Another legend has passed away. Last month it was Prince, this month it's Muhammad Ali.
    Muhammad Ali born, Cassius Marcellus Clay, Jr., died on Friday June 3rd at a Phoenix hospital. He was hospitalized a few days ago due to respiratory complications. When I saw other media outlets report that he was on life support, I knew the end was near. He was 74.
    A family spokesman told NBC News " After a 32-year battle with Parkinson's disease, Muhammad Ali has passed away at the age of 74. The three-time World Heavyweight Champion boxer died this evening,"- Bob Gunnell.
    One of my favorite Ali quotes:
“Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee. The hands can't hit what the eyes can't see.”
    Rip to The Greatest of All Time. Legends never die!
