Lee O’Denat, known as Q, the founder of the influential website WorldStarHipHop.com — which grew into the preeminent clearinghouse of hip-hop music videos, entertainment news and viral videos — died suddenly on Monday in San Diego. He was 43.
The San Diego County medical examiner’s office said O’Denat was at a business in a San Diego shopping center — identified by police as a massage parlor — when he became unresponsive.

The creators claim it's the world's first manned bipedal robot.
(Atlanta Black Star) Hundreds of people marched along Chicago’s Michigan Avenue Saturday, Dec. 31, bearing crosses with the names of the nearly 800 victims lost to the city’s gun violence in 2016, CBS Chicago reported. Street violence skyrocketed in the Windy City last year, and now city locals have vowed to do all they can to combat said violence in 2017.
“The last day of the year, we will remember all of who’ve been shot and killed in 2016 [and prior],” said Rev. Michael Pfleger, who helped organize Saturday’s memorial. “We want to break the cycle of violence for 2017!”
