Last night on Jimmy Kimmel Live, the host opened the show with an emotional speech about the mass shooting in Las Vegas at the hands of gunman Stephen Paddock.
Kimmel called out the senators who continue to pass laws that make it easier for people to purchase weapons at gun shows because they are in the pockets of the NRA.
Newark emcee Dare Two brings a dope lyrical presence to his music. He flips through his words and find the most unique pockets possible to drop the bars. His originality in itself catches you. And his latest single "Beth Israel" has been catching a lot of attention on its own. Produced by DC Hooligan, it samples a 1930s Cab Calloway classic that was used in Betty Boop cartoons. The song is dedicated to a close loved one who is no longer with Dare. And the raw emotion of the song has caught the attention of 1,000s and 1,000s of people including BrandNewHipHop and the upcoming HypeCity, Philadelphia's Premier Hip-Hop Radio Show, on UTM Radio. With almost 200,000 listens, it is clear that Dare two brings something relatable to the listeners.

When Playboy Magazine founder Hugh Hefner passed away on September 27, 2017, at the age of 91, he was remembered as an innovator and revolutionary.
The publication was founded in 1953. At that time many sex-related topics were considered taboo.
"When I first published Playboy Magazine, and certainly when I grew up and was in college, having a baby out of wedlock was considered a scandal. A scandal that drove some people to suicide," Hefner told TIME during a 2009 interview. "Abortion was illegal. Oral sex was a major felony. Even oral sex inside of marriage was illegal. Very few people know that. Playboy played a major part in changing all of those laws."
Along with helping to change draconian laws, Playboy altered how many people felt about female nudity.
Over the years it would publish photo spreads of some of the most famous women in the world, including Madonna, Marilyn Monroe, Raquel Welch, Bo Derek, Brooke Shields, Cindy Crawford, La Toya Jackson, Pamela Anderson, Drew Barrymore, Charlize Theron and many more.
One person who regrets not posing for Playboy is Lil' Kim. She took to Instagram to mourn Hefner's death and expressed regret for not accepting his offer.
View what she had to say below.
"This is one man that I thought would live forever. Ugh I'm so broken-hearted that I didn't get to spend more time with him," Kim wrote. "Hugh believed in my beauty more than myself, he always put me on a pedestal. If you got to know him it was a pleasure and honor. He was such a great wonderful spirit and so much fun! I remember turning down a non-disclosed 7 figure offer from Hugh and till this day I regret it, not because of the money, but because it would have been an honor to be a part of this beautiful mans archive and historic catalog."

LAS VEGAS (AP) — A gunman perched high on the 32nd floor of a Las Vegas Strip casino unleashed a shower of bullets down on an outdoor country music festival below, killing at least 50 people and wounding more than 200 as tens of thousands of frantic concert-goers screamed and ran for their lives, officials said Monday. It was the deadliest mass shooting in modern U.S. history.
Country music star Jason Aldean was performing Sunday night at the end of the three-day Route 91 Harvest Festival when the gunman opened fire across the street from inside the Mandalay Bay Hotel and Casino. SWAT teams quickly descended on the concert and the casino, and officers used explosives to get into the hotel room where the suspect was inside, authorities said. The gunman died at the scene and was identified by Clark County Sheriff Joseph Lombardo as Stephen Paddock, 64. A motive was not immediately known.
Stephen Paddock
Aldean was in the middle of a song when the shots came rapidly: Pop-pop-pop-pop. Video of the shooting then showed Aldean stopping and the crowd getting quiet as if they were unsure of what had just happened. The gunman paused and then fired another volley of muzzle flashes from the gold glass casino as more victims fell to the ground while others fled in panic. Some said they hid behind concession stands and other crawled under parked cars.

Kodiak Yazzie, 36, said the music stopped temporarily when the first shots began and the tune even started up again before the second round of pops sent the performers ducking for cover and fleeing the stage.
“It was the craziest stuff I’ve ever seen in my entire life,” Yazzie said. “You could hear that the noise was coming from west of us, from Mandalay Bay. You could see a flash- flash- flash- flash.”
Thousands in the crowd fled as the bullets ran rampant. Monique Dumas from British Columbia, Canada, said she was at the concert, six rows from the stage when she thought she heard a bottle breaking, and then a burst of popping sounds that may have been fireworks. She said as she made her way out, it was “organized chaos” as everyone fled. “It took four to five minutes and all that time there was gunfire.”
In addition to Paddock, police said they located a woman who may have been his roommate — Marilou Danley, 62. Lombardo said they believe this was a “lone wolf” attack.
“It’s a devastating time,” Lombardo said.
Police shut down the usually busy Las Vegas Boulevard and authorities across the state and federal ranks converged onto the scene as dozens of ambulances ferried those struck by gunfire. Nearby Interstate 15 and flights at McCarran International Airport were briefly closed. Hospital emergency rooms were jammed with victims delivered by ambulance. Others loaded the wounded into their cars and drove them to hospitals.
Jose Baggett, 31, of Las Vegas, said he and a friend were in the lobby of the Luxor hotel-casino — directly north of the festival — when people began to run, almost like in a stampede. He said people were crying and as he and his friend started walking away minutes later, they encountered police checkpoints where officers were carrying shotguns and assault rifles.
“There were armored personnel vehicles, SWAT vehicles, ambulances, and at least a half-mile of police cars,” Baggett said.
Among those killed were two off-duty police officers who were attending the concert. Two on-duty officers were wounded, including one who underwent surgery and was upgraded to stable condition early Monday, police said.
Hours after the shooting, Aldean posted on Instagram that he and his crew were safe and said the shooting was “beyond horrific.”
“It hurts my heart that this would happen to anyone who was just coming out to enjoy what should have been a fun night,” Aldean said.
President Donald Trump extended condolences to the victims and their families.
In a tweet Monday, Trump offered “My warmest condolences and sympathies to the victims and families of the terrible Las Vegas shooting. God bless you!”

White House spokeswoman Sarah Huckabee Sanders said Trump was “briefed on the horrific tragedy in Las Vegas.”
Sanders said that “we are monitoring the situation closely and offer our full support to state and local officials. All of those affected are in our thoughts and prayers.”
The shooting at the sold-out Route 91 Harvest festival was the deadliest mass shooting in modern U.S. history. Forty-nine people were killed when a gunman opened fire at the Pulse nightclub in Orlando in June 2016.

Sunday’s shooting came more than four months after a suicide bombing at an Ariana Grande concert in Manchester, England, that killed 22 people. Almost 90 people were killed by gunmen inspired by Islamic State at the Bataclan concert hall in Paris during a performance by Eagles of Death Metal in November 2015.
