Las Vegas.

the rapper Tupac was shot while leaving the MGM
Grand in Vegas back in September of 1996.
He died of his injuries six days later in the hospital.

And another story in the music world singer Jason Aldean
has spoken out to defend his song and music video.
You probably heard about this controversy.
The song is called Try that in a small town for contact.
This song came out in May and the music video was released five days
ago and that's what sparked a conversation about the lyrics and the visuals.
The lyrics reference acts like robbery,
spitting on a cop and burning a flag followed by quote, we'll try,
we'll try that in a small town.
See how far you make it down the road.
Reports also say the music video was filmed outside the Moy
County courthouse in Tennessee.
That's where an 18 year old was lynched. Back in 1927.
Last night, Aldeen responded to the controversy with a long tweet saying in part,
this quote
in the past 24 hours, I have been accused of releasing a pro lynching song.
He continued.
These references are references are not only meritless but dangerous.
The singer also said the song is about a desire to
return to small town values and a sense of normalcy,
country music television, pulled the music video on Monday,
right. Let's move on to some lighter news. Some pinker news even.
