]]> Chief Keef felt pushed over the edge after the deaths of Capo and baby Harris’ death and decides it’s time for him to take action against violence by supporting the Stop The Violence Now Foundation.

The death of Glo Gang associate Capo and a one-year-old baby over the weekend, Chicago, Illinois rapper Chief Keef has revealed his plans to hold a charity concert in his hometown to raise funds for the family of one-year-old Dillan Harris.

According to Pigeons & Planes, due towarrant concerns, Keef will perform at the concert via hologram. The rapper will be broadcasted to those in attendance in Chicago from a soundstage in Beverly Hills, California because Keef currently live in LA.

The concert will be free, but those attending will be encouraged to make a donation.

It was reported over the weekend that Capo was shot twice on Saturday, July 11.  Shortly after Capo’s death, Harris was killed when the shooters fled the scene, spraying bullets that hit the stroller the one-year-old was being carried in.

After hearing about both deaths, Chief Keef revealed that he was both “heartbroken and appalled,” while speaking with the Chicago Tribune. Chief Keef also shared his plans to create the Stop the Violence Now Foundation to help in preventing future acts of violence.  This is ironic because of Chief Keefs active portrayal of guns and violence in most of his music.  It will be interesting to see if his music will shed light on a different type of lifestyle and perspective in the future.

]]> He doesn’t talk much, but when he does, it’s powerful … so when Marshawn Lynch took the stage at a rap show in Oakland last year, he had a strong message for the crowd — STOP KILLING EACH OTHER.

TMZ Sports obtained footage of an emotional Lynch addressing the crowd at The New Parish in his hometown of Oakland, CA in the summer of 2014.

Beast Mode tells the crowd he’s extremely proud to “represent where I’m from on the national mother f**king stage” … but says, “I’ve been losing too many of ya’ll.”

Marshawn is obviously referring to the fact that Oakland is consistently ranked among the most dangerous cities in the country … and had the 2nd highest rate of violent crime in 2014.

“We need to be here for each other,” Lynch said … who also explained why it’s IMPERATIVE that the young people hear his message.

Check out the clip — it’s a side of Lynch most people don’t get to see … but should!This should come as a message after two weeks ago losing Mob Figaz rapper “The Jacka” to gun violence.

Lynch’s love for his hometown is well-documented. “Everything about Oakland,” he once said, “is everything about me.” Lynch has created a foundation, “Family First,” which aims to help the Oakland community in many different ways, and plans to build a community center in the city too. In an interview earlier this year, Lynch’s mentor and good friend Kevin Parker said this of the running back:

He goes to the high schools and middle schools and checks in on the kids. He feeds the community. He clothes the community. He gives back — turkey drives, toy drives, coat drives. That gives you more love than anything you do as a football player. ‘Cause a lot of people don’t have TVs in Oakland — they don’t even watch him play football. But they know when there’s a turkey drive, and they’re lining up by the hundreds … “Who put this on? Marshawn Lynch.”

The city of Oakland has historically been one of the most violent cities in California, but there is reason for some optimism. The city’s homicide rate has dropped for the past two years, down to 86 total homicides in 2014, and nonfatal shootings dropped 13 percent from the previous year. Oakland’s overall crime rate is down too.
