Whatever your opinion is, it cant be denied how much of a change WorldStarHipHop had on the culture (as well as media) as a whole. With that said, it sucks to hear that its creator — Lee “Q” O’Denat — has passed at the age of 43. As seen on TMZ:

We’re told Q, the CEO of WorldStar and its face, died in his sleep Monday night.

An autopsy is scheduled for later today … although one source tells us Q died of a heart attack.

RIP.
