RAP BANNED IN LAS VEGAS?

Las Vegas, Nevada, could become a rap-free zone if officials at the state's Gaming Control Board get their way.

The group managed to halt a recent SNOOP DOGG performance in the city after pressuring casino owners to get involved with a new Sin City clean-up campaign.

In February (06), after a police officer was murdered by a local rapper, the city sheriff's department deemed the banning of rap performances a "legitimate crime-prevention strategy".

The Nevada State Gaming Control Board has now issued a warning to casino operators that rap acts are "serious threats to the community."
