Rising artist Dunc just dropped a hot new album titled "Drunken Duncan". Check it out below and follow him on social media for his latest releases.
Several players from the Norman High School girls basketball team have broken their silence about the racist comments directed at them by a game announcer ... & they're calling for action.
It's powerful stuff.
The players have teamed up with famous civil rights attorney Ben Crump -- who has worked with the families of several high-profile victims of police or racial violence ... from Ahmaud Arbery to Breonna Taylor, George Floyd & Jacob Blake.
Crump held a news conference Monday with several of the players & their families -- who all spoke out about Matt Rowan, the announcer who hurled the n-word at the team for their decision to take a knee during the national anthem.
As we previously reported, Rowan's comments were caught on a hot mic & people at home could hear him bashing the NHS players who were demonstrating to spotlight police brutality & racial injustice.
During his rant, Rowan said he hoped the Norman team would get their asses kicked on the court that night.
Rowen later apologized for his language & said he's a Type-1 diabetic who loses his ability to censor himself when his blood sugar is high, which he claims happened that night.
FYI, the Norman High School girls basketball team went on to win the Oklahoma 6-A state championship over the weekend.
The players say they were obviously hurt & shocked by the comments -- but they're proud of the way they stood together as a team & still WON the whole tourney!
Ben Crump says there are no plans to take legal action at this time ... but continued to praise the team for thriving in such a challenging moment.

NEW YORK (AP) — Half a year after his death, Chadwick Boseman was posthumously nominated for an Academy Award on Monday for his final performance in “Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom.”
The nomination for best actor was widely expected but still historic. Boseman is the first Black performer ever nominated posthumously for an Oscar. He was nominated alongside Steven Yeun (“Minari”), Riz Ahmed (“Sound of Metal”), Anthony Hopkins (“The Father”) & Gary Oldman (“Mank”).
Only 7 actors have previously been nominated after their death: Jeanne Eagels, James Dean, Spencer Tracy, Peter Finch, Ralph Richardson, Massimo Troisi and Heath Ledger. Two ultimately won: Finch for his performance in 1976′s “Network” and Ledger for 2008′s “The Dark Knight.”
Many predict Boseman will also win for a performance that’s been called the best of his life. Last month, he also won the Golden Globe for best actor in a drama. Boseman’s widow, Taylor Simone Ledward, accepted the award on his behalf.
Boseman died last August of colon cancer at age 43. Three months later, the August Wilson adaptation “Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom” was released by Netflix. Boseman plays Levee, the ambitious trumpeter whose dreams end tragically during a recording session with Ma Rainey (Viola Davis) at a white-owned record label.
Boseman also performed in Spike Lee’s “Da 5 Bloods” as a U.S. soldier in the Vietnam War — a performance that has also found awards attention. Boseman was nominated posthumously by the Screen Actors Guild Awards for his performances in both “Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom” & his supporting turn in “Da 5 Bloods.”
After his death, none of Boseman’s collaborators on either film said they knew he was ailing. He was diagnosed with Stage 3 colon cancer in 2016.
It’s Boseman’s first Oscar nomination.

After months of arduous negotiations between competing promoters and rival champions, the contract for a two-fight deal between Tyson Fury & Anthony Joshua to unify the heavyweight titles has been finally signed.
"We'd like to get a site deal confirmed in the next month," said Eddie Hearn, managing director of Matchroom Sport, Joshua's promoter. "The hard part is always getting everybody to put pen to paper. But this was a major effort from all parties to get this over the line. You had rival promoters, rival networks & rival fighters."
Not to mention, rival egos, always a factor in boxing. The final signature came Saturday, in a Provision of Services agreement whose signees are believed to include Fury & Joshua; Joshua's promoter, Matchroom Boxing; Fury's American promoter, Top Rank; Fury's English promoter, Queensbury; & Fury's management company, Dubai-based MTK.
With the terms of the deal now agreed, principals can solicit offers from prospective sites.
"I actually feel we've done the hard part," said Hearn. "Speaking for myself, Anthony & his team at 258 management, I know how hard we've worked hard these last couple of months & I just feel that this fight is so big it's not a difficult sell. We've already had approaches from eight or nine sites. The offers have come from multiple countries in the Middle East, from Asia, eastern Europe & America."
"This is the biggest fight in boxing & one of the biggest sporting events in the world," Hearn said. "It will be a major, major win for a country that wants to showcase itself."

(CNN) All hail Queen Bey!
Beyoncé went into the Grammys Sunday with nine nominations, the most of any artist for the night.
And oh what a night it was for her.
By the time it ended, she had broken the record for the most Grammys won by a woman and any singer, male or female, with 28 -- also tying the record with music impresario Quincy Jones as the living person with the most Grammys.
Queen Bey surpassed bluegrass-country singer Alison Krauss who previously held the record with 27.
The winning streak started before the televised ceremony when Beyoncé and her 9-year-old daughter Blue Ivy Carter won the award for best music video award for the single, "Brown Skin Girl."
Beyoncé and fellow Houston native Megan Thee Stallion also made history as the first pair of women to ever win best rap performance with the remix of Megan Thee Stallion's "Savage." The pair then went on to win for best rap song for the same tune.
But it Beyoncé's win for best R & B performance for "Black Parade" that put her over the top.
She said she was overwhelmed by breaking the record.
"I've been working my whole life, since 9 years old, and I can't believe this happened," she said.
The Grammy telecast included a brief salute to Beyoncé's ground-breaking visual album, "Black Is King."

NEW CARLISLE, Ind — The St. Joseph County Metro Homicide Unit Saturday evening released the name of a 6-year-old girl who was reported missing Friday and later found dead, leading to the arrest of an unidentified 14-year-old boy.
Grace Ross was reported missing at 6:30 p.m. Friday, having been last seen in the area of Chapman Drive. She was found two hours later in a wooded area near Chapman, the Metro Homicide Unit said in a press release.
In a press release Saturday evening from the St. Joseph County prosecutor's office, which oversees Metro Homicide, the office said the 14-year-old was not being named because he is "progressing through the juvenile system."
An autopsy for Grace is scheduled for Sunday morning.
This is an open and active investigation.

(WXYZ) — Now that Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer has opened up COVID-19 vaccine eligibility to all Michiganders ages 16 & older, beginning next month, the focus now turns to convincing more people to get the vaccine. Surveys show 1/3 of Americans are still hesitant to get vaccinated.
Vaccines only work if people take them. A vast majority of people have to get vaccinated in order to reach herd immunity & stop the coronavirus from spreading.
However, a recent survey by the Kaiser Family Foundation shows about 31% of the U.S. population is still hesitant about getting the COVID-19 vaccine.
What that means is they want to “wait & see” how the vaccine is working for other people before getting it.
Here are the main reasons for this hesitancy:
- Worries about safety & long-term side effects
- A lack of trust in the government
- Concerns that the vaccine is too new
- And, worries that they will contract COVID-19 from the vaccine.
Interestingly, 60% of the adults in this “wait & see” group do not yet know someone who has been vaccinated.
First of all, vaccine hesitancy is normal & natural. Here are some ways to overcome it or help someone else to get past their uncertainty.
First, get answers to your questions about the vaccine. I encourage you to research credible sources, like the CDC website, where you can find vaccine myths & facts.
-If you have already been vaccinated, share your experience with those who are hesitant. - And talk about the known side effects and other concerns with your trusted health care provider, so you know what to expect.

Rising artist Kietell is back with more heat! Check out his hot new single titled "Pressure" below and follow him on social media for his latest releases.
Marvelous Marvin Hagler -- former middleweight champion and one of the greatest boxers who ever lived -- has died ... this according to his wife.
A post with the sad news went up Saturday on Hagler's official fan club page on Facebook, reading ... "I am sorry to make a very sad announcement. Today unfortunately my beloved husband Marvelous Marvin passed away unexpectedly at his home here in New Hampshire. Our family requests that you respect our privacy during this difficult time."
The note was signed by his wife, Kay. The exact circumstances of his death weren't released.
Hagler has gone down in history as a boxing great, & perhaps one of the best -- if not THE best -- middleweight fighters to step in the ring. He held the title as the undisputed middleweight champion of the world from 1980 to 1987 ... an incredible run.
He got his first title shot in '79 against Vito Antuofermo -- which got called a draw, despite many feeling Hagler had taken it. He got a 2nd shot at the title the following year ... this time against Alan Minter -- whom Hagler pounded into a 3rd round stoppage.
Year after year, Hagler successfully defended his title ... but one of the most brutal bouts to date ended up going down against Tommy Hearns in 1985, which got billed as 'The War.' It only went three rounds, but all of them were brutal ... especially that opening one, which is regarded as one of the most violent & action-packed to date.
Hagler's reign came to an end in 1987 against none other than boxing icon Sugar Ray Leonard, who came out of retirement for another shot at the title. They went all twelve rounds, & despite many saying Hagler got the better of SRL ... the latter was announced as the winner in a split decision. Granted, Leonard landed a higher percentage of punches.
Hagler is survived by his current wife & five children from a previous marriage. He was 66.
