To this point, there aren’t many details on exactly what took place, as the official statements on the matter have been, unsurprisingly, vague given the sensitive nature of the situation, and the reporting beyond that hasn’t offered much beyond Shams Charania noting that Udoka made “unwanted comments” to the woman in question which sparked the team to hire a law firm to investigate the matter.
There were even fewer details on Friday morning prior to the Celtics press conference, but that didn’t stop Stephen A. Smith from offering a vociferous take on the situation and how the Celtics need to answer for allowing this to become public, saying either they should’ve fired him or let him handle it privately.
It certainly seems like, in this clip, Smith had not read the portion of the Charania report that noted there were unwanted comments from Udoka and that this was not just a situation of there being an affair but, clearly, something more. As such, Malika Andrews called into First Take after the Celtics press conference to push back on Stephen A. saying his issue was mostly with Boston, and not Udoka, as well as noting correctly that we clearly don’t have the full picture of the situation, leading to a heated exchange between the two.
It’s unclear when, if at all, we ever will get clarity, which makes it an impossible subject for a show like First Take to discuss properly. It is not a show where Stephen A. Smith says he doesn’t have all the information and as such will be waiting for that and not making any strong comments until that happens. It’s a show where he is to have a strong opinion on every subject and make headlines. For most things in sports, the worst thing that happens is he might look silly when a player or team proves him wrong on the field or court, but in this case it’s far too serious to be making declarative statements and pointing out blame when there’s just not enough information available.
Making that part clearer is what Matt Barnes posted to his Instagram on Friday, when he explained why he deleted his own tweets backing Udoka in a similar manner as Smith, saying that he spoke to someone who called him immediately and explained the situation, saying it’s much worse than what is out there and he took his tweets down because he was given further information.
“This situation is deep, it’s messy, it’s 100X uglier than any of us thought.”
Matt Barnes on why he deleted his words defending Ime Udoka after becoming more informed on the situation last night
What this means specifically, we can’t really know right now, but it should be an indicator to the likes of Stephen A. that it might not be the best idea to stake such a strong claim to a side at this point when it’s clear there is much more we don’t know that could make him look very bad for such little upside.
The release of Guapdad 4000 and LaRussell’s “F*ck 12 Freestyle,” officially ushers in the ambitious Tales Of The Town multimedia project. In its entirety, Tales Of The Town presents not only an album, but also a podcast, book, and short film that all look to present a comprehensive Black History of Oakland.
The album will not only feature the East Bay street rap of Guap and LaRussell, but there are also appearances from staples in the scene like P-Lo, Rexx Life Raj, Allblack, G-Eazy, Elujay, Samaria, and more. The first episode of the podcast entitled “The Great Migration” is already out and it’s hosted by Delency Parham and Abbas Muntaqim of the Oakland-centric Hella Black Podcast.
Tales Of The Town’s website describes it as, “Detailing nearly one hundred years of Oakland history through the people whose families have called Oakland home for generations.” The 12-episode podcast series will look at everything from The Town’s long history of radical activism, crucial stories in sports, the economics of houselessness and gentrification, and more.
On the album’s lead single, LaRussell seemingly sets the stage for the direction of the project’s examinations, rapping, “Never get complacent, the house ain’t a home when it’s vacant. Tryna fry a pig I smell bacon. How they built a hood and a power plant adjacent? Never thought we’d make it in a house from the basement.”

Wizkid has become an undeniable global sensation over the years. As his stardom grows, he looks to bring his infectious Afrobeats jams to New York City once again when he has his first headlining show at Madison Square Garden in November.
Tickets for the November 16 show go on sale next Friday (September 30) at noon through Ticketmaster. Those looking to attend can also purchase their tickets in person starting October 1 at three different box office locations in New York City: Madison Square Garden, Radio City Music Hall, and Beacon Theatre. There is also a special advance sale on Ticketmaster for Chase cardholders beginning on Monday (September 26) at noon and closing on Thursday (September 29) at 10 p.m. ET.
This is a major milestone for the “Essence” artist, who just last year performed a sold-out, three-night run at London’s O2 arena. It is also significant for Nigeria as a whole, as Wizkid will be the second Nigerian artist to ever headline a show at Madison Square Garden, with the first being Burna Boy.
Wizkid released his recent single “Bad For Me” last week, his first release of the year after sharing the deluxe version of Made In Lagos in 2021.

Earlier this summer, celebrity couple Halle Bailey and DDG took turns gushing about their relationship. After DDG told DJ Akademiks that the actress-singer “inspires him,” Halle admitted that she’s in love with the rapper from Pontiac, Michigan. DDG even put Halle in his “If I Want You” video, cemented their partnership in the public eye. It seems like they are both really benefitting from it — and in a recent interview, DDG revealed just how much he’s learning from being with the rising star.
Appearing on the Bootleg Kev Podcast, DDG talked about the backlash to Halle’s casting in the live-action remake of Disney’s The Little Mermaid and how it taught him that society isn’t quite as evolved as he believed. “I didn’t know people was this racist – I didn’t know this was a thing,” he says, admitting to being blown away by the racist #NotMyAriel comments that proliferated in the wake of the film’s teaser trailer debuting Halle as the titular character. “I thought this sh*t was gone already, I thought that sh*t was gone! I thought Martin Luther King [Jr.] canceled that sh*t out! This sh*t is crazy, I was like ‘what the f*ck is these n****s talking about?’”
He also deflects some of the criticism away from his girlfriend, saying, “She be laughing it off [but] they be going a little too hard. But I feel like the people is more attacking the character rather than her, personally.” However, in his estimation, all this negative attention won’t stop the film from being a success; “It’s going number one, regardless!” he predicts.
For what it’s worth, fans of the casting have been sharing videos of their children’s reactions to the teaser and it looks like the target audience — you know, children — are all in, even, yes, the redheads, who already had the original animated version to watch for the past 30 years.
Canadian actor Ryan Grantham has been sentenced to life in prison for murdering his mother during the early days of the pandemic. The 23-year-old actor who has also appeared in The CW’s Riverdale and the Diary of a Wimpy Kid movie reportedly committed the act as part of a larger murder spree that was to include the assassination of Canadian prime minister Justin Trudeau as well as a school shooting.
Ultimately, Grantham never took his plan any further than the murder of his mother and turned himself to authorities. Via The New York Times:
The crime occurred on March 31, 2020, when Grantham, then 21, shot his mother, Barbara Waite, in the back of her head as she played piano in their home in Squamish, a town in British Columbia about 37 miles south of Whistler, Johnson said. Grantham recorded a video shortly after that in which he confessed to the murder and then left by car, Johnson said. Grantham told the authorities that he initially had planned to kill the prime minister, but changed his mind and at some point decided he would carry out a mass shooting, possibly at Simon Fraser University, where he had been a student.
During his sentencing hearing, Grantham’s lawyer argued that his client has a documented history of mental illness and has “committed himself to trying to rehabilitate himself.” Despite the life sentence, Grantham will be eligible for parole in 14 years. Prosecutors had asked for 18 years while Grantham’s attorney argued for 12. The judge split the difference.
Following the news of his Latin Grammy Award nomination this week, Pol Granch dropped his new single “Nena” today (September 23). The Spanish singer-songwriter also announced the release date for his upcoming album Amor Escupido.
Pol Granch received his breakthrough moment last year as part of fellow Spanish singer’s Marc Seguí hit “Tiroteo.” When Puerto Rican superstar Rauw Alejandro jumped on the remix, their collaboration skyrocketed in popularity. The remix has amassed over 381 million streams on Spotify. Granch also received an international boost when he started appearing in the hit Netflix series Elite last year.
This past week, Granch’s name was further boosted when he was announced as one of the Latin Grammy’s nominees for Best New Artist. On the heels of that news, he released his new single “Nena.” The guitar-driven love song reflects the alternative route Granch has taken in his recent singles like “No Te Bastó, Mi Corazón” and “Kriño.” He also has roots in France and it shows in his accent as he sweetly serenades his lover in a heartfelt performance.
Granch also revealed the cover art and the release date for his album Amor Escupido. The LP will be released on October 28. All the aforementioned tracks, including “Nena,” will appear on the album. The collaborations include “Platicamos” with Mexican singer Leon Leiden and “Desconexión” with Spanish EDM act Garabatto.
Amor Escupido is out 10/28 via Sony Music Spain. Pre-order it here.
Norman Reedus is taking his iconic Walking Dead character Daryl over to Europe this fall for a new spinoff after the long-running show comes to an end after eleven years on the air. It was announced in 2020 that Reedus and Melissa McBride would get their own show in The Walking Dead universe, though McBride exited the series shortly after due to the fact that the production would take place in Europe.
Fans were upset about the upcoming unnamed series, though Reedus stayed cryptic about the show. When asked about how the spinoff will work without McBride, Reedus carefully responded, “How do you know she’s not gonna come back?”
Even though he won’t give any direct answers, Reedus confirms that the timing of the series had a lot to do with McBride exiting the project.
“The spinoff was announced before we even announced The Walking Dead was ending. We always thought we were doing a show that would come back to the flagship show — we’d take off, then come back to the flagship show. Then they ended the flagship show, and it was us on our own. And then we shot for a year and a half straight, through the beginning of COVID.At that point, Melissa wasn’t going to do the show. And then she was going to do show. And then she wasn’t going to do the show. And then she needed a break and I went on TV and said she needs a break.”
McBride exited the show earlier this year, and Reedus defended her against the harsh backlash. “But you don’t know she’s not going to show up on the spinoff,” he added. “She’s a very big part of Daryl’s story. It’s all gonna be OK.”
Still, fans have many questions when it comes to the upcoming show. What will it be called? Is Daryl going to die after all? And how on EARTH did he get to Europe?! The world may never know.
There is a lot of early-to-mid 2000s CGI that did not age well. There are the wolves in Twilight: New Moon, the baby in Twilight: Breaking Dawn Part—honestly, anything in any of the Twilight movies will do. Of course, CGI has aged well in some movies, but James Cameron was a little nervous about seeing Avatarback on the big screen.
Avatar might have come out in 2009, but the upcoming installment will hit theaters this December, over a decade after the first movie was released. Cameron recently told EWthat he was unsure of how it would compare to the new movie. “I went into that screening worried that it was going to be a bit cringe-worthy relative to the new film, which looks pretty spectacular,” Cameron said after seeing the film again in theaters.
“As the film ended, I went, ‘Hmm, I don’t know. I’m now worried about the new film,’” the director quipped, before adding, “That’s not true. I’m not worried about the new film. It looks pretty amazing. But I am hopeful that people will get out to the cinema and either discover or rediscover that experience so that they know what an Avatar movie’s all about.” Yes, that’s what it is all about, not water or the color blue or anything.
The first installment recently made its way back into theaters with a new and improved look. Cameron added that his kids were able to see it in the theater for the first time since the remastering. “I got to watch it with my kids, who are 15, 18, and 21, recently. And they hadn’t seen it in 3D in a theater, certainly not in the state that it’s in right now because it’s more gorgeous than it’s ever been.”
So, despite being nervous about the “cringey-ness” of CGI, it all looked good in the end. As for the storyline…it’s still a little cringey. Sorry.
House of the Dragon may still be ruling our appointment viewing in October, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t more shows and movies worth checking out on HBO and HBO Max this month.
For instance, Mike White’s doomed resort comedy, The White Lotus, returns for a new vacation with the same old kind of problems (and problematic people) while Avenue 5 takes us back into space for a comedy of errors.
Here’s everything coming to and leaving HBO and HBO Max this month.
The White Lotus: Season 2 (HBO original premieres 10/30)
Mike White’s dark comedy about a group of privileged tourists running amuck at a Hawaiin resort left audiences wanting more when its limited run came to an end last year. So, naturally, HBO has turned it into a sort of anthology series, giving us a second season set in in Sicily, Italy, following new guests and resort employees. Although they have brought Jennifer Coolidge back, thank god.
Avenue 5: Season 2 (HBO original premieres 10/10)
This Hugh Laurie-led space comedy returns for more anti-gravity adventures. After failing to course correct last season, Laurie’s space captain must quell growing unease aboard his ship as passengers discover their eight-week cruise has turned into an eight-year voyage and their food supply might not last that long.

“Words And Guitar” is one of the loudest, most raucous, yet incredibly melodic tunes in the Sleater-Kinney discography. It takes a special talent to cover it with the vigor that can stand up to Corin Tucker’s screeching staccato, Carrie Brownstein’s lead riff and retro backing vocals, and Janet Weiss’ thunder and lightning beat. Courtney Barnett — who recently featured Sleater-Kinney on her compilation album — is an ace level choice to take on “Words And Guitar,” but in her new cover version of the 1997 tune, she’s damn near flipped it on its head.
Barnett’s cover of “Words And Guitar” is part of Sleater-Kinney’s newly-announced Dig Me In: A Dig Me Out Cover Album that celebrates the 25th anniversary of their iconic third album, which also happens to be their best-selling release of all-time. Due out on October 21st and also serving as a benefit for Portland’s LGBTQIA+ youth center, SMYRC, the album features covers by St. Vincent, Wilco, Jason Isbell, and more in addition to Barnett.
If Barnett’s version sounds quite a bit different from the original, there’s a reason for that: “The artists who appear on Dig Me In have not so much covered the 13 original songs, but reinterpreted and reimagined them,” Sleater-Kinney said in a statement. “Through added layers or the subtraction of guitars and drums, they provide a new way into the songs. Fresh rage, joy, pain, reclamation, slyness, and longing. Other interpretations slow down or stretch out the songs, trading urgency for contemplation, weariness or even a hint of ease.”
Listen to Barnett’s cover of “Words And Guitar” above and check out the album artwork and tracklist for Dig Me In: A Dig Me Out Cover Album below.
