Last night the Thunder played a road game against the Utah Jazz and Russell Westbrook got into a spat with a fan. Westbrook was clearly agitated by what was said to him from the heckling fan and went on a verbal tirade, attacking both the man and his wife. From the video alone, it looks like Westbrook may have gone too far, but as the night went on, more layers unfolded.
After the game, the media found the man who got into the verbal altercation with Westbrook to get his side of the story. The man, Shane Keisel, played the role of victim and claims that Westbrook went too far for what he claimed to be a harmless conversation. In the video below, Keisel calls Westbrook “classless” and expressed his displeasure with the comments directed at his wife.

The story took social media by storm and led some people to investigate the background of Keisel and found that he has had clear issues with Westbrook in the past. His twitter account is filled with racially charged tweets towards Westbrook, associated with his support of President Donald Trump.
So Shane Keisel, who has tweeted for Russell Westbrook to go back where he came from, who yelled racial remarks at Westbrook tonight, and who punctualizes his racist remarks with MAGA, also spent 17 years as a police sargeant for Utah Highway Patrol.

After the game, Westbrook gave his side of the story and seemed to have cleared the air on what had exactly happened. It appears that Westbrook may have been justified in his anger towards the fan, especially when you consider his tweets.
Russell Westbrook says the comment from the Jazz fan that set him off was: “Get down on your knees like you’re used to.” pic.twitter.com/i0vIlblSwJ
This incident brings forward the debate on whether fans should be able to yell at players and stay in the arena. It also questions whether players should be allowed to retaliate when they hear things directed towards them. The story dominated social media last night and should be an issue that carries on over the next few weeks.

Juice WRLD dropped a new video for the track “Hear Me Calling” off his new album “Death Race For Love.” I wrote a review for this album on Friday and this was one of my least favorite tracks. While the song was not my favorite, I do have to say the video is really fun to watch. It’s pretty much Juice making his own version of a GTA video game as he is in hot pursuit of his girl; very fitting for his album artwork. I liked the video a lot, the song… not so much.

A week after he dropped his latest album “Rap or Go To The League,” 2 Chainz released a new video this afternoon. “Rule The World” features Ariana Grande on both the track and video. The video takes place inside of an old fashioned night club that glooms with gold to match the album cover, and the beat on this track is lighter, providing a more classic feel to it, naturally synching with the environment in the video.
The album has received solidreviews across the board since it’s release, and having people like Ariana Grande on your record will certainly help it do numbers considering she has been on fire since the release of her album “Sweetner” last fall. The songs great, the albums great, and so is the video.

Hozier stopped by the New York City subway this weekend to sing some tunes for the “Big Apple” commuters. There isn’t much else to say, other than the fact that he crushed it. He sang a rendition of his hit song “Take Me To Church” and sounds just as good, if not better than the studio version. It’s really an incredible video to watch and if you haven’t heard the original version I implore you to go check it out before watching this video. Shoutout to NYC, this stuff doesn’t happen anywhere else.

Drake is making the rounds on his European tour and has dropped his song “Don’t Matter To Me” from his setlist. The song features vocals from Michael Jackson who has recently received some damaging claims about sexual misconduct with minors.
Jackson has been the subject of criticism in the new HBO Docuseries “Leaving Neverland” and there has been some serious backlash against the late pop star. Radio stations have stopped playing his music and an episode of “The Simpsons” was removed from the archives due to an appearance from Jackson.

Drake is arguably the biggest artist to come forth and actually make a decision against Jackson based off of the claims, so it will be interesting to see if anymore people speak out against the “King of Pop.”
