One of the biggest and most sensational developments in modern hip-hop came in the form of the recent Kendrick Lamar-Drake feud. The two rap giants have moved ahead in a tussle, with several diss tracks being fired from both sides. Additionally, it has also involved other rappers such as the likes of Ye, Metro Boomin, and The Weeknd, calling them to choose their team. Now, in an interesting development, the latest pair to get involved in this mix is the father-son duo of Tom Hanks and Chet Hanks.

The duo’s conversation made its way to social media and has several fans rolling in hysteria and amazement. A detailed explanation from the son to the acclaimed actor, who still appeared clueless, had the Internet in splits. Regardless, the summary still highlighted the intensity of the feud and its knocking on the Hanks’ doors.

Exclusive: Sangita Myska is unlikely to be restored to influential UK news radio station Lbc after being taken off air in opaque circumstances, sparking a revolt among listeners.
The former BBC journalist was abruptly removed from her Lbc weekend show on April 20 and was replaced by Ali Miraj, a former Conservative Party parliamentary candidate.
Myska being “disappeared” has stoked anger among Lbc’s 3M listeners, with more than 22,000 people signing a petition demanding she be reinstated in her 1-4Pm slot on Saturday and Sunday.
Her treatment has also surprised some colleagues, with supporters arguing that Lbc’s parent company Global had mishandled how her departure had been communicated. Global and Myska declined to comment.
The lack of explanation about her exit has fueled viral online speculation that she was suspended for her robust interview with Israeli government spokesperson Avi Hyman on April 14.

Two months ago, when comedian Matt Rife announced his ProbleMATTic World Tour with Live Nation, he moved around 600,000 tickets over the span of just 48 hours, experiencing the culmination of 12 long years on the road.
Remarkably, this was just the artist presale, with Rife ultimately going on to sell 720,000+ tickets to 300 shows, including eight back-to-back at the Chicago Theatre, six at Radio City Music Hall, and four at the Mohegan Sun Arena in Connecticut.

Since early March, when Covid-19 was declared a global pandemic, and businesses across the United States started to shutter, live comedy — like all kinds of live performance — has been virtually nonexistent. In trying times marked by a deadly pandemic, extreme political division and general unease, the coronavirus-related shutdown has left people without the much-needed levity and communal experience that stand-up comedy provides.
The Los Angeles comedy scene’s best-known venues, including the famed Comedy Store, have been unable to open, impatiently awaiting the moment when crowds will be able to return to their seats indoors. In their place, a number of outdoor comedy events have started to spring up.
