(CNN) Vanessa Bryant was not amused by Meek Mill referencing the tragic death of her husband, Kobe Bryant, in his latest song. Bryant took to her Instagram Stories to slam Mill for a lyric in his new song "Don't Worry (RIP Kobe)" which leaked online. "If I ever lack, I'm goin' out with my chopper, it be another Kobe." "I find this line to be extremely insensitive and disrespectful. Period," Bryant wrote. "I am not familiar with any of your music, but I believe you can do better than this.

Mill responded to the backlash in a tweet on Tuesday writing that he had reached out to Bryant to apologize. Read More "I apologized to her in private earlier today not to the public ...

‘Despacito’ Opening Doors for Spanish Songs on English Radio
NEW YORK - “Despacito” is easily the song of the summer with the success of the hit stretching beyond Spanish-speaking audiences to make it the year's most recognized song in the U.S. and elsewhere. Luis Fonsi and Daddy Yankee's song, which has topped the Billboard Hot 100 chart for 13 weeks and counting, set a record as the most streamed song on Spotify and is the first YouTube video to reach 3 billion views. The song also has opened the door for other Spanish tracks to get airplay on American radio. “The beauty behind (‘Despacito’) is that it was never meant to be a crossover song. When I sat down with my guitar to write this song, I just wanted to write a great song that people would automatically connect to, and dance to, and really enjoy, so it was so nice to see how — in a very organic way — the whole world just connected to it,” Fonsi said in an interview from Spain, where he was set to perform the worldwide hit.

Rockies’ Daniel Bard happy to be more than baseball’s feel-good story
SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. — If Daniel Bard’s encore season lacks the intrigue and suspense of 2020 that will be just fine with him. Last year at this time, the Rockies right-hander faced an uncertain future. Sure, he’d impressed the Rockies during a showcase in front of a group of major league scouts, but there were no guarantees he’d stick around. Bard, 35, had been absent from the majors for more than seven years because of a severe case of the yips. At one point, unable to control his bouts of wildness, he came oh so close to retiring. The biggest difference between now and then? “This year I have a job,” he said with a self-deprecating chuckle. Now, after his storybook comeback , he could very well be the Rockies’ closer for 2021. Bard finished last season in that role and put up impressive numbers, posting a 3.65 ERA in 23 appearances and notching six saves in six chances. The MLB Players Association named him comeback player of the year. “It’s kind of strange to look … [Read more...] about Rockies’ Daniel Bard happy to be more than baseball’s feel-good story
