Matt Barnes & Cyn Santana Rumored To Be Dating: Report
Internet sleuths are once again putting their skills to the test by piecing together timelines and social media photos. The word around the block on Tuesday (October 6) is that former NBA star Matt Barnes and Love & Hip Hop’s Cyn Santana have been seeing each other for some time. While it seems that the gossip about their clandestine relationship has been brewing for months, only recently did people begin to put two-and-two together by comparing each of their recent photos shared to their prospective Instagram Stories.

By the looks of things, they each were enjoying a closely similar view of the Empire State Building in New York at the exact same time. Neither party has confirmed or denied the romance rumors, but after they each had their relationships and breakups played out for a public audience, it isn’t surprising that they’ve chosen to keep this under wraps.
Matt Barnes recently split with the mother of his youngest child, Anansa Sims, and their rocky split was revealed on social media. Joe Budden proposed to Cyn Santana and the two share a son together, but they’ve since called off their engagement and have moved forward.

Kyle Ashen’s sun-drenched recollection with new release “That Local Girl”
Kyle Ashen’s latest release, “That Local Girl,” is a gorgeous trip down memory lane, a country single that explores that golden glow of memory, like flipping through old photographs touched by salt air and summer sunlight. It’s warm, cinematic, and deeply relatable, a song about the kind of love story that never quite goes away, even as time moves on.
“That Local Girl” is filled with imagery that quickly takes the listener into a world they can walk right into. You got a blonde-haired, blue-eyed girl on a boardwalk street by the ocean, a souped-up truck driving through town, neon lights reflecting off the ocean breeze, and the electric innocence of young love burning in the background.
But under all that cutesy trapping is something more than that, longing. Some people, some places that leave permanent marks on Kyle Ashen and us know that. What’s so brilliant about this song is that it marries those two ideas, making love and hometown memory feel beautifully inseparable. Sometimes you miss a person. And with that person, you miss an entire version of life. “That Local Girl” is more than a country love song from Kyle Ashen. He is a living postcard from the past, sun-faded, bittersweet, and glowing with feeling. A reminder that summers pass by, but some memories stay with us forever.
