Kenton Place Continues to Turn Heads With Their Latest Rendition of “Pride Never Lasts.”

The alternative rock band Kenton Place has released the newest version of their 2019 track, “Pride Never Lasts.” The new rendition is a part of their five-song EP, “Terminal,” released two months ago. In collaboration with Grammy-winning producer Ulrich Wild and Grammy-winning mastering engineer Ted Jensen, “Pride Never Lasts” ties into the EP as the final stage of grief, acceptance. It is about letting go of one’s pride and embracing loss.

“Pride Never Lasts” commences on a quiet, lyrical guitar and vocal entrance. A rhythmic groove played on percussion instruments creeps its way into the mix gradually and eventually develops into a driving rock groove. The level of intensity steadily rises over the entirety of the track.

Kenton Place is one of the highly revered rock bands in the industry at the moment, comprised of four friends from Houston, Texas: vocalist/guitarist Logan Smalley (Smalls), drummer Noe Hernandez (Fez), lead guitarist Roque Techera (Rock, the hero), and bass guitarist Curtis Bird (Mr. Bird).

The band participated in the SXSW Creative Industries Expo in the past, played co-headlined performances at their hometown’s White Oak Music Hall, and were in heavy rotation on Houston’s 94.5 The Buzz radio station. A succession of follow-up singles has been released during the course of the previous year. Now, they have compiled the tunes into a new record, which also includes the new version of “Pride Never Lasts.” Kenton Place evokes the sound and spirit of some contemporary rock gods by displaying their inspirations with pride and wearing it like a badge of honor.

Kenton Place’s new EP, “Terminal,” is now available on Spotify and other streaming services, along with the most recent version of “Pride Never Lasts.” To connect with Kenton Place, follow the band on its social media handles.

Lil Durk Co Defendants OTF Dede and David Lindsey Seek Acquittal and New Trial

OTF Dede and David Lindsey are fighting their recent stalking convictions as the legal process in Lil Durk’s case continues to play out.

Lil Durk was facing five charges, two of them murder-for-hire related and three of them stalking related, while the two co-defendants were convicted on three counts of stalking in the same case. Durk was just cleared of all charges in that case a couple of weeks ago, but Dede and Lindsey didn’t get the same result.

The latest legal twist adds another chapter to a case that has remained tightly connected to Lil Durk’s ongoing legal troubles. Durk was acquitted in the initial murder-for-hire case, but his larger legal battle is far from over.

For Dede and Lindsey, the immediate issue is their stalking convictions and whether the court will grant either of the new requests filed. The couple’s pleas carry long prison sentences, and the pending motions are especially important for their attorneys.
The court has not ruled on the Rule 29 and Rule 33 motions, leaving the next phase of litigation uncertain.

Lil Durk, meanwhile, is set to appear in court on November 4 for a bond hearing. His trial in the VICAR case was scheduled for the next few weeks, but it is likely to be delayed.

Separate legal proceedings are now moving forward in the cases of Durk, Dede, and Lindsey, who remain active. Dede and Lindsey’s latest filings ensure that the group’s legal saga continues even after Durk’s acquittal in the original case.

Meek Mill steps back from his ongoing feud with DJ Akademiks,

Meek Mill and DJ Akademiks’ ongoing social media beef has taken another turn, with Meek seemingly getting the last word.

The two have been feuding for around a decade, and their tensions have become closely tied to the fallout from Meek’s beef with Drake. Following Akademiks taking Drake’s side in the public feud, Meek clearly didn’t want to be featured on Akademiks’ page. Since then, they have exchanged occasional messages and renewed disagreements.

The latest chapter heated up around the Lil Durk trial. Meek Mill called out Akademiks for his coverage and commentary on the case, saying he had become a bad influence on the culture.

Akademiks fired back hard, and the beef snowballed into a back and forth of threats between the two. At one point, Meek asked for Akademiks’ address, while Akademiks showed off an arsenal of machine guns and rifles. The confrontation had been really serious before apparently cooling off in recent days.

The message is the latest chapter in a long-running feud that has flared up several times over the past decade. This latest back-and-forth could be Meek’s attempt to close the door on the feud, but given the history between the two, tensions can flare up fast.
So far, it looks like Meek is putting a line under his part of the conversation. Only time will tell whether Akademiks responds.
