The NFL and Roc Nation have announced singer/songwriter Blackway’s single “Heavyweight” as the first single in the 2020 NFL Songs of the Season series. The song was premiered during ESPN’s Monday Night Football battle between the New Orleans Saints and Los Angeles Chargers.
The song was written and produced by Blackway this year, with the Inspire Change and Songs of the Season series in mind. You may have previously heard Blackway on “What’s Up Danger” from the Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse soundtrack.
“I like to make music that motivates people. My fans tell me those types of songs make them feel like a superhero,” said Blackway. “I wanted to bring that same energy when I got the opportunity to work on this song for the NFL. I feel like athletes are the closest thing we see to superheroes and being able to give back through my music with Inspire Change makes me feel like one, too.”
“The NFL is excited to launch the second year of Songs of the Season with Blackway,” said Anna Isaacson, NFL Senior Vice President of Social Responsibility. “We hope the series will help raise awareness for social injustices and provide resources to organizations working to reduce barriers to opportunity in our communities.”
You will also hear the song during the Buffalo Bills and Tennessee Titans clash Tuesday on CBS.
Songs of the Season is a dual effort to highlighting rising artists and established superstars while taking the revenue generated to benefit organizations support by Inspire Change, the NFL’s social justice initiative focused on reducing barriers to opportunity in four priority areas: education, economic advancement, police and community relations, and criminal justice reform.

Keyshia Cole’s Instagram Drama, Reactivation Sparks Firestorm Over Hunxho’s Steamy Shots with Gloss Up
Keyshia Cole’s Instagram Drama, Reactivation Sparks Firestorm Over Hunxho’s Steamy Shots with Gloss Up
Keyshia Cole‘s Instagram hiatus was short-lived, but the drama it stirred certainly wasn’t. The R&B star recently made waves by deactivating and then reactivating her account, all to address the sizzling controversy surrounding her boyfriend, Hunxho, and Gloss Up’s latest collaboration.
Earlier today, Gloss Up dropped the music video for their joint track “Come Here,” sending fans into a frenzy. But while the audience was grooving to the beat, Keyshia Cole was feeling anything but love. The video showcased Gloss Up and Hunxho in intimate scenes, from twerking to bathtub hangs, raising eyebrows especially since Cole and Hunxho only recently went public with their relationship.
In a swift social media move, Cole briefly disappeared from Instagram, prompting speculation. But Gloss Up’s subsequent posts, featuring cozy shots with Hunxho and suggestive captions, sparked Cole’s reactivation and a fiery clapback.
“Him playing the ‘sneaky link’ while I’m here thinking marriage? That’s just low,” Cole exclaimed, punctuating her response with laughter. Despite her disappointment, she extended well wishes to Gloss Up’s project, albeit with a hint of sarcasm.
The timeline of the photos remains a point of contention, with Cole asserting they were taken pre-relationship. Yet, Gloss Up’s persistent taunting on social media, including retweets hinting at a prior connection with Hunxho, keeps the tension alive.
As the internet buzzes with opinions on Gloss Up’s video and Cole’s candid reaction, Hunxho himself has remained relatively silent, save for a cryptic tweet. The drama continues to unfold, leaving fans eager for more updates.
What’s your take on Gloss Up’s provocative video and Cole’s unfiltered response? Join the conversation below, and stay tuned to Honk Magazine for the latest developments.
