DaBaby And Dua Lipa Help TNT Kick Off The NBA Season With An Optimisic New Video

DaBaby shares some inspiring words to get the new season started on a high note. …

The 2020 NBA Finals only just wrapped up in mid-October, but due to the league’s pandemic-altered schedule, the 2020-21 season is already starting tonight after a quick offseason with a pair of games. Both will be broadcast on TNT, and DaBaby and Dua Lipa are helping the network and the league start things right with a new promotional video.

The soon-to-be-former rapper begins the video by saying, “‘Tis the season, the season of believing. NBA opening night gives everyone hope. Every fan, every city, every team, every player. You see that look. This game keeps us looking up. That’s where the ball is. That’s where the banners at. Sure, there’s a time to hit the floor, but sometimes, you gotta tell gravity, ‘Hold on, hold on, hold on: I got something to do. Let’s levitate.’”

From there, he calls on Lipa, at which point the video for her and DaBaby’s version of “Levitating” plays between clips of the NBA’s biggest stars doing their thing. DaBaby later ends the video, “Hope is a launchpad. There’s power in powering forward, so keep your head up, because after this year, I feel like we all need to rise up with our eyes up. It’s a new season of the NBA on TNT.”

Check out the video above.

Dua Lipa is a Warner Music artist. Uproxx is an independent subsidiary of Warner Music Group.

Ava Valianti turns self-doubt into art with “Laugh Track”

Ava Valianti

In her new single, “Laugh Track,” Ava Valianti takes us on a peculiar journey through her thoughts and feelings, which many can connect to. With a mix of dark humor and raw honesty, Ava shares her experience of feeling like life is more of a series of awkward moments rather than a smooth story where she’s the star.

Drawing inspiration from movies and shows that explore deep emotions, like The Truman Show and How I Met Your Mother’s Ted Mosby, “Laugh Track” captures the unsettling feeling of always being on stage, even when nobody’s watching. It resounds with anyone who has sat alone and questioned whether the laughter around them is meant for them or at their expense.

The song combines deeper sounds with a light, catchy vibe, making its heavy themes approachable enough for dancing. Ava’s voice is strong and open, giving each line an authentic feeling that hits home.

Laugh Track” is a stand-out because it embraces chaos. Ava doesn’t wrap up her insecurity and self-doubt in a tidy package. Instead, she celebrates the messiness of life and finds comfort in the imperfect characters we often see on TV and in ourselves. “Laugh Track” mirrors our experiences. Like the best comedy shows, it makes you laugh, feel uncomfortable, and reminds you that you’re not alone in your struggles.
