Lil Wayne Shares Throwback Pic With Kobe Bryant To Celebrate Lakers Win

Last night, the Lakers beat the Miami Heat in the NBA Finals, taking home the Larry O’Brien championship trophy while LeBron James was named this year’s MVP. It was a historical moment, given the times we’re in and the devastating loss of Kobe Bryant earlier this year. The championship felt like a win that the Lakers needed this year and its massive fanbase would agree with that sentiment.

As many took to the ‘gram to celebrate the Lakers’ win in the Bubble, Weezy F. Baby hit the ‘Gram to commemorate yet another championship. There’s no doubt that he had a close relationship with Kobe, naming the late legend his favorite player of all time, above Lebron James and Michael Jordan. The rapper shared a photo of himself and Kobe Bryant together holding the Larry O’Brien and pointing at the camera. Despite Miami’s loss, Lil Wayne quoted 305 legend DJ Khaled to celebrate the Lakers taking in the championship, writing, “And another one!”

The Lakers’ win last night was met with celebration from NBA players and rappers alike. Snoop Dogg took to Instagram after the Lakers won declaring that he wants his money immediately. Needless to say, there are a lot of Lakers fans who got paid off of last night’s game.

Kyle Ashen’s sun-drenched recollection with new release “That Local Girl”

KYLE

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.
