Ryan Garcia’s Apology and Hawaiian Party, Is the Boxer Truly Changing His Ways

Ryan Garcia

Boxer Ryan Garcia has been at the center of a storm of controversy, largely stemming from alleged nasty texts to his ex-wife, Andrea Celina, and accusations of trashing her home. In response, Garcia posted an apology video on social media directly addressing Celina. “I came on here just to say I’m sorry,” he began. “Andrea, you’re the mother of my children and somebody I’ll always have love and respect for. I retract all my statements about her. She never stole money from me, she never did wrong by me, she never cheated on me. We weren’t together, so right there, she’s not a cheater. She’s a great woman.”

Despite promising change in the coming months, Garcia’s actions speak differently. Just a day after his public apology, he was seen shirtless and partying in Hawaii clubs. This follows a series of antics and smaller headlines that pale in comparison to his more severe controversies. For instance, his recent association with Wiz Khalifa sparked backlash, perceived as a desperate attempt to regain public favor, particularly within the Black community.

Garcia’s reputation took a severe hit following a racist Twitter rant where he used the n-word, mocked George Floyd, disparaged Muslims, and attacked various groups and individuals. These actions led to his expulsion from the World Boxing Council and compounded his suspension for using performance-enhancing drugs. “Exercising my authority as president of the WBC, I am hereby expelling Ryan Garcia from any activity with our organization,” stated Mauricio Sulaiman. “We reject any form of discrimination. I fear for Ryan’s well-being. He has declined multiple attempts for our help with mental health and substance abuse.”

Even his father expressed concern, revealing to Fight Hub TV, “I haven’t spoken to Ryan in a long time. He speaks to his mother more than me. But it’s okay, he’ll call me when he wants to. I would love for him to get some type of therapy when it comes to his drinking. I’m being real. He says he can control it. I hope he can. But if he doesn’t… Get that therapy so he can stop.”

Ryan Garcia’s recent actions cast doubt on his commitment to change, leaving fans and critics alike questioning his sincerity.

Tylo $mith taps into the art of cool on “Sumn Light”

Tylo $mith is not here to scream at you for your attention. Instead, on “Sumn Light,” he slips into your speakers with laconic cool that says a lot without grunting. Taken from his forthcoming project Honor Chords, the song is a somber, mood-heavy cut that bleeds personality, clever bars, and introspective late-night celebration.

Over a hypnotic beat that pulsates like the neon light in the rain, Tylo $mith offers an off-the-cuff performance that seems razor-sharp. There’s a slackness to his delivery, a lanky-boned ease that suggests he’s not trying that hard because he doesn’t need to. He name-drops Christian Bale effortlessly, preens with a Nicki Minaj reference that lands just right, and saunters through verses like he’s talking to himself more than to an audience. But that’s why it resonates. There’s nothing fake here, just vibes and truth.

“Sumn Light” sounds like a confession you catch in freestyle, when the world quiets and honest thoughts creep in. The lyrics bounce between self-aware flexes and coy vulnerability in a balancing act that defines Tylo’s style. It’s not the over-explanation; it’s the space between the words, the sonic coolness, and the honesty cloaked in rhyme.

This song was made to add to your chill rap and vibey hip-hop playlists, but it also thrives on its own, winding its way through your headphones as background noise or front-and-center reflection. The production is minimalist but immersive, leaving space for the depth and texture of Tylo’s voice and pen to sit right in the pocket. He’s not trying to out-rap the beat, and he’s talking to it.

“Sumn Light” is a mood, a feeling, a moment that doesn’t need to scream to be heard. It captures what Honor Chords seems to be about: raw expression, offhand calm, and honesty that catches you unawares.
