HonkMagazine

Sarunas Jackson, an actor known for his role in the show “Insecure,” is facing serious allegations after his ex-girlfriend, Brittney Bell, accused him of physical abuse. Over the weekend, Brittney shared a video online claiming that Sarunas became aggressive when she confronted him about rumors that he had fathered a child with another woman. This video gained a lot of attention, sparking discussions on social media and prompting Sarunas to deny the accusations firmly. In a statement to a popular news outlet, Sarunas clarified his position with both care and emotion. He said, “No, I did not have a physical altercation with Brittney like it has been described. I have never been violent toward her or any woman in my life.”

He also acknowledged the seriousness of such allegations, especially as a Black man who is quite tall at 6’8″. Sarunas explained that Brittney has a history of being abused and mentioned that he witnessed abuse while growing up. This upbringing gives him a strong sensitivity to the issue, and he emphasizes the harm that false accusations can cause. One important aspect of Sarunas’s response was his focus on being mindful of his acts, particularly during intense moments. He stated, “I have always tried to be careful in how I express myself, especially when emotions run high.”

Public reactions have been mixed. Some people support Sarunas, trusting that he knows how to handle his feelings responsibly, while others back Brittney, stressing that we need to believe women who share their experiences. The situation is still evolving, with no new evidence or legal actions reported. This incident serves as a reminder of how personal matters can become public discussions, especially on social media. While Sarunas maintains his innocence, the public’s opinion remains divided, and the eventual outcome could impact both his reputation and the broader conversation about these important issues.

Gus Ormo finds a gentle balance of sound on latest release “Claroscuro (APAPE)”

Gus Ormo

Gus Ormo‘s latest release, “Claroscuro (APAPE),” is an instrumental piece built from a carefully selected set of sounds. Clean shakers, piano, bass, trumpet, flutes, acoustic guitars, drums, lead guitar, and tambs make up the track. The vocal element is absent from the foreground; the instruments themselves establish the piece’s character.

The arrangement shows the contrast of its different textures. Bass and piano provide the grounding, with trumpet and flutes supplying the melodic color. Congas, drums, and shakers provide percussion, while the acoustic and lead guitars enrich the instrumental palette. These elements are incorporated into the song’s somber mood, but it remains mostly soft and emotion-driven.

What appeals to “Claroscuro (APAPE)” is its dedication to an instrumental expression that is soft on the heart. It’s not the words that convey the mood; it’s the instruments. Gus Ormo combines strings of rhythm, melody, and texture to produce a piece that sounds deliberately restrained, and each section contributes to the overall musical picture.

Gus Ormo brings warmth and tenderness on latest release “Latidos”

Gus Ormo

Gus Ormo’s latest release, “Latidos,” is an instrumental, so it must rely on its musicianship to carry the emotional weight. Instead of a vocal to guide the listener, the arrangement features clean shakers, piano, bass, trumpet, flutes, acoustic guitars, drums, lead guitar, and tambs. The combination is a well-layered musical setting, with a somber character and a soft approach to the heart.

The piano and guitars add important touches to the arrangement, the trumpet and flutes add more color. Percussion, congas, drums, and clean shakers add movement but don’t detract from the gentle nature of the track. The bass anchors the song, while the lead and acoustic guitars provide an additional layer to the instrumental mix.

What sets “Latidos” apart is the quiet emotional intent. Instead of singing of its feeling, the piece creates a solemn and tender atmosphere with its collection of instruments. Still, Gus Ormo’s method stresses the connection between the instruments. It is an instrumental piece that should touch the heart with softness and not in excess.
