Excision has revealed that his dog, Rex, passed away at 15 years old at the time that he was unveiling his new stage The Evolution at Thunderdome in January. Today would have been Rex’s 16th birthday.
It was also revealed that the pup inspired the name Excision in the first place, a name that has been with the producer for 12 years now.
RIP Rex.
Today would’ve been Rex’s 16th birthday. He was with our family from the very beginning of my journey in music & inspired the name Excision. He would be proud that even though we couldn’t be together in his final moments, we had 15k Headbangers at Thunderdome cheering us on. pic.twitter.com/8ISEe38nKj
Pop Smoke’s anticipated posthumous debut album arrived last week. Shoot For The Stars, Aim For The Moon didn’t disappoint, either. Stacked with star-studded appearances from 50 Cent, Roddy Ricch, Quavo, and more, Pop’s debut album gave fans a glimpse of what would’ve been his transition from bubbling artist to bonafide star. And if numbers indicate anything, it would only validate his star power.
Hits Daily Double reports that the sales projections for Shoot For The Stars have spiked from the initial prediction of 175K-195K units. Their latest update projects that the album could be 210-230k with 45-55k coming from pure album sales. The project is on pace to be one of the top 10 biggest debuts of the year, along with Eminem’s Music To Be Murdered By and Lil Uzi Vert’s Eternal Atake.
Breonna Taylor’s family has filed new court documents claiming that the 26-year-old EMT was still alive after she was shot by Louisville police officers, but she did not receive any medical assistance as she bled out in her apartment. The New York Times reports that the 31-page complaint indicates that Breonna lay dying for up to six minutes after she was shot in the early hours of March 13th.
These new court documents serve to amend a lawsuit against the three officers, Jonathan Mattingly, Myles Cosgrove, and the since-fired Brett Hankison, involved in her death, and presents a new narrative on what exactly transpired the night that they killed Breonna. While both sides have settled on the fact that they did, in fact, knock before entering her apartment, they disagree on whether or not the officers identified themselves, with Breonna’s family claiming they did not. This is what led Breonna’s boyfriend Kenneth Walker to shoot at the presumed intruders, hitting one of the officers in the leg. They responded by firing shot after shot, hitting Breonna five times.
