It's Been Another Crazy Week

Let's start with this bipolar weather that has climbed up to 65 degrees in heavily populated cities like NYC only to then dwindle down to the low thirties the next day. The world of sports, music, and entertainment has seen just as crazy things happen this past week.

NFL

The NFL's Wildcard weekend featured all AFC teams playing on day one and all NFC teams playing on the second day for the first time in as long as most people could remember. Another shocker was the fact that all 4 road teams won the games during Wildcard weekend, which has never happened in the history of the NFL. The frigid temperatures in Minnesota played a huge role in the low scoring game that ended with a score of 10-9 after Blair Walsh botched a 27 yard field goal attempt with 22 seconds that would have put the Vikings ahead by 2. Next week's games will feature the New England Patriots taking on the Kansas City Chiefs and the Denver Broncos against the Pittsburgh Steelers  in the AFC. The NFC will see the GreenBay Packers square off against the Arizona Cardinals and the Carolina Panthers taking on the Seattle Seahawks.

NBA

The NBA is nearing the All Star break which means that already nearly half the NBA season has been played. Stephen Curry and the Warriors have remained a consistent threat to the 95-96 Bull's 72-10 record posting a record of 35-2 to date. Curry has subsequently gained traction in the MVP race with guys such as Kawhi Leonard, LeBron James, and Russell Westbrook. Clipper guard Chris Paul has entered the discussion after helping his team establish a 9 game winning streak in the absence of the team's leading scorer Blake Griffin.

Hip-Hop/R&B

The music world never seems to disappoint and this week was no different. Kanye West debuted his new track Real Friends/No More Parties In LA. The track includes vocals from LA natives Kendrick Lamar and Ty Dolla $Ign. Many are calling this track "vintage" Kanye and the track quickly surpassed 150K plays on the Chicago artist's SoundCloud account. Kanye revealed via his Twitter account that SWISH will be released on February 11.



Lil Durk released the visuals for his hit single "My Beyonce" from his critically acclaimed mixtape "300 days, 300 nights". The video features the Chicago drill artist locking lips with his fellow rapper girlfriend Dej Loaf. Fans were amped to see that the video paid homage to the popular movie Love and Basketball starring Sanaa Lathan and Omar Epps from 2000.  New music is expected soon from artists such as Big Sean, Wiz Khalifa, Beyonce, Rihanna, and Travis Scott.

Boxing

The boxing world has been quite hushed so far this year, however some big name fighters that should be active fairly soon are Canelo Alvarez, Deontay Wilder, Adrien Broner, Danny Garcia, Shawn Porter, Amir Khan, Manny Pacquiao, Gennady Golovkin, Miguel Cotto, and Erislandy Lara.

Extraordinary People

This week has been hectic with me preparing to return to college so there is no highlight person of the week.
