Throwing it back to my first trip to the iconic Madison Square Garden in 2023! Got to watch the Knicks take on my Milwaukee Bucks in an unforgettable matchup. The energy in the Garden was electric, and seeing my team play on such a legendary court was a bucket list moment. Here’s to epic games, unforgettable memories, and more adventures ahead! #MSG #KnicksVsBucks #TBT #Basketball

Replying to @Brian G Drake didn’t sue the guy who torched him on a record, he sued the record label who had the audacity to let it be released! The nerve of them! 😂 It’s literally a “he said some mean stuff and I don’t like it” lawsuit. He’s the Deontay Wilder of hip hop. Got mopped and blamed it on his warm up clothes. #drake #kendricklamar

Replying to @Explain_this1 You can’t just hop on the team bus and act like you’re about to hit a game-winner. #secondhandembarrassment

Replying to @𝑴 𝑨 𝑳 𝑪 𝑶 𝑵 𝑻 𝑬 𝑵 𝑻 Ok Opie, what’s that date say? Bold of you to make that claim while clearly dodging the news like it’s a bill collector. Next time, maybe double-check before stepping into the comment section with that confidence. #StayInformed #NotTheBreakingNewsYouThought

This has to be the SOFTEST thing I’ve ever seen! Drake filing a defamation suit over Kendrick’s song is giving ‘You’re ruining my reputation and I will NOT stand for it!’ energy. Imagine being that sassy while still dropping subliminals in your own songs. Certified Lover Boy turned Certified Lawsuit Boy. #Drake #KendrickLamar #DefamationDrama #CertifiedLawsuitBoy #HipHopTea #MusicBeef #PettyEnergy #notlikeus

The way some folks look at minorities in the workplace as if we’re just DEI hires reminds me of how Remy stared at his classmates in Higher Learning. Suspicion, resentment, and the assumption that we don’t belong. But just like in that film, the real issue isn’t ‘diversity hires’ it’s the bias that refuses to see us as qualified, capable, and deserving. #HigherLearning #DEI #WeBelong

Me: Mourns TikTok after the Jan 19 shutdown and deletes it not know the App Store also removed it. Plot twist. But we back! #TikTokResurrection #TheyTriedToStopUs #ButWeBack #ForYouPageCalling

Out-of-town friends: “Omg, we have to eat at this place! I saw it on [insert reality show]!” Me: “You sure? The appetizers alone cost more than your flight.” Them (after seeing the menu): “Wait… $28 for fries???” Welcome to LA, where the food is good, but the bill hits like an unexpected plot twist. #WelcomeToLA #StickerShock #LAPrices #RealityCheck #$28Fries #ShouldaGoneToInNOut #onthisday

Replying to @Romanbp24 Remember that time Drake tried to get into a party, and the guy at VIP hit him with a ‘Who invited you?’ Clout doesn’t always open every door! Give that dude a raise! #Humbled #Drake #EvenDrake
