Local musician unveils 5th music visual, ‘Sometimes'
Ki was born in Temple, Texas, but raised in Shreveport, Louisiana. He shares 'Sometimes', invites listeners to step into his world—the highs, the lows, and the unrelenting passion that fuels his artistry.
'Sometimes I'm uninspired trying to create something that's supposed to get me out the hood. What word, note, or key would help make this song THE song? After working all day, how can I find the time to create? I'm tired… yet hopeful,' says Kí.
The visual takes viewers inside Edi Kí's daydreams, imagining life as a full-time artist—free from the daily grind of clocking in and out, answering to bosses, and sacrificing creative energy for survival. According to the news release, it's a relatable and a raw look at many independent artists' challenges.

Taylor Swift finally debuts on Travis Kelce's Instagram
Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift have been together for two years, but the couple crossed a major milestone on Thursday. For the first time in their relationship, the 14-time Grammy winner made an appearance on Kelce's Instagram (@killatrav). "Had some adventures this offseason. Kept it 100," the caption of the post read. Kelce posted 13 photos -- a number significant to Swift -- that spanned several events and seasons from the last few months. There are images of Kelce with friends fishing and hiking, pictures with his brother, Jason Kelce, a picture from his Tight End University event, a picture of each of his parents, several images with girlfriend Taylor and many more. It was a lovely look into Kelce's life, highlighting friends and family since the season ended in February. The images also adorably revealed that a photo of the couple is the lock screen on what seems to be both Kelce's and Swift's phones. This isn't the first time that one half of the superstar couple has been featured on the others' social media, however. The Kansas City player was posted to Swift's TikTok account (@taylorswift) back in February of 2024 after the Chiefs won the Super Bowl. NOW it's officially official.

'Not a distraction': North Carolina football players weigh in on Bill Belichick's romance with Jordon Hudson
Bill Bellichick is one of the most accomplished football coaches in history. However, the six-time Super Bowl-winning head coach's achievements have largely taken a backseat to his much-discussed romance with Jordon Hudson. Hudson, Belichick's 24-year-old girlfriend, was accused of attempting to assert her control during the former NFL coach's sit-down with "CBS News Sunday Morning" in late April. The interview was part of a promotional tour for Belichick's new book, "The Art of Winning: Lessons from My Life in Football." Belichick was introduced as the next head coach at North Carolina in December. Tar Heels football players insist the coach's personal life hasn't disrupted the team in any way. Belichick described the increased attention on his personal life as "just noise." "Sometimes it's noisy, and sometimes it isn't," Belichick told ESPN. "Sometimes with the Patriots it was noisy, too." North Carolina wide receiver Jordan Shipp made it clear that any outside "noise" has not negatively affected the team. From Shipp's point of view, Hudson has not been overly involved in Belichick's coaching process. "Social media can promote some narrative, but that was not a distraction to us at all," Shipp said. "There was never a problem, like people saying she was running practice. We'd never really see her in the building. That was never a problem." Shipp also pointed out that former UNC head coach Mack Brown's wife would routinely have breakfast with the receiver at the team's facility. "I don't think Jordon's had lunch with anybody," Belichick quipped. UNC quarterback Gio Lopez also shared his thoughts on the topic, suggesting Hudson is more visible on the internet than she is at the team complex. Lopez also characterized Belichick as a "normal coach." "I log on my phone and see something about coach Belichick, so it is different, of course," Lopez said. "But you'd never think that about him. He's a normal guy, a normal coach. That's how he carries himself. He's very personable, not worried about the spotlight. He just does his job." The Tar Heels finished last season with a 6-6 regular-season record. North Carolina opens the 2025 campaign against TCU Sept. 1. Belichick said the first game of the season is where his focus remains.
