F-A-B-O-L-O-U-S is back to incorporating current events into his freestyles. This time, he managed to incorporate OG Anunoby’s historic game-winner into a “Spend Dat” (Knicksmix).

Earlier this month, artist and content creator Lowkey Mar posted a video of him previewing a Knicks-themed flip he made of Yung Miami‘s viral “Spend Dat” (currently on No. 47 on the Billboard Hot 100 and climbing) as the team was in the midst of a historic playoff run that culminated in their first championship in 53 years. Mar starts his version off by pointing out that the Knicks have a player “named Karl-Anthony Towns in ‘the towns’” and “Jalen BrunSON, come on, son,” and flipped Yung Miami’s chorus from “Spend dat sh–” to “Win dat chip.”

The post was shared and reposted by Knicks fans and eventually made its way to Brooklyn rapper Fabolous, who then posted a snippet of his verse on Saturday as the Knicks were getting ready to play Game 5 of the NBA Finals on the road in San Antonio.

Fab impressively incorporated the starting five in Jalen Brunson, Josh Hart, Mikal Bridges, OG Anunoby and Karl-Anthony Towns with lines like, “OK, you know I got the towns on my back like KAT/ You know we keep that paper comin’ thru like fax/ We the ones like Jalen Brunson in that bag for them rings like we eating Funyuns/ Shorty you my heart like Josh, stop trippin’/ Bring that ass here and let an OG put the tip in.” He also managed to show love all five boroughs with bars like, “You know we f— with bridges like Brooklyn and Manhattan/ Third Ave to the BX/ Verrazano go to Staten/ Big Queens, Triboro/ We hit all five boroughs/ Big step through the city, it’s an NY euro.”

Let’s see if this version will ever make it on streaming in time for the Knicks championship parade this upcoming Thursday (June 18).

At the Braves Country Fest in Atlanta over the weekend, country music audiences got a treat when two of the genre’s biggest stars teamed up for a surprise collab.

Cody Johnson and Ella Langley surprised fans Saturday with a duet version of Reba McEntire’s “Whoever’s in New England” during Johnson’s set. Johnson has a history with the McEntire classic: He previously recorded an acoustic version of the song in 2020, while McEntire herself joined Johnson to sing the song during his set at CMA Fest in 2023.

“Whoever’s in New England” is the title track from McEntire’s 1986 album and reached No. 1 on Billboard‘s Hot Country Songs chart. The song also earned McEntire a Grammy for female country vocal performance. “Whoever’s in New England” also earned CMA nominations for single of the year and music video of the year (Jon Small directed the clip).

Both Johnson and Langley are at the top of their games. Johnson was named entertainer of the year at the recent Academy of Country Music Awards (in addition to winning male artist of the year). His song “The Fall” recently rose to No. 1 on Billboard‘s Country Airplay chart, marking his third No. 1 on that chart. Johnson also previously collaborated with McEntire on the song “Dear Rodeo.”

Meanwhile, Langley’s hit “Choosin’ Texas” just keeps breaking chart records. The song logged 10 weeks atop the all-genre Billboard Hot 100 and set a new Hot Country Songs chart record for longest-leading hit by a woman with no other credited recording artists since the survey became the genre’s main songs chart in 1958. At this year’s ACM Awards, Langley earned honors for female artist of the year, artist-songwriter of the year, song of the year and single of the year (both for “Choosin’ Texas”), as well as music event of the year (“Don’t Mind If I Do” with Riley Green).

In addition to Langley and Johnson, Braves Country Fest also featured sets from Ernest, Mackenzie Carpenter, Scoot Teasley, Zach John King and Colton Bowlin. The fest benefited the Atlanta Braves Foundation.
