Rapper DaBaby Slaps a Woman at a Party by Talia Criso

-
On March 8, 2020, a video of 28 year old Jonathan Lyndale Kirk, or DaBaby, was released by TMZ. In the video, the rapper can be seen forcefully slapping a woman in the crowd of people at a nightclub in North Tampa. The video is spreading quickly on twitter and other platforms, and DaBaby reputation is getting destroyed. However, DaBaby claims it was because she had hit him in the eye with her phone while trying to get a picture with him. After this, he retaliates by hitting her back, though it´s debatable whether this was a fit punishment

DaBaby posted a video on his Instagram story in response to the situation, claiming he will give $10K to anyone who has a better angle of the incident, where you can see her hit him in the eye. So far there is only 1 video in circulation, where it is unclear to see whether she hit him or not. He posted another video on his Instagram story saying, ¨Who know shawty government name so my lawyer can get active?¨ 

DaBaby just got released from jail in January for punching a music promoter who he claims did not give him the money he said he would. Investigators were told that the rapper also took the victim´s phone, bank card and some cash.

This is a dangerous situation for DaBaby´s career, considering he got boo´d off stage after and did not perform an songs at the after party. This could also result in a major lawsuit, and possible charges. The only thing that could help him in this situation would be for someone to post a video where you can see her hit him in the eye with her phone, so he can claim it was self-defense. Until then, the rapper´s position is on the line.

1. Footage of DaBaby slapping a woman at an after party
2. A clip from DaBaby´s Instagram story, where he offers $10K to anyone with additional footage
3. A clip from DaBaby´s Instagram story, where he asks if anyone knows the woman´s name

Ancient Greek Heroes VS. Modern Day Heroes

-

Heroes in Greek/Anglo-Saxon (I am grouping the types of historical literature we have read) writing are very obvious and much of ancient Greek literature involves a central hero or a supernatural story. In modern day English, however, the plots are less often mythical and more realistic. Since each person has a different definition for heroism, modern day heroism literature can be more varied. Ancient Greek writing is very often far-fetched, however. There are many similarities and differences between the two types of writing, but first I will run through the most significant differences. In Greek mythology, heroes were often religious figures, like demigods, while modern day writing focuses more on ordinary people. This could be because authors nowadays want the readers to be able to relate with the heroes in their stories. Greek writing had heroes that had the power to protect or destroy the people depending on prevailing circumstances. In contrast, modern day heroes are acknowledg...

My Brother by Elizabeth Hailey DeGasperis

          When I contemplate what is most important in my life, my mind is drawn to my 21-year-old brother, Tom. There are not enough words in the English language I could use to describe what he means to me. I cannot imagine the past fifteen years of my life without him. Allow me to start from the beginning.           Even when I was an infant, he never failed to take me out of my crib, strap me in my high chair, and cook scrambled eggs for us (at the tender age of six). He did this so my mother could catch up on sleep in the mornings and take care of me however he could. I only wish I could return the favour in some way. Though we have always been tight, we used to fight frequently as all siblings do. As immature children, we viewed every ordeal as monumental. The apocalypse would occur if either of us decided to give the other access to the TV remote or the pogo sticks for five minutes. However, we would always make-up in the end and...

Not Fate, Just a Coincidence - Sila Paniker

The idea of fate confuses me. I don't really understand how something will happen no matter what you do. It just seems very unlikely. I think we're constantly making choices that lead to occurrences. We make so many decisions a day that it seems impossible that fate can find a way around it all.  Awhile ago, I saw something called the Butterfly Effect, which doesn't exactly relate to fate but it makes sense to me. The idea is that a butterfly flapping its wings can cause a tornado on the other side of the world. Essentially, small changes can have large impacts. In my head, this connects with the thousands of tiny decisions we subconsciously make each day. There are people I've met or things that have happened and it feels like it was meant to be but they're just a bunch of coincidences that had the ability to change everything. Thinking about it, there are reasons that can explain everything. For example, I met one of my closest friends a few years ago a...
