tmp09be229d-b63b-44d5-941f-afc89ddb8d5c-jpg

Morgan Wallen has released three new tracks, “Somebody’s Problem,” “Still Goin’ Down,” and “Livin’ the Dream,” ahead of his upcoming double album, Dangerous: The Double Album, set for release on January 8, 2021. The collection will offer 30 songs, with two additional songs on a Target edition.

In a statement last week, Wallen said, “The ’double album’ idea started off as just a joke between me and my manager because we had accumulated so many songs over the past couple of years. Then quarantine hit, and we realized it might actually be possible to have enough time to make it happen. I also ended up writing quite a few more songs during the quarantine with some of my good buddies.”

You can take a listen to “Somebody’s Problem,” Still Goin’ Down,” and “Livin’ the Dream,” at the audio links on YouTube referenced above.

Filming To Begin On ‘Black Panther 2’ To Begin in July 2021

tmp6ffc23ab-c5e9-49be-bc99-c7d59bae818e-jpg

The sequel to the Marvel film Black Panther will begin filming in Atlanta next July. The sequel was temporarily put on hold after the death of Chadwick Boseman, who played the titular superhero. According to The Hollywood Reporter, initially the plan was to start production in March 2021.

Actor Tenoch Huerta is in talks to play one of the antagonists. Letitia Wright, Lupita Nyong’o, Winston Duke and Angela Bassett are expected to return for the next chapter, with many hinting that Wright’s character Shuri may take on a more prominent role.

There has been no update yet on who might take over late Boseman’s role and neither has the studio revealed its plans on how they will proceed without Boseman, although they have indicated that they will not use CGI to include the late star in the film. Boseman portrayed Black Panther and his alter ego, T’Challa, in the 2018 film. He was diagnosed with stage III colon cancer in 2016 and in August, the actor died at home in Los Angeles, with his wife and family members by his side.

tmp80377e23-3fde-4a45-b250-c78040f0122c-jpg

Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson and Mary J. Blige are teaming to produce a comedy for ABC. The two artists also collaborate on Starz’s Power Book II: Ghost and will be the team behind Family Affair, about a musician who’s suddenly put into a parental role. The network has committed to a pilot for the single-camera show from ABC Signature and writers Devon and Ranada Shepard.

Family Affair is the second project at ABC helmed by Jackson, who’s also an executive producer of the network’s drama For Life.  The new show will center on A-ron, a faded R&B star whose bachelor life is upended when he’s saddled with raising his sister’s four children. Feeling overwhelmed, A-ron soon discovers that musical talent runs in the family and takes on the challenges of both managing a music group and raising a family.

Teenager Arrested in Wisconsin Mall Shooting That Injured Eight

tmpf581049a-483c-420d-bb51-b0db1a0d5e6a-jpg

Authorities said on Sunday that a 15-year-old boy has been arrested in a shooting that left eight people injured at a Wisconsin mall. Wauwatosa Police Chief Barry Weber said in a news conference that the teenager was arrested Saturday night with a gun allegedly used in the shooting. Weber did not identify the teen. A spokeswoman for the police department also said that several other people were arrested in connection with the shooting, but did not provide details.

Authorities said the shooting followed an altercation between two groups at the Mayfair Mall in Wauwatosa, outside Milwaukee, on Friday afternoon. Among the wounded was a teenager, but authorities said they could not confirm if it was the suspected shooter.

Police say the shooter fled the mall as tactical teams cleared the space of patrons and worked to contain its 1.2 million square feet, a process that took several hours.

tmp9af1a21b-7d66-4d3f-b8bf-1af28c650eb7-jpg

Two people were killed and two were injured after a shooting at a Bellevue, Nebraska, Sonic Drive-In over the weekend. Officers received a call on Saturday evening of a possible bomb inside a truck at the restaurant, police said in a press release. When police responded, they found the four gunshot wound victims, according to a statement released by the City of Bellevue Police Department.

Two victims were pronounced dead at the scene. Two others were taken to University of Nebraska Medical Center for treatment. Their conditions are unknown. The suspect, Roberto Carlos Silva Jr., 23, was arrested and booked at the Sarpy County Jail for two counts of first degree murder and one count of arson, according to a City of Bellevue Police Department press release. Silva was accused of identity theft last Wednesday after ordering food from the Sonic app.  At that time, Silva was arrested on suspicion of identity theft, and three firearms were discovered at the time. It was not immediately clear if those firearms were returned to Silva or if those firearms were the ones used in the shooting on Saturday.

The four victims have not been identified yet, pending family notification. Police said there was no additional information to release at this time. An investigation into the shooting is ongoing, according to officials.
