Jake Paul On Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. Fight
"Five years ago, I stepped into the ring for my pro debut after a single amateur fight, and every fight since has been a step towards becoming world champion.

Lil Wayne's 15-Year-Old Son Scores His First Chart Hit
Lil Wayne debuts 17 tracks from Tha Carter VI on Billboard's Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart, including ... More a father-son collab with Kameron Carter titled "Rari." DALLAS, TEXAS - MAY 26: Lil Wayne performs onstage during Night 2 of the TwoGether Land Music Festival at Fair Park on May 26, 2024 in Dallas, Texas. (Photo by) Lil Wayne is having another big week on the charts in the United States. His new album Tha Carter VI, debuts at No. 1 on a number of Billboard rankings, and he invades several of the hip-hop and rap-focused tallies with multiple tracks from the full-length. This is not an unusual performance for one of the biggest stars to ever rap, but this latest slew of smashers may be special to the Grammy winner, as he's made his newest effort a family affair. Kameron Carter Scores His First Billboard Hit Kameron Carter, Wayne's son, earns what appears to be his first Billboard hit this week. The 15-year-old, whose mother is actress Lauren London, collaborates with his father on the track 'Rari.' The Tha Carter VI album cut opens at No. 47 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart, which ranks the most consumed tunes in those styles across the U.S., blending sales and streaming data as well as radio airplay. Lil Wayne Floods the Charts With Tha Carter VI Carter may only be credited on one track, but Wayne lands 17 new hits on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart this week, all taken from Tha Carter VI. The rapper didn't push any singles from the full-length before dropping the project in full, so excitement around these tunes is especially high at the moment. Lil Wayne Extends His Impressive Chart History Throughout his career, Wayne has collected an incredible 234 hits on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart. Included in that massive number are 53 top 10s — a figure he adds to with just one track this frame, as the aptly titled 'Hip-Hop,' a collaboration with BigXthaPlug and Jay Jones, opens at No. 8. He's also landed an even dozen champions thus far.

Duke's Khaman Maluach, Maryland's Derik Queen headline list of big men in upcoming NBA draft
Duke's Khaman Maluach anchored the interior for an elite defensive team that reached the Final Four.
