New York City continues to be a hotspot for up-and-coming talent. Artists such as Laila, MIKE, Hurri Harran, Lexa Gates, Yaya Bey, and more have shown that the city is still a melting pot of hot, dope music.

Why Zohran Mamdani Will Be a Great Mayor
Let’s be real … the final results of the New York City mayoral race were not a shocker. Between Andrew Cuomo and Zohran Mamdani, the latter knocked it out of the park with better marketing and a clear vision. Cuomo has a history of controversies, most notably the sexual harassment allegation that led to his […]
How Lorde Brings a New Light to Virgin
Over the last year, it’s no secret that the music world is craving a new Lorde album. The last time we heard from the Queen of Alternative was in 2021, the weed and maori language themed “Solar Power”. The New Zealand songstress did go on to do a tour between Fall 2021-Spring 2022. Aside from […]
Why the OKC Thunder deserve credit for the championship
In typical heartbreaking fashion, the Indiana Pacers lost to the Oklahoma City Thunder in seven games. The defeat was caused by the Achilles tear injury of number one option, Tyrese Haliburton. His production early in the game was an offensive clip — nine points and going 60% in field goal shooting percentages. The National Basketball […]
Why More Movies Should Let the Villain Win
I must admit — I can’t stand how a lot of movies always have the usual good guy protagonist defeating the antagonist. This is unrelated to the phenomenon of morally grey anti-heroes and villains taking the spotlight. “The Joker” films are a recent example of this — considering how they attempt to humanize the iconic, […]
BSE Global Understands the Assignment

The Knicks Coaching Search Is Shameless
Shame. Shame. Shame — that’s all I have to say about the New York Knick’s direction after firing Tom Thibodeau. His coaching tenure from 2020-2025 led to a revival of the troubled franchise. A successful regular season record, Four playoff appearances, an Eastern Conference Finals appearance after 25 years — a winning culture. As the […]
Why The Nets Would Want Giannis Antetokounmpo
Since I was an embryo—I have always been a Nets fan. From the Jersey days of Jason Kidd leading them to finals to the now Brooklyn Barclay Center liveliness. I have no fear of representing black and white—even if my home state has shown allegiance to the sports culture of Philly and New York. However, […]
Knicks Should Not Have Fired Thibodeau
The tale of the 2024-25 New York Knicks playoff run can be summarized by a Charles Dickens quote, “It was the best of times — it was the worst of times.” The good moments came with the defeat of the Cade Cunningham-led Pistons and the usurpation of the then-reigning champion Boston Celtics. The latter brought […]
One Piece Season 2 Looks Engaging
Netflix’s live-action adaptation of “One Piece” was faithful and accessible. You would think that Eiichiro Oda’s long-running series would have a hard time translating into the silver screen—but thanks to the love and care put forth by the production team. The “One Piece” experience—previously an anime/manga about a young pirate’s ambition to be the top […]
Knicks Shouldn’t Be Counted Out
Game Fives are historically do-or-die games. A team that is usually in the lead is expected to close out the series. However, the Indiana Pacers apparently were not attuned as the New York Knicks were able to dominate the game—forcing a Game Six. The Knicks matched and adjusted toward the Pacers fast-paced game plan. To […]
