Real Madrid fell 1-0 at home to Getafe on Monday, their second straight La Liga defeat, thanks to Martín Satriano's first-half volley.

On the Mohr Stories podcast on Feb. 24, Dyson accused Lamar of reducing Black identity to Compton origins, comparing the track's 'not like us' hook to divisive rhetoric and noting Drake's Black heritage tied to figures like Aretha Franklin's babysitter.
