Drake’s ‘One Dance’ breaks billion mark on Spotify

Drake

Drake’s “One Dance” on Friday notched up another record — it is the first song to be played a billion times on Spotify.

The Canadian rapper’s song — which already in October became the most-streamed song ever on Spotify — had been played 1.002 billion times by early Friday.

With a raw funk vibe but minimalist beat, “One Dance” has been in heavy rotation at clubs and parties this year.

The track, which appears on Drake’s top-charting album “Views,” features guest vocals by Wizkid, one of Nigeria’s top singers, and British house artist Kyla.

Drake’s totals on Spotify, the largest site in the fast-growing format of streaming, comes even though he has a business tie-up with Apple.

The tech giant, whose upstart Apple Music is trying to catch up with Spotify, released “Views” exclusively for its first week although individual tracks appeared elsewhere.

Despite Drake’s success, he was surpassed in November for most monthly listeners on Spotify by The Weeknd — a fellow Toronto artist and protege of Drake.

And in a surprise to many music watchers, “One Dance” was not nominated for Record of the Year or Song of the Year at the Grammy Awards although Drake is up in other categories.

Khloe Kardashian opens up about her ‘unhealthy relationship’ with food during marriage to Lamar Odom

Khloe Kardashian opens up about her ‘unhealthy relationship’ with food during marriage to Lamar Odom
By Ifysandy, Chudez

The Keeping Up With The Kardashians star has been honest in the past about how the breakdown of her relationship with ex husband Lamar Odom led to her turning to the gym and transforming her figure.

And now the 32 year old has opened up further about how she discovered, and overcame, her “unhealthy relationship” with food whilst dealing with the traumatic split.

Khloe and Lamar, who recently finalised her divorce, tied the knot in 2009 but split four years later.

Speaking to Health magazine, Khloe admitted that she needed an ”outlet” to help her get through the end of her marriage

She said: ”I was going through my divorce, and I just really needed an outlet.

“I had turned to food and had an unhealthy relationship with food my whole life, and I was like, ‘Food has never helped me lose weight.'”

“No-one would bother me or ask me questions because even at Starbucks, I would get the, ‘I’m sorry…’

“I would watch the ‘Real Housewives’ or something mindless, and I felt like all the stress I was under, all the paparazzi, I blocked out all that noise.

”I escaped there and as a byproduct, I started losing weight.”
Khloe revealed it was then that she got in touch with family friend Gunnar Peterson, a personal trainer, to help her take her fitness to the next level.

“He changed my body,” Khloe admitted.

Though she is often seen working out with her sisters Kourtney and Kim and follows a fairly strict diet, Khloe has admitted that the reason why her regime works is because it’s not always strict.

The Strong Looks Better Naked author told her 58 million Instagram followers: “”I never thought I would EVER be on the cover of @healthmagazine but hard work pays off! Mind, body and soul!

“It’s a lifestyle,” she added, “especially when I still love to treat myself with my favorite foods but that’s the balance of life!”

Elsewhere in the interview, Khloe revealed her family changed their wills to make her their medical advisers after Lamar’s overdose last October.

She also discussed her relationship with new boyfriend, 25-year-old basketball player Tristan Thompson.

Divulging about her type of man she said: “I love athletes. Someone who has the same interests as me, who likes to work out, like that’s their hobby or their job, that’s fine.”

She then adorably added: “Tristan is who I’m into. He’s a little cutie.’

Mkhitaryan Starts For United Against Tottenham

Mkhitaryan Starts For United Against Tottenham

By Chudez

Jose Mourinho has named the same Manchester United team for the second Premier League game in a row for Sunday’s visit of Tottenham Hotspur.

The Portuguese made six changes for Thursday’s 2-0 victory over Zorya Luhansk in the Europa League, but has reverted back to the team which drew 1-1 with Everton for the clash with Mauricio Pochettino’s side.

That means there is no place for either Wayne Rooney, who returns from a domestic suspension, nor Eric Bailly, who played in Odessa in midweek following almost seven weeks out with a knee injury.

Henrikh Mkhitaryan starts for a fourth successive fixture after a string of impressive showings which have seen him become more regularly involved in the United setup.

For the visitors, Toby Alderweireld is back in the starting lineup for the first time since suffering a knee injury in October against West Bromwich Albion, while Harry Kane leads the line against a club he was often linked with before signing a recent new deal at White Hart Lane which will keep him in north London until 2022.

Man Utd: De Gea, Valencia, Jones, Rojo, Darmian, Carrick, Herrera, Mkhitaryan, Pogba, Martial, Ibrahimovic. Subs: Romero, Bailly, Mata, Blind, Rashford, Rooney, Fellaini.

Tottenham: Lloris; Walker, Alderweireld, Vertonghen, Rose; Wanyama, Dembele; Eriksen, Dele, Son; Kane. Subs: Vorm, Nkoudou, Dier, Sissoko, Wimmer, Winks, Davies.

Real Madrid Set New Unbeaten Record...

Real Madrid Set New Unbeaten Record

BY CHUDEZ

Two goals in two minutes from Joselu just after the hour mark looked set to end Real’s unbeaten streak stretching back to April after Alvaro Morata’s opener.

However, even without the rested Cristiano Ronaldo, Real maintained their six-point La Liga lead as Mariano Diaz equalised six minutes from time before Ramos’s late intervention.

Zinedine Zidane’s men have now surpassed Real’s previous record mark of 34 games unbeaten from the 1988/89 season under Dutch coach Leo Beenhakker.
