Original Pinoy Music, also known as OPM, takes pride in artists that write their own music, bands, and its hugot culture. But since then, P-pop emerged as an OPM sub-genre that is carving out its own niche in the domestic and international markets. P-pop is noted for taking the best of K-pop, J-pop, and Western Pop, along with the country's signature flair for capturing emotions and taking catchy lyrics and popular beats into account — which sets it apart from its counterparts. It is also used to describe the recent wave of idol groups and soloists, as well as dance pop-themed songs taking center stage, which can be seen in hit songs 'Tala' and 'Amakabogera.

Philadelphia 76ers guard James Harden was ejected with 13.6 seconds remaining in the third quarter for committing a flagrant 2 foul on Brooklyn Nets forward Royce O'Neale on Thursday in Game 3 of an Eastern Conference first-round playoff series in New York. Harden was originally called for an offensive foul when he elbowed O'Neale to the floor just before the paint along the left side near Brooklyn's bench. After officials reviewed the play, Harden was ejected when the call was upgraded. The 76ers beat the Nets 102-97 to get a commanding 3-0 lead in the playoffs series.

From a championship standpoint, it was a down year in Kingfisher County. The 2022-23 basketball season has come and gone. Fourteen teams (seven girls, seven boys) raised gold balls at center court of either State Fair Arena or Lloyd Noble Center. For the first time since 2018, none of them resided in Kingfisher County. It's just the sixth time beginning with the 2000 state championships that no county team has won a title. Eighteen years with at least one. Only six without. Yeah, we're spoiled here.
