Lil Yachty apologizes to Stephen Jackson over 'demeaning' George Floyd lyric
Stephen Jackson and Lil Yachty are seemingly on good terms after the former NBA star called out the rapper for mentioning the late George Floyd in an unreleased track. Lil Yachty, whose real name is Miles McCollum, shared a snippet of a track during a recent Twitch livestream, according to Rolling Stone and Billboard. The song reportedly featured a lyric about Floyd, a 46-year-old black man who died in May 2020 after a white Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin knelt on his head and neck for nearly 10 minutes while arresting him. 'Put my knee up on her neck, I went George Floyd,' Yachty rapped on the song, per Billboard. Jackson condemned the 'One Night' rapper in a now-deleted Instagram post, calling the lyric 'demeaning' and writing, 'Don't ever say his name, bro. None of y'all knew G. Nothing about him.' The San Antonio Spurs alum has long been open about the loss of his friend Floyd, revealing in 2020 that the pair grew up in the same Houston, Texas neighborhood. USA TODAY has reached out to Lil Yachty's representatives for comment. Jackson says Yachty apologized for distasteful lyric In an Aug. 14 Instagram story, the 'All the Smoke' podcast host later revealed that he is no longer upset with Yachty after the musician reached out and apologized. 'I took my post down about Yachty because I'm emotional about George. I apologized to him. We spoke and he apologized as well,' Jackson said. 'I salute him. Not a lot of people like to own up to when they [expletive] up.' Jackson added that he agreed a public apology was unnecessary after the two worked things out, and as Yachty understands the frustration caused by the lyrics. He added that he never had an issue with Yachty directly, but rather the idea of it being okay for people to demean the dead. He later added in an Aug. 15 Instagram post that he won't be discussing the situation in interviews, adding that 'he's a smart young man' and 'We move on from it.'

Every Free Battlefield 6 Open Beta Reward You Can Earn Before Launch
The Battlefield 6 open beta has taken the gaming world by storm, as hundreds of thousands of players have queued up to trade lead, blow up buildings and rack up crazy killstreaks. The final beta period is in full swing: It began on Thursday, Aug. 14 and goes through Sunday, Aug. 17, so you'll want to join the playtest now if you want to experience the next era of Battlefield chaos before the full release on Oct. 10. Familiar maps and modes are making a return, as players play tug-of-war in Rush sectors and capture flags in Conquest -- this weekend, you can even battle across the wartorn streets of New York City with a new map pool update. If you join the playtest now, you'll have a chance to earn exclusive rewards that won't be available to players that didn't join the open beta. There are a number of challenges to complete and some of them require a substantial time investment, so the sooner you get started, the better. Here are the free cosmetic rewards attached to the Battlefield 6 open beta. Clear tight angles in close-quarters combat for special rewards in class-based challenges. Battlefield Studios/Screenshot by CNET Every open beta weekend one challenge reward When the Battlefield 6 open beta first launched on Aug. 9, players got their first chance at earning exclusive cosmetics that will be added to their accounts when the game fully releases on Oct. 10. If you missed the first open beta weekend, you're in luck: The first set of challenges are still available during the current open beta period, so you still have time to earn these rewards before they disappear forever. Here are all of the cosmetic rewards introduced during Battlefield 6's first open beta period, as well as the challenges you need to complete in order to unlock them. Lights Out Player Card Background: Reach career rank 10. Rising Star Character Skin: Reach career rank 15. Night Terror Weapon Charm: Reach career rank 20. Striking Distance Weapon Package: Get 50 kills on enemies within 10 meters of you while using the Assault class. Regularly using the M87A1 shotgun gadget is a great way to complete this challenge. I Own The Night Weapon Sticker: Get 100 revives while using the Support class. Revives using the new drag feature and the classic defibrillator pads both count toward this challenge. Note that reviving your squadmates while playing a non-Support class does not count toward this challenge. After Dark Weapon Sticker: Repair 3,000 vehicle health while using the Engineer class. Vehicles are only available on large-scale game modes like Conquest, so use custom search filters to find matches that will allow you to complete this challenge. Seeker Character Skin: Spot 300 enemies while using the Recon class. Aiming down sights at enemy players automatically marks them while using this class. While you can spot enemies with any class, only enemies spotted while playing Recon will count toward this challenge. Overpower enemy positions and take ground to unlock the weekend two beta rewards. Battlefield Studios/Screenshot by CNET New open beta challenge rewards The fight rages on during Battlefield 6's second open beta period. If you haven't jumped into combat just yet, you have until Sunday, Aug. 17 to try out the new massive multiplayer first-person shooter. During this period, you can still access the challenges from the first open beta. But the second Battlefield 6 open beta weekend also introduces three more challenges with their own cosmetic rewards, so there's something for returning players to strive toward as well. Here are the new cosmetic rewards introduced during Battlefield 6's second open beta period, as well as the challenges you need to complete in order to unlock them. Bat Company Dog Tag: Get 200 kills or assists. This challenge is not locked to any class or game mode. Dominion Weapon Package: Capture 15 sectors in the Rush or Breakthrough game modes. War Machine Vehicle Skin: Capture 42 flags in the Conquest, Breakthrough, Domination and King of the Hill game modes. Player skins are grounded and realistic in Battlefield 6 -- that includes the beta's associated cosmetic rewards. Battlefield Studios/Screenshot by CNET Exclusive PlayStation beta goodies are available If you're accessing the Battlefield 6 open beta on your PlayStation 5, you're in luck. So long as you're a PS Plus subscriber (which you need to be in order to access the Battlefield 6 open beta in the first place), you'll instantly become eligible for a double XP boost and an exclusive operator skin. These bonuses are automatically applied to your account, so you don't have to worry about browsing the storefront for a free DLC claim. The double XP will only affect your earn rate during the open beta, but that might be just the push you need to complete the challenges to hit career ranks 10, 15 and 20, respectively. If you don't see the soldier skin, there's nothing to worry about: Like all the other Battlefield 6 open beta cosmetic rewards, it will be applied to your account on Oct. 10 when the game fully releases. Don't have time to play the Battlefield 6 open beta, but you still want to know what the game is all about? CNET has you covered with a hands-on preview that explores how the game is returning to the series' roots.
