We have tragic news to report from the world of music today.
Grammy-nominated opera singer Jubilant Sykes was found stabbed to death inside his home in Santa Monica on Monday.
He was 71 years old.
Opera singer’s son arrested in connection with his death
Police arrived on the scene after receiving a 911 call from Sykes’ wife shortly after 9 pm on Monday night.
According to Lt. Lewis Gilmour of the Santa Monica Police Department, officers arrived to find Sykes suffering from “significant injuries.”
Members of the Santa Monica Fire Department performed CPR, but the injuries proved too severe.
Sykes was pronounced dead on the scene, and his 31-year-old son, Micah Sykes, was arrested.
“Based on the preliminary investigation, detectives believe this was an isolated incident contained within the household,” Gilmour said, according to the New York Post.
Sykes was nominated for a Best Classical Album Grammy in 2010.
Over the course of his iconic career, he performed at some of the world’s best-known venues, including Carnegie Hall, the Hollywood Bowl, and the Kennedy Center.
A longtime neighbor who was living in a rental property owned by Jubilant alleged that Micah Sykes had a history or erratic behavior.
“It’s just devastating. Unbelievable. Unbelievable. He was a little weird,” the neighbor said of the son, who was living at home with his parents in the years leading up to the alleged attack.
“I had been warned that something like he was on drugs, but it was more like something mentally was not there,” the neighbor added (via the Post).
“He was laying right there on the ground one night, sleeping,” the neighbor continued, indicating the street near Sykes’ home. “Like something — something was not right. But he [Jubliant] even warned me about it.”
Micah Sykes is currently in police custody, but the charges against him have not yet been revealed.
We will have further updates on this developing story as new information becomes available.
Our thoughts go out to Jubilant Sykes’ loved ones during this enormously difficult time.

Was Kim Kardashian wrong to call out Howard Stern?
On last week’s The Kardashians episode, Kim recalled the horrors of her 2016 robbery in Paris.
Emerging from that harrowing ordeal only to have people accuse her of staging a hoax for publicity compounded her trauma.
But her callout of Stern invited a response from the man himself. He says that he didn’t accuse Kim of making things up back then — but it sounds like he sure is now.
Kim Kardashian has a decade-old grudge against Howard Stern
On the Thursday, December 4 episode of The Kardashians on Hulu, viewers got an in-depth look into the infamous 2016 Paris robbery.
Kim Kardashian called out those who had accused the traumatic incident of merely being a hoax — including ex-husband Kanye West and controversial host Howard Stern.
After fearing that she would be raped, murdered, or both, doubts — and sick jokes — on social media cut her to the core.
Obviously, Ye accusing her of faking such a horror for reality television hurt the most. He was, at the time, her husband.
But hearing actual media outlets even entertain the notion sickened Kim.
Because Kim called out the notorious radio host by name, it is only natural that he respond. And he did.
However, Stern did not offer an apology. Nor did he double down on being a Kim robbery “truther.”
(It is an indictment of our culture, one of many, that the term “truther” means someone who espouses lies about historic events)
Instead, Stern argued that he did not, in fact, deny that Kim had been the victim of a horrific robbery.
He said that he simply discussed the horrors, only for him and his co-host to affirm that they believe that it happened. (Stern also cracked an unfortunate joke about the matter)
‘If it is a farce, then really they should go to jail for that’ but ‘I don’t think it is’
Though it is possible that Kim Kardashian has her own clips to play, Howard Stern presented his defense in video form.
“If this woman was robbed at gunpoint by a bunch of dudes and they threw her in a bathtub and tied her up — or whatever they did — I mean, that is frightening,” Stern affirmed in one clip.
He continued: “If it is a farce, then really they should go to jail for that.”
Robin Quivers, his co-host, emphasized: “I don’t think it is.”
Stern agreed, saying: “I don’t either.”
In addition to discussing the people who doubted Kim’s horror story, Stern did crack a joke.
“The one time the Kardashians don’t have a camera, something interesting happens,” he lamented.
Not in good taste.
But also not the worst joke that he could have made about the harrowing ordeal, either.
Even today, Stern contends that what he said at the time was “a fair assessment.” Like so many of us, he was discussing what others had said — not condoning or echoing their claims.
‘You don’t need to make up stuff’
Though he denies claiming that Kim Kardashian pulled a hoax, Howard Stern did acknowledge that he’s said much worse over the years.
“I have said so many awful things in my career,” he admitted.
Stern then added: “You don’t need to make up stuff.”
We would suggest that Kim probably wasn’t manufacturing lines. In the headspace that she must have experienced in 2016, she very likely recoiled at every suggestion that one of the worst moments of her life was fictitious.
That is understandable! Denials and accusations compound trauma.
We do have to wonder if Kim will let the matter drop, or if she plans to hit back with her own clips of Stern’s commentary.

In case you’re blissfully unaware of his existence, Nick Fuentes is a smug far-right troll who basically antagonizes people for a living.
The best thing we can say about him is that he does seem rather passionate about his work, taking obvious satisfaction in trolling even people who mostly agree with his views, like the late Charlie Kirk.
You might think you’ve seen the likes of Nick Fuentes before, as rage-baiting pundit provocateurs have been around for generations.
But this guy is the sort of figure that could only rise to prominence in the era of Trump.
After all, can you imagine Rush Limbaugh or Bill O’Reilly publicly admitting that they’ve never had sex?
Yes, during a new interview with Piers Morgan, Fuentes spewed his usual misogynistic nonsense before admitting that he’s a full-blown virgin.
“Are you actually attracted to women?” Morgan asks in the clip below.
“I am attracted to women,” Fuentes confirmed.
“You’re not gay?” Morgan followed up.
“No, but I will say that women are very difficult to be around, so there’s that,” replied Fuentes.
Morgan then asked if Fuentes believes that women should have the right to vote, and he proudly replied in the negative.
Now, Fuentes is a Holocaust denier and a proud white nationalist, who’s previously made remarks like “a lot of women want to get raped.”
So it’s not surprising that no one wants to have sex with him.
It is, however, somewhat surprising that he’s willing to admit as much on live television.
Of course, Fuentes’ audience is comprised largely of angry incels, so whether it’s the truth or not, claiming to be a 27-year-old virgin might be a sound strategy in terms of strengthening his bond with his audience.
Yes, the people influencing America’s young men are claiming to be neo-Nazi superhumans while also admitting that they’ve never known the touch of a woman.
And it’s possible that they’re lying about clinging to their V-cards, as a clout-accumulating tactic!
We know that pretty much every human being in history has believed that they were living in the weirdest possible times, but folks, you can’t overstate how bizarre this year has been.
