Newly released song depicts world visiting Kansas City for historic summer
KANSAS CITY, Mo. (KCTV) – One creator has written an anthem for Kansas City to reflect the metro’s historic summer for years to come.
An Omaha-based Afrobeat artist, Kusher Snazzy, released a World Cup song, ‘KC to the World,’ celebrating the tournament’s culture and diversity.
The song features soccer players and dancers representing multiple nations that played in the World Cup, including Germany, Brazil, Mexico, the United States and Italy. It was filmed locally in multiple locations, including a metro studio and rooftop.

Kusher Snazzy’s goal with the song was to depict the once-in-a-lifetime summer. His passion for soccer and the Midwest inspired the lyrics.
“We don’t know when FIFA is going to choose KC again,” said Kusher.
Joseph Termini is the mastermind behind the project. He took a vision and made it come to life. As a Kansas City native, he knew the importance of showcasing his city positively through a music video.
“Kansas City has been under the radar, and I feel like this is the first time we’re being put on a pedestal, and that pedestal is allowing other people to realize that this is more than just a small-town city,” said Termini.
Listeners can find the hit song on YouTube.

Man charged in Aug. 1 fatal shooting of woman in Kansas City, Missouri
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Jackson County prosecutors charged a man with second-degree murder and other charges in an Aug. 1 shooting death of a woman in Kansas City, Missouri.
Antwon Shirley, 43, also faces charges of armed criminal action, first-degree burglary, unlawful possession of a firearm and two counts of endangering the welfare of a child.
Officers were called to a residence around 6:50 a.m. Aug. 1 on a reported shooting in the 5600 block of Agnes Avenue.
They found a juvenile outside the house and the front door wide open, according to a court document.
The victim, Nevada Mosley, 38, was found in a back bedroom with a gunshot wound. Moseley died later at the hospital.
Three juveniles were also found inside the residence.
A witness told police that Shirley had taken the victim’s cellphone on July 30 and returned it and her house keys that night. The witness said Shirley returned around 2 or 3 a.m. asking to be let in. The witness was later awoken by someone telling him the victim had been shot, per a court document.
Shirley avoided police capture the day of the shooting.
He surrendered to officers Aug. 2 at the Kansas City, Missouri, Police Department’s East Patrol Division.
He is being held in the Jackson County Jail on a bond of $500,000, cash-only.
Shirley has a court appearance on Sept. 2.

What to know about MLB’s ABS robot umpire strike zone system
MLB launches ABS challenge system as players test robot umpire calls in a groundbreaking season.
It’s the home stretch of the 2026 MLB season with teams jockeying for playoff position in hopes for lengthy postseason runs.
Los Angeles Dodgers two-way superstar Shohei Ohtani continues his quest for an NL MVP three-peat, but sluggers Juan Soto and James Wood are also compiling impressive campaigns.
The Dodgers once again look like the team to beat in the National League, having already amassed a double-digit games lead in the NL West. Meanwhile, the American League features astonishing parity; just one-third of the league had a winning record coming out of the All-Star Break, and no team had a division lead greater than three games.
Some standings surprises include the Toronto Blue Jays and New York Mets, both of whom occupied the basement of their respective divisions despite lofty expectations. Conversely, the Chicago White Sox have flipped the script on their recent run of malaise and are in a prime position to claim a postseason spot in 2026.
