Arkansas Juneteenth Soul Food Event Cancelled After Featured Hosts Were All White People
HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Twitter / Twitter First, let’s just acknowledge the fact that Black people were pretty much split in our reactions to Juneteenth becoming an official federal holiday last year. While many of us were excited that this thing that had been part of the culture for decades had finally been recognized nationally for the first time, there were those of us who were immediately reminded of what happens to culturally Black things once they’re Columbused by the white majority—those culturally Black things get swept up swiftly into the “it’s all of our culture now, we’ll just keep it at my house” world of whiteness. (See Black slang, Black vernacular, Tik Tok dances, virtually every popular American music genre and, currently, the word “woke.”) That second set of Bla...
Lamar Odom Got A Tattoo of Kobe Bryant On His Neck
HipHopWired Featured Video Source: MediaNews Group/Pasadena Star-News via Getty Images / Getty Most basketball fans are aware that Lamar Odom’s road to recovery hasn’t only been a rocky one, but it’s often times seemed an impossible one. After being surprisingly traded away from his beloved Los Angeles Lakers in 2011, the NBA Champion’s life infamously spun out of control to the point where he almost lost his life in a brothel in 2015 (Kardashian Kurse?). Since then he’s been slowly piecing back together his health and his life, and has had a reoccurring role on Celebrity Big Brother where a few weeks ago he teased a “mentality” tattoo that left many wondering what he would have painted on his person. Well, mystery solved as Page Six is reporting that Lo went and got himself a ta...

HipHopWired Featured Video Source: @mellowrackz / Instagram Rapper Mellow Rackz was the center of heavy buzz after revealing that she was allegedly the victim of a robbery which resulted in her being pistol-whipped – and claiming it was her own security behind the deed.

Netlfix Lays Off Mostly Black Editorial Staff From Fan Site Most People Didn’t Know Exist
HipHopWired Featured Video Source: CHARLY TRIBALLEAU / Getty Netflix is not having a great year, and this latest news doesn’t have the streaming service in the most favorable light. For those who didn’t know Netflix launched a website in December called Tudum (a play on the popular opening sound) that featured news, interviews, and other fan content created around the service and what it offers.

Don C on Basketball Culture, Fashion and the Influence of ‘NBA 2K’ on Both
The influence of basketball culture on designer and Just Don founder Don C‘s creative pursuits is as strong as his roots in his native Chicago. While that connection is obvious in roles like serving as Creative Strategy and Design Advisor for the Chicago Bulls, it also comes through in NBA 2K22, in which his real life designs are available to wear in the virtual world. “Pretty much everything I do is inspired by basketball culture,” says Don. Like the game itself, he’s a true force operating at the intersection of sports and style. With the release of NBA 2K22, Don C reflects on his relationship with basketball and fashion, and the inseparable dynamic of both in pop culture — a phenomenon that the NBA 2K franchise has tapped into since its inception. Since the late-‘90s, the many iteration...

Sony Will Reportedly Handle Creating PlayStation Plus Game Demos Itself
Earlier this week, it was reported that Sony had requested that developers create time-limited demos for its revamped PlayStation Plus service. Launching on June 13, the Game Pass alternative will already offer top-tier subscribers more than 700 titles, but it seems that Sony wanted to entice new subscribers with longer, exclusive demos. Per this policy, Sony asked developers to release free demos for games that cost over $34 USD. The company shared the news through its internal developer portal, but not as an official announcement to third-party partners, Kotaku reported. The demos would have to be at least two-hours long, shared within three months of the game’s launch, and available to players for at least a year. Now, it appears that Sony will shoulder the work of creating the demos, u...
