New Footage Casts Doubt on DaBaby’s Self-Defense Claim in Deadly 2018 Walmart Shooting
Just months before signing to Interscope Records, now-embattled rapper DaBaby (born Jonathan Kirk) shot and killed a man named Jaylin Craig at a Charlotte-area Walmart in November 2018. Kirk claimed he was acting in self-defense, and proceeded to reference the shooting in many of his songs. New security footage obtained by Rolling Stone, however, casts a different light on the incident, appearing to show Kirk initiated the fight that led to the shooting. In the footage, Kirk enters the frame while sucker-punching Craig’s friend Henry Douglas. After the initial attack, Craig appears to reach for a gun in his waistband, but it’s unclear whether or not he put it back based on a subsequent angle of the altercation. The remaining footage shows Kirk pulling out his own gun before shooting and ki...
beabadoobee Shares Dreamy New Single “See you Soon”: Stream
beabadoobee has returned today with the dreamy new single “See you Soon,” the latest preview of our 2021 Rookie of the Year’s forthcoming sophomore album, Beatopia. The artist otherwise known as Bea Kristi was inspired to write “See you Soon” after a particularly enlightening trip on shrooms. The song is a dose of utopian dreampop that embodies the refreshing epiphany of realizing that it’s okay to make mistakes, as long as you grow and learn from the outcome. “This song is about a really personal time in my life where I had to spend some time by myself to realize a lot of things and it’s one of the dearest songs that I’ve written,” Bea said in a recent episode of Apple Music’s The Zane Lowe Show. “It’s got this uplifting feeling and shows another side of what I do.” Advertiseme...

Potential Reveal Date for ‘Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2’ Leaks
After reviving the Modern Warfare franchise back in 2019, Call of Duty fans have since been anticipating a sequel, and now a potential reveal date has finally leaked for Activision‘s Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. According to Call of Duty insider @TheGhostofHope over on Twitter, the studio will be revealing the new game on May 30, although his tweet simply included the date and a GIF of Captain Price in the dark woods with his night-vision goggles on without elaborating further on where he came across that date, what exactly the game will look like and when it’ll ultimately be released. Despite the lack of more context, the new leak corroborates prior suggestions from fellow insider Tom Henderson, who claimed at the end of April that the reveal would come at the end o...
‘Skate 4’ Leak Suggests Players Can Build Custom Skateparks Online Together
New Skate 4 leaks now suggest that players will be able to build custom skateparks together in the game. According to VentureBeat‘s Jeff Grubb — who recently leaked what appeared to be pre-alpha gameplay footage of the upcoming title — Skate 4 will be placing greater emphasis on player-generated content, no doubt learning from the success of both GTA Online‘s custom races and Halo‘s fan-favorite Forge mode. To drive this initiative, the highly-anticipated sequel will be offering fans a new game mode called “Free Skate,” which allows players to join the same server and build custom skateparks out of thin air. You’ll be free to add or take away elements like ramps in real-time and create the perfect skate arena for you and your friends. Free Skate aside, Skate 4...
King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard Keep Getting Bigger, And They’re as Surprised as Anyone
Australian rock band King Gizzard the Lizard Wizard are often dinged for their at times unbelievable level of recorded output — 20 studio albums since 2012, including five in 2017 alone (each in a different musical style), umpteen official and unofficial live releases, a tour documentary soundtrack, rarities collections, one-off singles and wickedly creative music videos. But as the group’s catalog grows, so does its worldwide audience, which is poised to make 2022 the biggest year in Gizzard history. Indeed, the band is achieving any number of new milestones in the weeks ahead, from selling out two Red Rocks shows eight months in advance (a third was just added), to playing their largest New York-area concert to date in October at the 13,000-capacity Forest Hills Tennis Stadium and reachi...
Bored Billionaire Elon Musk On Verge of Buying Twitter, Users Say RIP To Social Media Platform
HipHopWired Featured Video CLOSE Source: NurPhoto / Getty It looks like bootleg Tony Stark, aka Elon Musk, will indeed purchase Twitter, and depending on who you ask, this development is not being well received. Reuters reports Twitter is set to accept Musk’s “best and final” $41 billion to purchase the social media platform. The decision comes after the back and forth between the company and Musk as they actively tried to find potential buyers to keep Musk’s stench off the company. Welp, they couldn’t get anyone to drop a bag on Twitter at its current share price, and now they are seemingly caving in to the bored billionaire. Per Reuters: Twitter may announce the $54.20-per-share deal later on Monday once its board has met to recommend the transaction to Twitter shareholders, the sources ...
Jordan Brand Finally Dropping Luka Doncic’s “Luka 1” Signature Sneaker
HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Jordan Brand / Jordan Brand Luka Doncic has been signed to the Jordan Brand for quite a few years now and though he’s had some pretty cool PE’s cooked up for his personal use, the Dallas Mavericks superstar is finally getting his own signature line and fans couldn’t be more excited. Source: Jordan Brand / Jordan Brand On Saturday (April 23), Nike unveiled its long-awaited Luka 1’s and aside from looking sleek and stylish, they also look hella comfortable to walk in which is the most important aspect of any sports sneakers on the market. Using a combination of a new performance foam dubbed Formula 23 (of course) and new IsoPlate foot frame, the Luka 1 seems like it’s next in line to be basketball players go-to sneakers going forward.

50 Cent Says Snoop Dogg Mini-Series At STARZ Is Dead In The Water
HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Bernard Smalls / @PhotosByBeanz Looks like 50 Cent’s Snoop Dogg series, A Moment In Time: Murder Was The Case is no longer going to be going into production and Curtis isn’t too happy about STARZ pulling the plug on his idea. Taking to social media to break the news and vent his frustration, 50 wrote “Murder was the case is no longer in production at STARZ. I give them the alley-top, they drop the damn ball.” As successful as 50’s been over at STARZ, he’s never been shy about calling them out whenever they do something he doesn’t agree with. Can’t be mad at that at all. Related Stories A few months ago 50 announced that he and STARZ would be producing a mini-series around Snoop Dogg’s famous 1993 murder trial in which Snoop Dogg found himself fighting for...
