Hot off the heels of trolling the Internet by posting a Jordan Brand logo on his Instagram and debuting his official cover for SLAM magazine, Kanye West has now announced that his forthcoming record DONDA 2 is slated to drop on February 22, 2022.

Speculation of this new sequel project being in the works has been floating around since the start of the year, the most recent evidence being from Memphis emcee Moneybagg Yo who posted a screenshot of a text exchange with t...

HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Treyarch / Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War PlayStation owners who love Call of Duty can breathe a sigh of relief for the time being. Per Bloomberg, despite being tentatively gobbled up by Microsoft, Activision plans on releasing the next three Call of Duty games on both PlayStation and Xbox consoles.

This news comes after CEO of Microsoft Gaming Phil Spencer revealed he had spoken with Sony telling the comp...

MAGA Twitter Gets Faulty Edges Owner Candace Owens Trending Over Pipe Dream Supreme Court Bid
HipHopWired Featured Video CLOSE Source: Jason Davis / Getty Candace Owens might be a lot of things and plenty of them unsavory may we add, but could you imagine her as a U.S. Supreme Court justice? Apparently, the dusty roadways of MAGA Twitter seem to think so. The fiercely intense segment of the social media network tends to attach itself to its edgeless warrior queen in Candace Owens, propping her up as the leading example of how Black folks should divest from the Democratic Party and liberal politics. Owens happily leans into her role as a Black leader in the conservative space and was delighted at Twitter making mention of her for the pipe dream bid for the nation’s highest court. “Am I really trending because America wants me to be the next Supreme Court justice? What an honor!” rea...

Eddie Vedder Takes a Look Inside on the Compelling Earthling
“Are you ready for a bit of Echo Victor?” a reverberating Eddie Vedder announces at the top of his third solo album Earthling, invoking the radio alphabet code for “EV.” And all at once, it’s clear this is the Pearl Jam frontman’s 13-song transmission from beyond our world, our time, our lives, and our dimension. He is calling out into the universe with his own Voyager Golden Record to share what it is to be human here on our planet. Or is it nakedly in a dreamlike alternate timeline where the ‘90s are in the future, and everything all is a warm, analog avocado-and-harvest-gold rave-up visited by legends like Elton John, Stevie Wonder, Ringo Starr, and touched by love and loss equally? This is Major Tom beyond ground control, the man who fell from Earth. In the capsule out in the cosmic oc...
Australian Rocker Johnny Galvatron Fuses Music and Gaming on The Artful Escape
There’s no shortage of video games that want to bring music to the forefront, but few (or none) of them do it quite like The Artful Escape. With a storyline centered around music, gameplay that intentionally feels more like the badassery of a concert than the challenge of a video game, and enough classic rock references to please your burnout uncle who thinks video games are for children, The Artful Escape is almost music-focused to a fault. Of course, a title that unique (and published by the indie giant Annapurna Interactive) couldn’t be made by traditional developers. Instead, it was directed by Johnny Galvatron (of Australian rock band, The Galvatrons) and his crew at Beethoven & Dinosaur, while the music was put together by producer/writer/artist Josh Abrahams and guitarist Eden A...
Josh Klinghoffer’s Pluralone Shares New Song ‘Claw Your Way Out’
Josh Klinghoffer, under the moniker Pluralone, embraced the desolation of the pandemic to create the opposite. The ex-Red Hot Chili Peppers guitarist spent the past year working on new music. Before he heads out on the road as part of Eddie Vedder’s Earthlings next week, Klinghoffer shared a new Pluralone single titled “Claw Your Way Out.” “Claw Your Way Out” features former Jane’s Addiction bassist Eric Avery and Dot Hacker bandmate Eric Gardner on drums. The song was produced by another Dot Hacker bandmate, guitarist Clint Walsh. Its dreamy synths surround sharp beats and Klinghoffer’s high-pitched drawl, and as a whole, renders his growth in musicianship as a solo artist. The chorus allows the synths to trickle over Klinghoffer’s persuasive croon, “claw your way out, claw your way out.”...
