Kany’e Ex Julia Fox Walks Back Comments About Ye Being Harmless
HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Christian Vierig / Getty Julia Fox, the woman who dated Kanye West for like three weeks and, I guess, is an actress or something, appears to be wishing she never opened her mouth to speak on the hot-but-persistent mess that is Ye’s saga with his ex, Kim Kardashian, and her new boo Pete Davidson. Last week, we reported that Fox basically stepped inside her own mouth during a talk with TMZ in which she defended Yeezus and his “Easy” video and basically said that Ye is harmless and his Fatal Attraction-like behavior is all artistic expression. Well, now TMZ has caught up with the—she’s like a model or something, right?—the model is walking those comments all the way back as she admits she really hasn’t been paying attention to the Kanye-verse and didn’t know...
Pusha T Drops Diss Track Aimed at McDonald’s for Arby’s Spicy Fish Commercial
Pusha T has partnered with Arby’s on a diss track promoting its Spicy Fish Sandwich, poking fun at McDonald’s, home to a competing seafood meal, the Filet-O-Fish. “How dare you sell a square fish, asking us to trust it?” he raps, referencing the nature of McDonald’s famous fish sandwich. In 2016, it was revealed that Pusha T was behind McDonald’s “I’m Lovin’ It” jingle, which he alludes to on the track, “I’m the reason/The whole world love it/Now I gotta crush it.” In an interview with Rolling Stone, Pusha T said, “I am solely responsible for the ‘I’m Lovin’ It’ swag and the jingle of that company. I did it at a very young age at a very young time in my career where I wasn’t asking for as much money and ownership. It’s something that’s always dug at me later in life like, ‘Damnit, I was a ...

Here’s How Ultra, EDC and Other Music Festivals Impact Airbnb Prices
Many of us have experienced the immense frustration of attempting to book travel accommodations for a massive music festival. But how much extra are we spending in comparison to those who travel to the same destinations on any given day? A new study from money.co.uk analyzed just how much extra we spend on Airbnb accommodations during music festivals. While the results may not be shocking, they’re fairly eye-opening for those who haven’t thought twice about how much profit there is to be had from an Airbnb booking during festival season. This year’s edition of Ultra Miami has caused a 19.1% surge, increasing the average Airbnb price from $456 to $543. However, Ultra surprisingly ranks 18th in a total overall increase in comparison to other major fests. Hardwell perfo...
