Twitter Reacts To Viral Sip & Paint Video
HipHopWired Featured Video Source: South_agency / Getty A new viral video has spread across social media (and btw, my use of the words “viral” and “spread” will take on new meanings as you continue to read) and folks on Twitter are having a field day with it. What’s going on in the video reportedly took place during a sip and paint event. Now, for those of you who don’t know what a sip and paint event is, it’s one where patrons drink wine while a professional artist leads them in painting their own art pieces. Some of you might be thinking to yourselves: “Bro, we ain’t stupid and you don’t need to explain to us what a sip and paint event is—it’s pretty much in the title.” Well, yeah, you would think that, wouldn’t you? However, the people depicted in the video may not have understood the a...

Chainz doesn’t actually dance but that’s neither here nor there. Nardo Wick meanwhile gets his playalistic on and in his clip to “Me or Sum” calls on Future and Lil Baby to join him at a private affair where the liquor flows like water and the women are as thick as molasses.
