Sen. Tim Scott Trends For Not Voting To Confirm Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson

HipHopWired Featured Video CLOSE Source: Bill Clark / Getty While the nation’s focus should be on the fact that Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson is the first Black woman to ascend to the U.S. Supreme Court bench, political theater takes center stage once again. Sen. Tim Scott, the Senate’s lone Black Republican Party member, elected not to vote to confirm Justice Brown Jackson, prompting Scott’s name to trend on Twitter. Justice Brown Jackson’s confirmation vote enjoyed full support from all Democratic Party senators along with independents Sen. Bernie Sanders and Sen. Angus King; Sen. Mitt Romney, Sen. Susan Collins, and Sen. Lisa Murkowski were the only votes from GOP senators. Justice Brown Jackson faced grueling questions from GOP members of the Senate Judiciary Committee during hearings ...

Twitter Thinks Donald Glover’s Interview With Himself For ‘Interview Magazine’ Is A Hot “Incel” Mess

HipHopWired Featured Video CLOSE Source: Lionel Hahn / Getty We don’t know who thought it was a good idea for Donald Glover to interview himself, but it happened, and it landed him in hot water with Black women and writers. With the return of his FX dramedy Atlanta, Donald Glover has come out of hiding and back into the spotlight. Noticeably vocal on Twitter, calling out the haters and telling them to be brave and @ him when it comes to critiques about Atlanta’s third season. Glover wanted all the smoke, and he isn’t just getting it from the “blue checks” but from Black women and people who make a living speaking to individuals like himself. There has been a long-standing belief that Glover doesn’t like Black women, and the fact he is married to a white woman doesn’t help his case. Now, wh...

Justice Denied: Minneapolis Prosecutors Say No Criminal Charges Filed In Killing Of Amir Locke

HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Stephen Maturen / Getty Minneapolis prosecutors announced Wednesday that there will be no justice for Amir Locke. The prosecutors effectively made clear, just as Louisville, Kentucky, authorities did in the case of Breonna Taylor, that a cop isn’t responsible for wrongdoing so long as they can say they were on the job and in fear for their lives. Amir’s fear doesn’t matter. It doesn’t matter that Locke was sleeping when cops burst through the door in service of a warrant the 22-year-old wasn’t named in. It doesn’t matter that the gun Locke was holding was one he owned legally—which gave him a right to protect himself with it—when Officer Mark Hanneman shot him to death for holding it. Amir’s Black life didn’t matter. According to the New York Times, prose...

Nicki Minaj Goes British With It On “Carpool Karaoke” With James Corden

HipHopWired Featured Video Source: CBS Photo Archive / Getty This past Wednesday night (April 6) “Carpool Karaoke” returned to The Late Late Show With James Corden after a two-year hiatus (it’s been that long?!) so to make a big splash for the big comeback, the late night talk show host enlisted the talents of the Barbz herself, Nicki Minaj. Kicking off the car ride with a rendition of her smash hit, “Anaconda,” Nicki went and got into her British accent bag and gave a comedic conversation talking like she was straight out of London. After admitting that she might sound like Adele, Nicki went on to rip her verse on “Monster” during which she was paired side-by-side with Adele’s rendition of the classic Nicki verse. Naturally it was only right that Nicki would go on to sing Adele’s classic ...

Lil Baby Reflects on His Career in Two New Tracks, “Right On” and “In A Minute”

Following a series of hard-hitting collaborations, Lil Baby has returned with two new singles of his own. The rapper dropped “Right On” and “In A Minute,” each paired with a high-production music video. In the visual for “Right On,” Lil Baby cruises through his hometown neighborhood in Atlanta in a Rolls Royce. I’m way better than last time,” he asserts while rapping from the backset, reminding everyone that he’s improving each day. On “In A Minute,” the rapper introspectively considers his progress over ominous piano melodies. “I’m in a different league,” he says, “I’m tired of showing what I can get done, what you gonna do for me?” The video flicks through a montage of him performing on stage, taking photos with fans and traveling to his next destination via private jet. Just last week, ...

Dizzee Rascal Receives Community Order for Assaulting Ex-Partner

Dizzee Rascal has received a community order requiring him to wear an electronic tag and observe a 24-week curfew, The Guardian reports. The sentencing in a south London court today (April 8) followed the ruling in March that he had assaulted his ex-fiancée during a domestic dispute. The judge said he had shown “no remorse” and continued “to place the blame” on his ex-partner. He was also given a 12-month restraining order. The grime artist, 36, was charged with assault last August. In court, prosecutors detailed Dizzee Rascal’s assault against the woman, who is also the mother to his two children. He had pushed her to the ground while arguing about custody of the children after “barging” his way into her home. Dizzee Rascal reportedly smashed a press photographer’s camera after the guilty...

Alex G Shares New Song “Main Theme”: Listen

I love horror films, but it was also important to me that my film feel more than just scary. I wanted it to feel gentle, sad, personal, and homemade: the kind of “horror” movie that might make you cry. When Alex’s gorgeous, emotive “Main Theme” enters during our opening credits (and then recurs in mutated forms throughout the movie), it’s meant as a signal to the audience of exactly this ambition.
