HipHopWired Featured Video Source: NurPhoto / Getty / Delta Flying the friendly skies got a bit better for Delta Skymiles Members thanks to Delta’s longstanding partnership with T-Mobile. Hinting at this big move coming in 2023, Delta has finally confirmed that SkyMiles Members will get free inflight Wi-Fi as part of its partnership with T-Mobile.

SZA Releases Digital ‘SOS’ Album With “PSA” and Her “Open Arms” Solo Version
Since SZA released SOS last month, the highly-anticipated album has continued to run up the streaming numbers. And to celebrate its chart-topping success, the R&B artist has decided to bless her fans with a new digital version of the record that includes “PSA” and her solo rendition of “Open Arms.” “PSA” was first teased prior to the album release along with a video visual. Length-wise it falls on the shorter end by clocking in at one minute and 40 seconds. She references Baryshnikov — the famous ballet dancer — in the tune as an allusion to how she enjoys pushing the buttons of a possible lover in crafty ways much like how you must be flexible and agile as a dancer. “Open Arms” has certainly been one of the more popular tunes from the new project. Fans have shown their appreciation fo...
