HipHopWired Featured Video CLOSE Source: Nintendo / The Super Mario Bros. Movie Nintendo has dropped the second trailer for The Super Mario Bros. Movie, and this time it’s hitting a lot better than the first one. The first teaser gave us a taste of Illumination’s upcoming animated adventure, The Super Mario Bros. Movie, which features, much to the dismay of fans, Chris Pratt as the voice of the beloved video game plumber. In the second trailer, we get a better look at the gorgeous animated movie and the other characters not named Mario or Bowser (Jack Black). We get our first look at Princess Peach, voiced by Anya Taylor-Joy. This peach isn’t the damsel in distress we are used to encountering in the Super Mario Bros. games. Like the other characters, she also has an updated look in the fil...

Chris Brown won the award besting Lucky Daye (who should have won), The Weeknd, Brent Faiyaz, and GIVĒON.

The Hotties Are Giving Drake Fits For Alleged Shady Megan Thee Stallion Subliminal Diss
HipHopWired Featured Video CLOSE Source: Prince Williams / Getty It’s getting sticky for Drake after fans feel he took a shot at Megan Thee Stallion on a new song. The hotties are dragging Drake by his braids after the rapper, who claims “he studies rap battles for a living,” spit some shady bars that many feels were a subliminal jab at Megan Thee Stallion. Drake and 21 Savage’s joint effort Her Loss has finally arrived after a slight delay due to Noah “40” Shebib catching rona. While Twitter is already debating if the album is a “classic,” one song is the subject of harsh criticism. On the song “Circo Loco,” many believe Drake took a shot at Megan Thee Stallion and made light of the incident where she was shot allegedly by Tory Lanez, who, like Drake, also happens to be Candian. “This b**...
