HipHopWired Featured Video Source: @MATHHOFFA / Youtube It’s no secret that Tekashi 6ix9ine remains one of the most hated men in Hip-Hop today and now Fat Joe has become the latest high profile rapper to air out the most famous snitch in Hip-Hop history. Joey Crack had some pretty strong opinions on Tekashi that he aired out while he was sitting down with Math Hoffa for Math’s Expert Opinion podcast and labeled the “Gummo” rapper a “a p*ssy, a sucka, a B*tch!” No lies detected. That being said, Fat Joe did say he doesn’t wish any harm on Tekashi but feels like he might have a death wish given how Tekashi carries himself out in these internet streets. Related Stories Naturally, Tekashi caught wind of Fat Joe’s popular opinion and hit up TMZ to clap back at the New York Triple OG and b...

The Inquisitors, commanded by Vader but led by the Grand Inquisitor (Rupert Friend), will be on Kenobi’s tail as he ...

HipHopWired Featured Video CLOSE Source: NBC / Getty The 2022 Billboard Music Awards went down in Las Vegas, and the award’s show executive producer, and host, Diddy, promised fun vibes, and thanks to some of the performances, he was right.

HipHopWired Featured Video CLOSE Source: Tim Nwachukwu / Getty The Ben Simmons and James Harden trade is looking like it didn’t benefit either the Brooklyn Nets or Philadelphia 76ers. After the Philadelphia 76ers got bounced out of the playoffs by Jimmy Butler, and the Miami Heat Thursday night (May.12), NBA Twitter ultimately decided that the trade between the Nets and Sixers didn’t benefit either franchise. Harden, who has been a shell of his former self since he was dealt from the Houston Rockets to the Nets, kept his playoff legacy of disappearing during the postseason going. With a hobbled Joel Embiid trying his best to help Philly force a Game 7, Harden decided to check out in the second half of the game, only taking TWO shots. Yes, you read that correctly, just TWO shots. Stephen A....
HipHopWired Featured Video CLOSE Source: Guy D’Alema / Atlanta FX Atlanta sticks with its theme of airing episodes that don’t feature the show’s four main characters. Season three’s ninth episode, “Rich Wigga, Poor Wigga,” brilliantly tackles what it means to be Black and how Blackness is judged. SPOILERS AHEAD The episode, which immediately gives off Twilight Zone due to its black and white vibes, follows Aaron (Tyriq Wethers), a biracial teenager who, at first, you wouldn’t think it has an ounce of melanin in him based on his reaction to Black kids he is playing video games with online. It also hits you like a punch to the gut when we meet Aaron’s Black father, who is trying to raise a young teen, clearly influenced by his white friends with Black parental skills. Aaron’s struggle ...
HipHopWired Featured Video CLOSE Source: Capcom / Ultra Street Fighter IV Is Fei Long’s run in Street Fighter coming to an end? That might be the unfortunate case. Fei Long, a character that obviously gets his inspiration from the iconic martial arts movie star Bruce Lee, quickly became a favorite among fighting game fans when he was first introduced in Super Street Fighter II. Nintendo Life reports that Fei Long’s time as a playable character in the Street Fighter game has ended. Like Bruce Lee, Fei Long was a martial artist and action star and was Capcom’s tribute to the late actor, but apparently, the Lee family has done a 360 when it comes to seeing non-serious depictions of Bruce Lee. Street Fighter V composer Daniel Lindholm revealed during a YouTube Q&A that “comedic interpretat...
HipHopWired Featured Video CLOSE Source: WB Games / Gotham Knights It looks like video game studios are slowly transitioning away from the PS4 and Xbox One, and we think that is a good idea. Gotham Knights will be the next big video game that only next-generation console owners will be able to enjoy. Tuesday (May.10), Warner Bros. Interactive unveiled a new gameplay demo of its highly anticipated game Gotham Knights, which also came with some disheartening news. The studio announced the game would no longer be coming to last-generation systems. That is a complete 360 from original news when Gotham Knights was first announced in 2020 when Warner Bros. Interactive said the game would be coming to the PS4 and Xbox One. [embedded content] As for the reasoning for the decision, the studio said ...
HipHopWired Featured Video CLOSE Source: Theo Wargo / Getty Somehow, someway, social media has found a way to include Chloe Bailey in Young Thug and his YSL crew’s legal drama. For those who don’t know, Atlanta rapper Young Thug was among 28 individuals rounded up by law enforcement and slapped with RICO (Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act) conspiracy charges. Also among the group was Thugger’s artist, Gunna, who was rumored to be dating Chloe Bailey, a claim that she has flat out denied. Regardless, Black Twitter, who has a unique skill in finding comedy in the direst of situations, decided to throw Chloe Bailey’s name in the mess anyway. Twitter users are hilariously warning her not to go full Monica, a nod to the “So Gone” singer still being down for the currently incarc...
