Ohio KK-Karen Claims She’s ‘Being Terrorized’ By Black People During Sentencing For…Terrorizing Black People
HipHopWired Featured Video Source: WTOL / WTOL If the privileged, entitled and often dangerous white women we not-so-affectionately call “Karens” have nothing else, they have the nerve. On Thursday, a white woman from Ohio was sentenced to six months in prison for shouting racial slurs at a group of Black teenagers and trying to hit them with her car in a grocery store parking lot. During sentencing, the woman reportedly broke down in the saltiest of mayonnaise-flavored tears and tried to justify her actions by essentially saying Black people have “terrorized” her for years and that’s the reason she felt the need to terrorize complete strangers who happened to be of the melanated variety.

Struggle Rapper Kid Rock Makes Anti-Woke Song, Twitter Slanders MAGA Goofball
HipHopWired Featured Video CLOSE Source: Pool / Gettynews Apparently, struggle rapper du jour Kid Rock is still making music. His latest song is some anti-woke nonsense, and Twitter is slandering the goofball accordingly. For those who don’t know, Kid Rock was always a privileged white guy who found rap, made some cash of it, and continues to flourish, allegedly, off of his colonizing ways. Real Hip-Hop heads give absolutely no f*cks about Kid Rock, so he’s been relegated to the backwaters of MAGA-land and people who don’t know any better. So here we are, and Kid Rock has reportedly created a song with themes of anti-wokeness and anti-cancel culture. Reports TMZ: It’s an interesting tune — and definitely NOT subtle whatsoever in the message KR is trying to communicate … namely, his apparen...

MAGA Twitter Desperately Tries To Paint President Joe Biden As Racist #RacistJoe
HipHopWired Featured Video CLOSE Source: Pool / Getty President Joe Biden will never satisfy folks on both sides of the aisle or political ideology, and it’s safe to assume his detractors remain hellbent on finding a reason to tear down the former U.S. Senator. On Thursday (November 11), Biden delivered remarks at a public ceremony where he stumbled on his wording by saying the words “the great Negro” as he honored former U.S. Ambassador to Hungary, Donald M. Blinken. At a Veterans Day ceremony at Arlington National Cemetery in Arlington, Va., President Biden addressed attendees during a speech in observance of the federal holiday. Biden turned his attention to Blinken, the father of current U.S. Secretary of State Atony Blinken, to thank him for his military service and public service to ...

However, the organization said it was “disappointed that Morgan has not used his platform to support any anti-racism end...
