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.

With any “free service,” users should expect to experience some ads before they are given access to the Wi-Fi. Not all of Delta’s flights will have free Wi-Fi; per the company’s announcement, the free service will roll out on “most” mainline dom...

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...
