Stacey Dash Emerges From Conservative Cocoon To Realize DMX Passed Away A Year Ago
HipHopWired Featured Video CLOSE Source: Michael Tran / Getty Stacey Dash most likely doesn’t consider herself a Hip-Hop head so she probably should be forgiven after just discovering that a favorite artist of hers has passed away. In a new video the actress posted to social media, Dash is seen in the clip reacting with heavy emotion over the death of the beloved rapper, DMX. Taking both to TikTok and sharing the clip on Instagram, Stacey Dash, now 55, says she was strolling through TikTok to find a song and it was then she realized the rapper born Earl Simmons is no longer with us. From Instagram: I was strolling through #tiktok and found a #DMX song that has saved me many times.

MAGA Stooge Nick Adams Says Kid Rock Should Drop Music Same Day As Taylor Swift
HipHopWired Featured Video CLOSE Source: Scott Legato / Getty Kid Rock, a middling struggle rapper at best, is something of a MAGA mascot these days and a favorite of former president and top-secret document hoarder, Donald Trump. Nick Adams, a political pundit who stans for Trump, issued a pair of tweets suggesting Kid Rock should drop an album the same day as Taylor Swift. Out of respect for your time and energy, we won’t post the direct tweets in question but instead share it in full below. From Nick Adams: Under Joe Biden, America is more divided than at any point in our history since the Civil War. Music brings people together. It’s become abundantly clear, America does NOT need new music from Taylor Swift. America needs a new Kid Rock album ASAP to re-unify the country! — Kid Rock sh...

Chunky Comedian Aries Spears Attacks Lizzo With Fatphobia, Twitter Holds Up A Mirror
HipHopWired Featured Video CLOSE Source: Gilbert Carrasquillo / Getty Aries Spears is currently catching the wrath of Twitter after fat-shaming Lizzo and using a highly insensitive comparison to do so. As a result, fans of the popular singer is reminding Spears that he’s definitely seen slimmer days himself. The clip of Aries Spears taking a shot at Lizzo was captured by the YouTube program, The Art Of Dialogue, which shared a now-viral clip of Spears looking far more washed that the 47 years of age he reportedly is. We would love to avoid giving a breakdown of what Spears said but for the sake of context, the comedian compared Lizzo’s shape to the poop emoji and complained about her choice to show off her body in an array of outfits. To be fair to Spears, he did realize that this was the ...

Token GOP Tap Dancer Herschel Walker Doesn’t Know How Climate Change Works
HipHopWired Featured Video CLOSE Source: Megan Varner / Getty Herschel Walker is reportedly locked in a tight race with incumbent Sen. Raphael Warnock in Georgia, but he’s doing a lot to undo his supposed momentum ahead of the election. During a rare public speaking weekend appearance, the former NFL player and political neophyte proved that he’s also a little new to the climate change debate too. The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported that Herschel Walker, 60, was in Sandy Springs, Ga. at the Republican Jewish Coalition. During his time at the event, Walker took aim at a law that addresses climate change but didn’t exactly nail the point. “They continue to try to fool you like they’re helping you out, but they’re not,” Walker said Sunday (August 21), taking a swipe at the Inflation Red...
