Eminem “Higher,” BRS Kash ft. DaBaby & City Girls “Throat Baby” & More | Daily Visuals 1.25.21
Source: Nicky Nelson/WENN.com / WENN This past weekend Connor McGregor made his long awaited return to the ring at UFC 257 and though he took a SNKRS’s sized “L” at the end of the night, viewers were treated to Eminem’s latest music video. Keeping with the vibe of a big fight night, Eminem’s visuals to “Higher” featured Mrs. Mathers hooded down and getting amped up in the ring a la LL Cool J in “Mama Said Knock You Out.” If anyone didn’t know any better they’d swear this was Em paying homage to the Hip-Hop icon or something. Elsewhere DaBaby looks to keep his name ringing bells in 2021 as he hops on BRS Kash’s clip to the City Girls assisted “Throat Baby” and go through a variety of situations including piloting an airplane to snowboarding down a mountain. It’s all CGI but still looks like...
The First ‘Godzilla vs. Kong’ Trailer Teases A Worldstar Fight of Epic Proportions
Source: Warner Bros / Legendary Entertainment The trailer for Godzilla vs. Kong has finally arrived, and the fades look like they will be on a massive scale. To quote the late Dr. Serizawa (Ken Watanabe), who valiantly sacrificed his life in Godzilla: King of The Monsters, “let them fight.” After being delayed for nearly a year due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Godzilla vs. Kong is upon us, and it looks like it will deliver the epic showdown that Legendary Entertainment has been foreshadowing since it started its “Monsterverse.” The film will primarily feature literally two of the biggest stars in Hollywood duking it out. It will premiere simultaneously in theaters and on HBO Max as part of the deal that saw blockbusters like Wonder Woman 84, Mortal Kombat, and Godzilla vs. Kong lan...
Lil Kim Wants Teyana Taylor To Play Her In A Biopic
Source: FayesVision/WENN.com / WENN When it comes to producing a biopic, no one is as meticulous about the casting process these days as Lil Kim. This time around, she’s going public on who she’d like to represent her on the big screen. Page Six reports that the legendary rapper is secretly working on a project that will allow people “to know the real Kim.” The only person working in show business who can do her life story justice is Teyana Taylor. “It can only be a girl that’s from the hood that I’m from [to portray me],” Kim told Essence. “There’s nobody else in the industry at all but Teyana.” However, her Harlem roots cause a problem for the “Hardcore” rapper, admitting that her ideal girl will carry the Brooklyn grit she’s looking for in her story. “I love Teyana, but she’...
Saweetie Talks Finding True Love In Relationship With Quavo
Source: Tony Forte/WENN / WENN Saweetie and Quavo may have been dubbed “relationship goals” by 20 somethings, but according to the “Tap In” rapper she didn’t realize it was true love until Quavo shared his food. During an interview with Page Six, Saweetie revealed how Quavo swept her off her feet with none other than chicken. “The moment I realized that Quavo really loved me is when he saved me some of his food,” Saweetie said in the interview. “He gave me his last piece of chicken. I wasn’t testing him or anything, I’ll be coming out of a Zoom meeting or done doing something and he would have saved me some of his food.” The “Best Friend” rapper also added that while the couple spoils each other with lavish and expensive gifts, it’s the little things like quality time and attention th...
HHW Gaming: Microsoft Has A Change of Heart & Will Not Be Raising Xbox Live Gold Subscription Prices
Source: Microsoft / Xbox Live Gold Microsoft is now saying sike after indicating it was going to raise Xbox Live Gold subscription prices. Cyberbullying can be used for good. Friday (Jan.22), Microsoft managed to ruin whatever goodwill it established with gamers when it announced that it would ridiculously raise Xbox Live Gold subscription prices. Understandably people were upset that if you didn’t already have a 12-month subscription — which Microsoft no longer offers — you wouldn’t see a price increase. Still, if you’re a new six-month subscriber, you would have to pony up $59.99, basically $120 for an entire year. Well, Microsoft paid attention to the cries from the pissed off button mashers and has decided not to follow through with the subscription price hike. The company announced vi...
Rihanna Says Good Riddance To Donald Trump In The Most Savage Way Possible
Source: Kevin Mazur / Getty Donald Trump’s term is officially up, and Rihanna got in on the fun, saying goodbye to the worst president the United States has ever had. On the day we witnessed so much epicness like our forever Flotus Michelle Obama, and her inauguration BIG DRIP, a huge dose of Black girl magic with Amanda Gorman becoming the youngest inaugural poet ever and those hilarious Bernie Sanders memes, Rihanna wanted to make sure she made a statement as well. In the most savage way possible, the “Diamonds” singer shared a photo of herself on Instagram looking flawless, of course, in her Savage x Fenty intimates covered by “end racism” t-shirt taking out the trash, aka Donald Trump and his administration as her way of showing support for President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala...
Get It Right: ‘Vogue’ Republishing Kamala Harris Issue With New Cover After Backlash
Source: Patrick Smith / Getty It appears that with the change of Presidential administration comes a change of Vogue covers too after the fashion publication announced that they would be reissuing the Kamala Harris feature with a new cover. According to Page Six, after publishing and releasing the abysmal cover of the Vice-President dressed for the campaign trail wearing converse and dressed casual, the iconic fashion publication has announced that they will be re-releasing the issue as a special edition with a new cover after facing backlash from supporters over the lack of professionalism with the original. On Tuesday, Vogue confirmed that it would be publishing this photo as a fresh cover to commemorate Wednesday’s inauguration, saying in a statement: “In recognition of the enormous int...
Jay-Z Launches $10M Fund For Minority-Owned Cannabis Businesses
Source: Robert Kamau / Getty The cannabis industry has most certainly boomed over the past few years, with some projections saying the field could see earnings top $130 billion by 2024 according to some insiders. Jay-Z, seeing the vast potential after launching Monogram, has launched a fund that will put financial muscle behind minority-owned cannabis businesses as he too has dipped his toes into that pool. The Wall Street Journal reports that Jay-Z, real name Shawn Carter, has launched a $10 million fund in order to support Black and minority cannabis businesses and to attract other interested minds to that space as well. The so-called “green rush” has emerged as a popular business model for investors across the nation but very few of the cannabis companies, including entry into the wide-...

Akademiks & Funkmaster Flex Question Roc Nation’s CEO Getting A Trump Pardon [Video]
Source: Rich Fury / Getty Trash day is over but dumping on folks is a forever thing apparently. Two of Hip-Hop’s most outspoken voices have refocused their sights on Roc Nation. The former President of the United States Donald Trump pardoned a gang of individuals on his final day. Included in this list was Desiree Perez, the CEO of Roc Nation. For those not in the know, the executive had different career goals back in the 1990’s. According to the New York Daily News, the DEA claims she was part of a massive cocaine ring that generated millions of dollars per month. In 1994, she was arrested for conspiracy to distribute 35 kilos of cocaine. Surprisingly she took the Tekashi 69 route to get her time reduced, allegedly. The NY Daily News she “agreed to wear hidden wires to record her meeting ...
She Always Has Time: AOC Checks Bonehead Texas Senator Ted Cruz For Idiotic Paris Climate Agreement Tweet
Source: Tom Williams / Getty AOC always has time to check Ted Cruz on Twitter when he tweets something really dumb. President Joe Biden wasted no time fixing some of the issues that he inherited from Donald Trump. On top of his list of executive orders was to rejoin the Paris Climate Agreement immediately. Trump withdrew the United States from the agreement for no good reason except that it’s something our forever president, Barack Obama, agreed to. With Trump pulling the U.S. out, we joined nine countries out of the 197 that signed on to pledge to take steps to reduce their carbon footprints to tackle the issue of climate change. Of the nine countries that didn’t join the Paris Climate Agreement, the U.S. and Iran were the biggest emitters of greenhouse gases. Ted Cruz, who has been deser...
Stop The Cap: Charges Against Tory Lanez For Allegedly Shooting Megan Thee Stallion Have Not Been Dropped
Source: Bernard Smalls / @PhotosByBeanz83 That story about Megan Thee Stallion dropping charges against Tory Lanez is pure C A P. Twitter can be a great tool when used properly, but it’s also the land of misinformation where a lie can spread faster than the actual truth. Earlier today (Jan.21), Tory Lanez apologists thought they got what they were hoping for, and that’s some sort of vindication that the Canadian varmint didn’t shoot Megan Thee Stallion in a July 2020 incident. A tweet (that should be deleted) from an account called FuciousTV claimed the charges against Lanez were dropped. “According to the #LosAngeles County Superior Court website, the charges against #ToryLanez in the July 2020 incident have been or dropped. The website indicates that there are no upcoming trial dates aft...
Lil Wayne Denies Being A Shill For Donald Trump Got Him His Pardon
Source: @liltunechi / Twitter Donald Trump is officially out but he made a couple of wishes come true for some rappers. Lil Wayne is now attempting to clear his name when it comes to his failed attempt at attracting voter support. As spotted on Complex the former President of the United States pardoned Weezy on Wednesday, January 20. With Trump’s signature the man born Dwayne Michael Carter, Jr. had his federal weapons charges dropped. When it was confirmed TuneChi would not serve time (he was facing 10 years), the general consensus was that his endorsement of the impeached politician was a trade off for pardon consideration. The MC’s lawyer is now attempting to clear that stigma. In an exclusive interview with The New York Times Wayne’s lawyer Bradford Cohen stated that the...
