📰 HIP HOP NEWS THAT’S NOT ABOUT DUMB SH*T

I hope y’all have noticed my new Reels/Shorts/TikTok series, “Hip Hop News That’s Not About Dumb Sh*T” — Quick one minute tidbits of, well, the title says it all. Make sure you’re following me on YouTube, Instagram, and TikTok so you don’t miss these when they drop.

Everyone says they want Hip Hop media to do better. Well, as always, I do better. Follow, share, and if you can, support my work so I can keept going.

In that spirit, here are some stories I found that I think y’all will like:
