Elon Musk Shows Off First Demonstration Of Neuralink In Action

by

Elon Musk has released the first look at the Neuralink, the neural implant tech he owns, in action. Nolan Arbaugh, a 29-year-old quadriplegic, appears to control a remote digital touchscreen in order to play chess only using his neural impulses. At the very least, the footage appears to confirm that Arbaugh is alive and well, unlike the dozens of monkeys that reportedly died testing the implant. However, the footage is yet to be confirmed as genuine.

Furthermore, massive ethical issues surrounding Neuralink remain. While Arbaugh’s success, if confirmed, is great news for the industry, Musk is not the person many want leading the research breakthrough. Neuralink has been surprisingly covert for a Musk-owned company. However, many people believe that this is in order to mask transparency in hopes of increasing volunteer sign-ups. Neuralink is currently targeting those with severe, life-altering disabilities for human trials. Furthermore, there is no set timeline for a wider release of Neuralink.

Elon Musk Rants About Jeff Bezos’ Ex-Wife, People Call Him “The Most Divorced Man On The Internet”

Elsewhere, People have labeled Elon Musk “the most divorced man on the Internet” after the X owner tweeted about the ex-wife of Jeff Bezos. Musk had gone after MacKenzie Scott for her charitable donations, writing “‘Super rich ex-wives who hate their former spouse’ should be listed among ‘Reasons that Western Civilization died’.” Scott, who has stated that she wants to “give away all of her money”, has given over $16.5 billion, with over half that going to charities focused on gender and race issues.

However, the internet has taken this as yet another opportunity to dunk on the South African-born billionaire. As mentioned, the label of “most divorced man on the internet” was once again raised for Musk. His posts have become increasingly bitter after his divorce from Grimes. It is worth mentioning that he has since deleted his post about Scott.

Candace Owens Struggles To Defend Her White Husband While Ranting About “Black Families”

by

Candace Owens had her grifting nature exposed while trying to defend why she married a white man. When pressed by Charlamagne Tha God, Owens fired off about 20 different starts to answer before settling on none of them. As one commenter who reacted to the clips online summarized – “She windmilling all over that question. Basically said she’s too smart for a black man so she had to marry white. This girl has a high school education. And while there’s nothing wrong with that, it certainly doesn’t match her delusion. Bye!”

Of course, Owens isn’t exactly a fan of the US education system. “I just don’t need to hear about Ice Spice’s farts, I just don’t. I don’t want to hear about it. We used to produce really good music and it’s gone down the drain. I think even that is international. I think it’s because it’s a part of the, ‘Let’s slowly make it modify the education systems so that Black people can’t read and, at the same time, feed them with a pipeline of garbage,’ and you will wake up one day, and what surrounds you will be garbage,” Owens ranted last week while speaking with Joe Budden. However, given her support of the right-wing propaganda farm PragerU, Owens doesn’t exactly have the best interests of the education system at heart.

Candace Owens Calls Lizzo “Problematic” And Accuses Her Of Gaslighting

Elsewhere, as part of her interview with Budden, Candace Owens called out Lizzo for gaslighting people. Owens’ issues with Lizzo stem from the response to Lizzo twerking her bare backside at an NBA game. Owens said she had the right to call out Lizzo’s behavior as “problematic”. However, she felt “gaslit” when Lizzo defended herself by saying that it was a “you problem” if you took issue with her behavior.

Of course, Lizzo twerking at an NBA game is the least of her “problematic” behaviors. After all, the singer is currently fighting a fairly nasty sexual harassment lawsuit. Furthermore, Owens is sort of the queen of telling people that their opposing viewpoints are “their problem”.

Future and Metro Boomin are releasing the first of their two collaboration albums in just a few hours. We Don’t Trust You was first teased back in January 2023 on social media, so the anticipation for it has been building for quite a while.

Although the album’s tracklist has yet to be released, there have been a couple of teasers, including Metro Boomin saying that Playboi Carti would appear on “Type Sh*t.” The duo also performed unreleased songs during their set at Rolling Loud California, with Travis Scott appearing on two of them. It’s unclear if these will make the record, but fans will have to wait and see when it drops tonight.

Here’s when to expect to hear it on Apple Music.

When Will Future & Metro Boomin’s We Don’t Trust You Album Be On Apple Music?

Fans will be able to listen to Future and Metro Boomin’s We Don’t Trust You album on Apple Music starting at 12 a.m. ET or 9 p.m. for those on PT. Those in other time zones should follow the conversion to know when to hear it.

Their second album’s title is still unknown, but it will drop just a few weeks later in mid-April.

We Don’t Trust You is out 3/22 via Boominati/Freebandz/Republic. Find more information here.

A Runaway Tierra Whack Balloon Causes Philadelphia Chaos In Her Bittersweet ‘Two Night’ Video

by

A few years ago, some Canadian professors created a hitchhiking robot and sent it abroad to study “how people interact with technology.” The ‘bot managed to make 10 days in Germany and three weeks in the Netherlands, but met its gruesome end in Philadelphia.

I don’t know if Tierra Whack had that story in mind when she conceived her oddly bittersweet “Two Night” video with Alex Da Corte, but the comparisons are there if you want to make them. In the CGI-animated video, Whack appears as a massive parade balloon floating over her hometown. However, her presence REALLY seems to irk the City of Brotherly Love, whose citizens go to extreme lengths to bring the balloon down, even going as far as injuring themselves with increasingly dangerous stunts.

The balloon is brought down in flames, and only then do the people seem to realize what they’ve lost, leaving flowers in memoriam at the site of its destruction. The video is unexpectedly moving, and its message is blaringly clear and multilayered without being completely morbid; there are bright spots of hope near the end, suggesting that Whack isn’t quite ready to give up yet, despite the song’s haunting hook.

“Two Night” appears on Tierra Whack’s new album, World Wide Whack, her first ever full-length project and first project overall since 2018’s Whack World. It’s out now via Interscope Records. Get it here.

Teezo Touchdown Has Six Legs And An Angelic Voice In The ‘First Night’ Video With Denzel Curry, Juicy J, Cochise, And Lil B

by

On January 26, Cole Bennett shepherded All Is Yellow, his first-ever Lyrical Lemonade compilation album, into the world. Bennett promised a video would accompany each of the album’s 14 tracks, and the prolific director is keeping his word by slowly releasing them from the vault, including “Fly Away” in February and “Doomsday 2” earlier this month. On Wednesday, March 20, the Bennett-directed video for “First Night” with Teezo Touchdown, Juicy J, Cochise, Denzel Curry, and Lil B arrived.

As has become customary with Lyrical Lemonade videos, the “First Night” video begins with an all-yellow curtain as the backdrop. A stretched-out Teezo sits in front of it — with six legs sprawled in front of him — as he sings, “Come and let me teach you how to sing / Oh, you didn’t know that I could sing? Oh, girl, you know that I can sing The whole world know that I can sing.” Teezo ends the first verse with a request: “Somebody help me sing about me.”

That cues a trap beat to drop and Juicy J to emerge from behind a yellow curtain. Similarly to Teezo, Juicy J has cartoonishly humongous hands. Eventually, Cochise and Curry join Juicy J in the empty movie theater — spitting shameless, whiplash-inducing bars about no-strings sex and money.

In the serene outro, Lil B plays devil’s advocate: You know, one-night stands are alright / But love is the greatest / Having sex on the first night is cool / But we could wait / It’s so much love in this world / Take your time, ask questions first, let’s talk / It’s so much respect in the air / Don’t worry about it / But you could f*ck, too, if you want / But don’t feel like you got to.”

Lil B disappears behind the yellow curtain as Teezo Touchdown restarts his intro.

There’s an argument to be had that the best part of a new album is the anticipation leading up to its release. Luckily, Future and Metro Boomin fans have two release dates to look forward to. The top-tier hip-hop duo debuted “Type Sh*t” during their Rolling Loud California 2024 headlining set, as circulated by fan accounts on X (formerly Twitter). Metro Boomin and Playboi Carti had previously teased the song, leaving people to wonder about the featured artists on Future and Metro Boomin’s forthcoming two joint albums, We Don’t Trust You.

The wait is almost over for the first one.

When Will Future & Metro Boomin’s We Don’t Trust You Album Be On Spotify?

The first We Don’t Trust You release date is Friday, March 22, which means the album should be available to stream on Spotify at 9 p.m. PST and midnight EST. The second release date is set for Friday, April 12.

Metro Boomin and Future announced We Don’t Trust You with a cinematic trailer on March 8. But Metro teased it several times last year. In September, Metro posted an Instagram carousel full of photos from the studio with Future with the caption, “AOTY loading… [three battery emojis].”

The following month, Metro Boomin told Complex‘s Jessica McKinney, “My blinders on tunnel vision. All I can see right now is me and Future’s album. Nothing else until that’s out.”

Benzino Films “Rap Elvis” Diss Visual At Eminem’s Detroit Restaurant: Watch

by

As far as rap beef goes, 2024 has mostly seen drama brewing between some of the biggest femcees in the industry so far. Of course, that doesn’t mean the men of hip-hop aren’t having issues of their own. In particular, Benzino and Eminem have carried their long-running beef into this year, airing out their feelings on diss tracks like “Doomsday 2” and “Rap Elvis.” Earlier this month, Cole Bennett unleashed the visual he directed for the latter, in which the “Mockingbird” artist insults Benzino’s lack of a neck, among other things.

While the music video doesn’t target the former media mogul with much more than Em’s words, he’s fighting back dirty with his “Rap Elvis” visual. As AllHipHop reports, Zino was out in Detroit filming footage to accompany his single, specifically hitting up his nemesis’ Mom’s Spaghetti restaurant to try (and promptly insult) the food. On Wednesday (March 20) the 58-year-old shared behind-the-scenes previews of him taunting Eminem, including one that shows him seemingly stealing the eatery’s sign from outside and hauling it into a van.

It’s evident that the Mom’s Spaghetti menu isn’t up to Zino’s standards, as he sampled one item from the menu before wastefully throwing it on the ground. According to the embattled star, the spaghetti was “horrible.” As far as his diss video’s release date, the Boston native promised, “Soon come.”

While Benzino is busy plotting revenge on Eminem, the 8 Mile actor has been on set too, though his project is far more light-hearted in nature than what the former leader of The Source is working on. For his part, Slim Shady joined Dr. Dre, 50 Cent, and Snoop Dogg to star in a “Dre’s Anatomy” skit on Jimmy Kimmel’s late-night show. Read all about that at the link below, and check back later for more hip-hop/pop culture news updates.
