This week’s top headlines were dominated by tragedy as two Black men were shot and killed by police in the span of 24 hours. Both incidents were caught on tape and the footage went viral.
Prior to this news, Joe Budden continued his spree against Drake by releasing his second diss track, “Wake.”
Check out everything that went down this week below:
Alton Sterling & Philando Castile Shot Dead By Police Officers
We added two more names this week to the long list of Black people killed by police, including Mike Brown, Rekia Boyd, Eric Garner, Tamir Rice, Laquan McDonald and others. Alton Sterling was shot and killed outside a convenience store in Baton Rouge, Louisiana where he was selling CDs. A day after cell phone footage of the shooting spread like wildfire across social media, a Facebook live video captured the death of Philando Castile during a traffic stop in Falcon Heights, Minnesota. Hip Hop mourned both deaths and called for an end to police brutality. Beyonce and Drake were among those who chimed in with statements calling for justice.
The Game and Snoop Dogg took their words beyond social media and led a peaceful rally to meet with the LAPD and have an open discussion in attempt to break through fear that the police and the Black community have for each other.
Many, including Jay Z and Chris Brown, released music to express their thoughts on the tragedy.
Five Dallas Police Officers Killed
A third shooting left five police officers dead in Dallas at a rally in response to the deaths of the two other men. The suspected sniper was identified as 25-year-old Micah X. Johnson, who authorities say was “upset about the recent police shootings.” He was killed at the scene in a nearby garage by an explosive planted by a police robot.
The social media responses continued to pour in. 50 Cent said he at first wasn’t surprised at the deaths of the police officers, but offered his condolences to their families and those of Sterling and Castile.
Joe Budden Continues Jabs At Drake
The week opened with “Wake,” Joe Budden’s second diss track directed at Drake, which was released a la “Back To Back.” This one was released Wednesday at 2:31 a.m., the time that Drake was born. It was packed with punches at Drizzy, involving Courtney from Hooters, his missing appearance in Fetty Wap’s “My Way (Remix)” video and his strained relationships with iLoveMakonnen and The Weeknd.
Of course, the Internet erupted, but no response from Drake.
The Slaughterhouse rapper then took to Instagram to say that he didn’t mean any harm to Drake and was only trying to get him to step his game up. Remember, he did say that VIEWS sounded uninspired.
Here is an easier summary. A convicted from in possession of a firearm was shot while clearly resisting arrest this week. The following day another man was pulled over for a busted taillight and for some reason told the cops he had a gun. He reached for hi ID when the cop told him to stop reaching he was shot as well. The news here is they where both BLACK. Had they been white or Latino, it wouldn’t be news, even though whites and Latinos are killed by cops more than blacks are. In other news a stupid brainwashed race baiting moron shot several innocent cops without thinking of the consequences of his actions at a black lives matter Rascist protest. Which ironically sent all of the protesters running behind the cops for protection and has now made the cops 100X more likely to shoot black people out of fear. BTW, blacks kill more whites a year than cops kill blacks, a WHITE LIVES MATTER rally would be considered racism. Joe Buddens totally murdered Drake’s pop tart fake Canadian turtleneck wearing ass with a diss track called Wake. Drake is pondering with his maple syrup sipping croanies of he can afford to have Quentin Miller write a response, or if he should simply act like its beneath him, when somehow Murder Mook and Meek Mill weren’t. There you have it…
HHDX, please hire this man. If not for anything else, he is funny as fuck. LOL
Whites aren’t the majority in their own country England #Facts . Blacks have become the majority in America . And whites know this . 12% of the population is BS the media spreads . Every major city in America blacks have become the majority #Truth . Wake up black people you have the POWER .
LOLOLOL. Someone is TERRIBLE at math. Jackass. Blacks are 12.2% of the US population moron. Whites are 63.7%. Count much? BTW, Latinos, who are killed more annually by the police compared to blacks, are 16.3%. Dumbass
BTW. Those fake numbers where confirmed by BLACK media outlets and organization.
Whites aren’t the majority in Europe anymore . The world knows this . America hides this through the media . People are waking up tho .
Europe? Who the fuck is talking about Europe? Who cares? This is a Hip-Hop site. Not a soccer or formula one site. Have fun with your Sirian refugees dummies. How is Paris nowadays? LOLOLOL there was nothing about Europe in this article, dumbass.
Sucking another man’s penis isn’t quite the same without “one dance” playing in the back round. I love a nice hot load down my throat while listening to Drake. All of us Toronto boys wear turtle necks so our throats don’t get cold when there is a dikk sucking contest. Rainbow power! Go Raptors! Maple syrup makes the best man on man lube when going “back to back”. Eh?
In England whites are 86% of the population. LOLOLOL. You think they somehow can hide those numbers? Let’s pretend there are 85% of one thing when there is actually less than 50%. LOL! GTFOH.
