NEWS: Stray Shots: Nicki Minaj's Gyration & Taylor Swift's Cultural Appropriation

                                               Stray Shots: Nicki Minaj's Gyration & Taylor Swift's Cultural Appropriation
This week, Nicki Minaj gives you all the booty you can't handle, and Taylor Swift finds herself in the crossfire after some ill-timed genre parodying.
Once upon a time in a universe far, far away, HipHopDX used to host blogs. Through Meka, Brillyance, Aliya Ewing and others, readers got unfiltered opinions on the most current topics in and beyond Hip Hop. After a few years, a couple redesigns and the collective vision of three different Editors-In-Chief, blogs are back. Sort of. Since our blog section went the way of two-way pagers and physical mixtapes, Twitter, Instagram and Ustream have further accelerated the pace of current events in Hip Hop. Rappers beef with each other 140 characters at a time, entire mixtapes (and their associated artwork) can be released via Instagram, and sometimes these events require a rapid reaction.
