In a [talk on Twitter Spaces]() with fellow hip hop artist Joe Budden — [not to be confused with Joe *Biden*](), the president of the United States who just [dropped out of the 2024 election]() over the weekend — Fiasco, whose birth name is Wasalu Muhammad Jaco, let his colleague and their assembled audience in on his jacking off secrets. Almost as soon as the rapper popped into the audio-only Spaces session, the conversation turned to smut, which led to Fiasco revealing how he got into the genre. "I’ve evolved over time," explained Fiasco, whose [fifth studio album "Samurai]()" dropped at the end of June. "You start with the light shit, then eventually you get bored with the light shit." After getting a pair of VR goggles for his birthday a "couple of years ago," the 42-year-old rapper said that they've become "purely porn glasses at this point." https://youtu.be/HdXNfhxFAyw?t=4060 ## Method Madness As the conversation meandered around the topic of porn, Fiasco was then asked whether he lays down or sits up while masturbating. In response, he said it "depends on if I have the glasses on or not" before revealing that he likes to masturbate with condoms on to avoid having to wash an extra-dirty pair of socks. Though there was some discussion about where to find porn on X-formerly-Twitter, Fiasco notably did *not* let listeners in on where he finds his VR porn. This would suggest that instead of owning a pair of Apple Vision VR goggles, which [infamously ban porn]() in the spirit of the late Steve Jobs' [distaste for it](), Fiasco seems more likely to have a pair of goggles made by Meta, which now almost officially have a "[masturbation mode]()." Despite the official disparities between the two leading brands, however, people have unsurprisingly managed to watch porn on all VR devices basically since they first began being offered to the public [nearly a decade ago]() — and the genre clearly counts Fiasco among its fans. **More on porn:** [*OpenAI Exploring How to Make AI-Generated Porn*]() ## Author At Futurism, I've often been drawn to unpacking the narratives that underlie technological, scientific and medical progress, with a special interest in areas of conflict and ambiguity that end up setting agendas and steering the fates of both elites and the hoi polloi. I'm a committed generalist, but I often find myself returning to work involving NASA and the private space sector, the effects of AI on media and society, and the mechanics of the pharmaceutical industry, with a specific focus on the spread of GLP-1 drugs like Ozempic and Wegovy. Prior to Futurism, I worked for publications ranging from Media Matters and Truthdig to Raw Story and Bustle. I'm also the author of "Myspace Scene Queens," a 2024 title in Instar Books' acclaimed "Remember the Internet" series. My work at Futurism has been cited by outlets including the New Yorker, Slate, Nieman Lab, the Verge, the MIT Technology Review, the Sunday Times, and the Daily Beast. I grew up in North Carolina, attended the University of North Carolina at Asheville, and now live in Brooklyn, New York. In my free time, I'm an avid reader and music fan; you can probably find me at a local poetry reading, concert, underground rave, or DJ set. I'm the proud parent of an ineffable orange cat named Mee-Mow. ### Author social links [Bluesky]()
