It's The Boombap

The Jordan Tatum 3 "Tie Dye" mixes flair and function in one of the boldest looks yet for Jayson Tatum's signature line. This version drapes the performance-driven silhouette in a vibrant tie-dye upper that blends swirling hues of blue, pink, and violet across the mesh build.

With powder blue accents on the laces, lining, and outsole, the sneaker balances playful energy with clean contrasts. Under the hood, you still get Zoom Air in the forefoot and a stable, sculpted sole for game-time performance.

Tatum's signature line with Jordan Brand has been steadily gaining traction, with each release pushing the boundaries between performance and personal style. The "Tie Dye" colorway leans into that expressive side. It embraces individuality while staying true to the tech specs that players depend on.

It's the kind of shoe that works just as well in a tunnel fit as it does on the hardwood. From the photos, you can really see how the fluid lines on the upper mirror the natural movement of dye in water. It's not just a loud colorway, it's a design statement.

The Jordan Tatum 3 "Tie Dye" features a colorful mesh upper wrapped in a swirling mix of pastel tones. The design plays with gradients of blue, pink, and purple to mimic a true tie-dye effect.

Also, a powder blue tongue, laces, and lining keep the color story consistent. An orange Jumpman adds a sharp contrast on the lateral side, while a sculpted sail midsole with icy blue pods grounds the look.

On the heel, bold "Cloud 0" branding nods to Tatum's light-footed game. Finally, a translucent outsole rounds it out with subtle flair and court-ready grip.

The Air Jordan 1 High OG "Self Expression" delivers a bold twist on one of the most iconic sneaker silhouettes of all time. With a wear-away leather upper, this pair gradually sheds its all-black outer shell to reveal a burst of rainbow colors underneath making each pair one-of-one.

This isn't just a sneaker it's a canvas that evolves with time, wear, and personality. Also, this concept taps into a long history of self-expression embedded in sneaker culture. Of course the Air Jordan 1 is no stranger to it.

First released in 1985, the AJ1 was Michael Jordan's debut signature shoe and sparked a cultural shift. Its legacy has endured through countless retros, collaborations, and innovations. The "Self Expression" colorway builds on that foundation. It offers something fresh while paying tribute to the model's roots in individuality and rebellion.

The included hangtag explains it all: the sneaker is meant to change. The upper is built to flake off naturally, adding layers of color and character with every step.

What starts as a sleek black exterior peels away to reveal vibrant hits of green, yellow, purple, and more. The end result is a personal statement written in leather and color.

This Air Jordan 1 High OG features a black leather upper with a hidden multicolor layer underneath. Further, designed to wear away over time, the finish reveals bold shades of red, green, purple, yellow, and blue.

Also, a final white base sits beneath the colorful paint, offering three tiers of visual change. Sail laces and midsoles balance the vibrant chaos, while the outsole keeps things grounded in classic black.

Each pair comes with a hangtag noting the flake-away finish, emphasizing the idea of transformation. Overall, this isn't just a sneaker it's a work in progress meant to be lived in.

Sneaker Bar Detroit reports that the Air Jordan 1 High OG "Self Expression" is going to drop on July 12th, 2025. Also, the retail price will be $185 when they are released.

The Kobe Bryant x Nike Air Force 1 Low "White" is officially back in the spotlight. Also known as the "Kobe Forever" or "Triple White," this clean-cut tribute sneaker made an early appearance on Nike.com on June 30, 2025, where it quickly sold out.

Fortunately, a wider release is confirmed for July 1 via Foot Locker and other major retailers, giving fans another shot. Priced at $130, the pair continues Nike's ongoing celebration of Kobe's legacy with a fresh, minimal execution that quietly commands attention.

Design-wise, this is a classic. The white-on-white Air Force 1 gets a subtle makeover through luxury materials and nods to the Black Mamba himself. The snakeskin texture across the leather upper isn't just a visual detail, it's a callout to Kobe's on-court alter ego.

From the stitched 8 and 24 on each heel to the "Mamba Forever" dubraes, it's a love letter more than a loud statement. In the photos, the sneaker comes to life. You can spot the texture in the leather, the softness in the stitching, and the sheen from the silver dubraes.

This isn't just a Kobe sneaker it's an elevated Air Force 1 that reflects everything he stood for: simplicity, precision, and excellence.

This pair features an all-white premium leather upper with subtle snakeskin embossing across the mid panels and heel. Further, classic AF1 construction stays intact with perforated toe boxes and clean panel stitching.

Kobe's sheath logo appears debossed on the heel, while his jersey numbers 8 and 24 are stitched into the backs of each shoe. Also, a white midsole and rubber outsole round out the build.

The tongue remains classic with tonal branding, and metallic "Mamba Forever" lace dubraes add a final touch of tribute. The minimalist design is balanced by sharp details and a legacy-rich story.

The Saucony Grid Jazz 9 "Scorpion" was officially revealed by Westside Gunn during Paris Fashion Week, and it's already turning heads. This bold collaboration merges the legacy of Saucony's performance runners with Gunn's sharp eye for style and symbolism.

The all-red sneaker leans heavy into texture, showcasing reptile-inspired leather, mesh detailing, and quilted panels. Westside Gunn's signature scorpion motif replaces the usual Saucony logo, marking this pair as deeply personal and unapologetically unique.

A gold chain hangtag featuring a scorpion adds even more personality to an already attention-grabbing sneaker. While Saucony isn't typically the first name in rap collaborations, Gunn's entry into the sneaker world feels earned.

As the face of Griselda Records, he's always had a distinct fashion sense that fuses high fashion, streetwear, and gritty authenticity. This sneaker continues that vision.

In the images, Gunn is seen smiling while presenting the shoes to an intrigued crowd. The "Scorpion" colorway might just mark a new lane for Saucony as it taps into artist-led storytelling and design.

The Saucony Grid Jazz 9 "Scorpion" arrives in a tonal red palette packed with layered textures. It features snake-like leather overlays, mesh panels, and suede sections throughout.

Also, a bold scorpion design replaces the classic Saucony logo, embroidered prominently on the side. The same motif appears on a translucent hangtag in black. Further, the tongue, heel, and collar area include faux pony hair for a rugged yet elevated finish.

The outsole and midsole stick with the all-red treatment, giving the shoe a unified look. Westside Gunn branding on the heel completes this fearless and unapologetic collaboration.

Sneaker News reports that Westside Gunn's Saucony Grid Jazz 9 "Scorpion" currently has no release plans. Stay tuned for any upcoming release information on the date or the price.

Beyonce tends to be one of the most polarizing musicians year in and year out, and this year was no exception. Some people, including a healthy number of country music fans were irate over her bluegrass/country record, COWBOY CARTER. Not only did it take Album of the Year at the GRAMMYs, but she also won the Country Album of the Year category.

This caused many to respond with great negativity and questioned just how authentic the record was to the genre. These days, though, the term "genre" is a lot looser than what it used to be with so many artists shattering molds every other day it seems.

The album controversially went without a single nomination at the Academy of Country Music Awards, as well. But even without that recognition, the album is still performing well on streaming services and hanging on chart wise too. Per a screenshot from The Neighborhood Talk, COWBOY CARTER remains a top three album on Apple Music.

This is grinding the gears of country singer, Gavin Adcock. He was also caught by the outlet going off on Bey at a recent show. In the clip, he claims that he's "coming for her f*cking a*s" on said chart. That resulted in plenty of cheers from the crowd.

"That sh*t ain't country music, and ain't even been country music," he said while raising a bottle of alcohol. While some might say that the booze gave him the confidence to say that with his chest out, Adcock doubled down in a video after the show.

He did make it clear that he remembers Beyonce's Super Bowl Halftime Show being "kick ass" and that he's listened to a lot of her material. But that doesn't mean he's not upset about how an artist like him, "who's dedicated their whole life" to the genre, have to compete with her on the charts.

It will be interesting to see if and when she reacts, but she's too busy right now at the moment. Beyonce is in the midst of wrapping up the album's tour as eight shows remain. Washington D.C, Atlanta, and Las Vegas are the last markets she has to hit up.

Mia X is one of No Limit Records' most iconic artists, and one of the most anticipated guests at Master P's final performance at the Essence Festival on July 6 in New Orleans. Or at least, she was an anticipated guest, as she recently announced that she pulled out of the performance.

According to AllHipHop, Mia's statement on social media alleges mismanagement, poor communication, disrespect, no formal agreement, and failure to provide proper compensation for the appearance. Discussions around her involvement allegedly began last week despite promo material announcing her participation well in advance.

"It's still unbelievable that I'm actually saying this," the veteran femcee wrote in part. "At first, his management didn't want to entertain my performance fee. So it was agreed that I wouldn't be a part of the show. I talked to P on the 26th of June. He explained the lack of and miscommunication was due to his busy schedule. I felt disrespected because the show had been booked for many months. And I had been advertised as a featured artist. There was a clash because of my concern about the short time and no schedule in place for rehearsals, no contract, no deposit, and the fear of a repeat of 2018 [another Essence Fest No Limit performance issue]."

From there, the "Vax That Thang Up" spitter alleged that she received an insufficient contract on June 27. "And I was also still insulted by the dismissal of my fair fee, considering Essence paid big. I'm quiet about a lot of things and I keep family squabbling in-house. But this is about business, names, brands, and the fans," she alleged.

Also, Mia X expressed anger at Essence for allegedly using her name without the proper permission and alleged miscommunication concerning Master P's camp. To Mia, it seems like amid this final performance prep, the New Orleans legend's team allegedly did not plan to compensate her.

"I work in sickness and in health, and I appreciate the support from the people who have enjoyed my music over the years," she wrote. "I stand by doing good business, and I've been done dirty. And that PR spin before even speaking to me is diabolical. Again, I'm sorry to all expecting to see me, and I hope you enjoy your festival weekend."

Benny the Butcher dissed Freddie Gibbs on his new collaboration with Austin Sour and Rain910, "Position of Power," continuing a years-long feud between the two rappers. The release comes after Gibbs called out Benny on his own recent single, "The Big 2." Gibbs dropped that track back in March, also targeting J Cole and JPEGMAFIA as well.

On the new effort, Benny raps: "Rumors back home that we took some jewels / Some sh*t that don't even cost a 'B' on my chain. Benny the Butcher the reason these rappers can't eat in this lane." Back in 2022, Benny allegedly stole Gibbs' necklace during an altercation in Buffalo, New York.

On "The Big 2," Gibbs took several shots at Benny, at one point referencing the sales of his Def Jam debut Everybody Can't Go. "My naked ass got more promo than your album / Man, this really ain't no challenge," he raps.

Benny the Butcher and Freddie Gibbs have been feuding since 2021. At the time, Gibbs made a joke about Benny getting shot in the leg during a robbery attempt. Benny previously confirmed that he has no interest in burying the hacket with Gibbs during an appearance on The Breakfast Club back in 2024, as caught by Complex. "Hell no," he said at the time. "You don't do that sh*t to people you cool with, and that's just it. I really don't have no problem with him. He never done nothing to me in life. I have no problem with him. It's just that I would be goofy. And the people I make my music for would look at me goofy if I would stand next to him."

In November of last year, Benny was spotted hanging out with Gibbs's ex-girlfriend, Destini Fox. "I'll tell you why. I almost cracked up laughing but I gave her chain back. That's the homegirl. I'm really a nice guy. I gave her her chain back," he said on The Breakfast Club when asked about the situation. "Then she came to my birthday party. That's it. She was caught in the middle of some shit she had nothing to do with. She probably thought I was the devil, but she get to see that I'm a really nice guy, and that's it. Nothing more. Nothing less."

We may know why Frank Ocean is nowhere close to making a full return to music. He's too busy supporting his rumored partner, Payton Talbott. The singer and UFC athlete have propelled speculation for about a year or so and the former just did so again. In a screenshot caught by Rap TV, they caught Frank reacting to the bantamweight fighter's victory at card 317.

He posted Talbott imposing his will onto his opponent, Felipe Lima, with a loudly crying face emoji and red heart emoji as the caption. Some were making jokes in the comments section, suggesting that Frank Ocean was making a sexual innuendo given the position that Talbott was in in the photo.

"Bro practiced that move w him [two lougly crying face emojis]" one user writes. "Nahh frank taught him that move," adds another.

Ocean had every right to be happy for his rumored boo though as Talbott is still growing as a fighter. As caught by Sports Illustrated, the exciting prospect was proud of the result and how he felt in the ring. "Big weight lifted off my shoulders. Feels good to know that I can improve during a fight... And just stick to the cause. It felt like I showed up as my best self tonight."

He added, "This is probably the biggest win. It makes me feel the most like a fighter that I've ever felt... I love the push and pull, and peeling people's layers. All of it."

But as for the gossipy angle of this story, Ocean and Talbott were first considered to be thing last summer. They were seen having a meal together and enjoying each other's company.

Then, earlier this year, Frank posted Payton on his Instagram Story for Valentine's Day. At this point, things seem to be real between them, but they have yet to formally make it official.

Elsewhere, though, the elusive artist made headlines in his industry by releasing the long-awaited vinyl for his 2012 record, channel ORANGE. Similar to the pressing Blonde, this was highly anticipated. Frank charged $69 for it and as you could imagine, fans scrambled to purchase it. At the time of writing, it's now sold out.

The Young Money days may be behind us for the most part, but the bond between Lil Wayne, Drake, and Nicki Minaj remains strong and firm. However, these artists haven't linked up on wax as much as some fans plead for... And they hope some new social media activity means that this will change.

As caught by The Shade Room on Instagram, Drizzy recently took to his IG Story to share an old picture of the Queen of the Barbz out of context. There isn't anything about this photo that really says much at the end of the day, but its randomness gave some fans hope. Maybe this means they're cooking something up in the studio, but at the end of the day, this is just wishful thinking.

Still, the possibility of a reunion is never out of the question, as both MCs continue to praise each other. Also, there are some upcoming releases that might hold a space for this hypothetical collab.

We're talking about the new Drake album coming at some point in the near future, which many fans believe is called ICEMAN. Others think this is just a new persona and not a rollout or album title, but we're happy to find out whenever the 6ix God is ready.

For those unaware, Nicki Minaj and Drake's collaborative history contains some of the best tracks from either superstar. "Moment 4 Life," "Only," "Seeing Green," "Make Me Proud," "No Frauds," and "Up All Night" are still beloved cuts that show off a lot of chemistry.

Their most recent musical link-up was 2023's "Needle" on Pink Friday 2, which was more of a dancehall record. As such, this history doesn't even box their styles in, which is a risky but nonetheless exciting tendency.

Meaanwhile, Nicki Minaj is also doing some recent reminiscing. She recently spoke to the Barbz about her beef with her former manager Deb Antney. They buried the hatchet over some disagreements here and there, and even defended each other after these rifts. If Drake and Nicki are ever in a rough spot, they will probably hash it out with similar grace.

In the world of celebrity relationships, breakup/divorce rumors are always going to be active. Pictures that paint the couple in a relatively negative light make it incredibly easy for people to speculate and drive certain narratives. Unfortunately for Justin Bieber and Hailey Bieber, they have been put through the ringer like plenty of other couples have.

Things have escalated as of late, especially with the singer's recent crash outs and posts on social media. More on that in a second though because a TikTok caught by TMZ may quell some of the noise for a bit. In the video below, Justin and Hailey were seen at a Martin Garrix concert in Los Angeles over the weekend.

The clip shows the Biebers dancing and vibing to the DJs music in what looks to be a VIP section. The mother of one even sports a big smile while dancing with her husband. After that, it cuts to Justin and Hailey posing for some photos with the former wrapping his arm around her in a loving manner.

As we said, this clip follows more speculation that they could be nearing a divorce. They have been fueled by JB mostly with one clip in particular convincing some.

He reposted a video of man joking about giving a "b*tch" the silent treatment, potentially referring to Hailey. "B***h, if you giving me a silent treatment, at least tell me why! I have anxiety and I have overthinking. Left and right, they go hand in hand. If you give me any room for error, there will be error! Now you cheated!" the man shouts.

Of course, this doesn't mean much in the grand scheme of things, but in today's day and age, it sure does. What also drove the narrative of an assumed split was Hailey walking around NYC without her wedding ring.

Hopefully, the couple is ignoring all of the drama in the media and living their lives on their own terms.
