Style codes come in at IO8201-700 for adults and IQ2368-700 for grade school sizing. Tour yellow covers almost the entire shoe, creating a bold, monochromatic look across the upper and sole. Midnight navy and metallic gold provide the main contrast, breaking up all that yellow with sharper accents.

LeBron debuted the pair during a recent workout, giving fans on-foot shots well before any official product photography. That timing lines up with how Nike has handled most of the LeBron 24 rollout so far, relying on social media teases rather than a traditional unveiling.

The “Chosen 1’s” name ties directly back to one of the most iconic phrases in LeBron’s career. That nickname first stuck decades ago and has followed him ever since, making its way into merchandise, documentaries, and now another signature sneaker.

Nike LeBron 24 “Chosen 1’s”

Long before winning 4 championships or becoming the NBA’s all-time leading scorer, an 18-year-old LeBron appeared on the cover of Sports Illustrated under the headline “The Chosen One.” That single cover helped set the tone for his entire career.

Nike has leaned into that kind of storytelling throughout LeBron’s signature line for years. The LeBron 23 alone released in 23 different colorways, each one tied to a specific milestone or chapter from his career, giving fans a full timeline told through sneakers.

This colorway arrives during a major transition for LeBron off the court too. He recently signed with the Philadelphia 76ers after leaving the Lakers, adding a new layer of interest to everything tied to his signature line right now.

Expect more detail on the “Chosen 1’s” theme as the December release date gets closer. Overall, people are potentially looking at the LeBron 24 as one of his last signature sneakers ever. Demand will be high, so make sure to stay alert if you want to cop a pair.

No official release date or price has been confirmed for this specific pair yet. Given how the rest of the lineup has rolled out, a formal announcement from Adidas likely isn’t too far off. Past colorways have typically carried a $300 price tag, so this one should land somewhere in that same range once pricing gets confirmed.

Layered mesh and exaggerated 3D overlays continue to define the shoe’s design, just like the other Jellyfish colorways. Further, the chunky sculptural midsole remains a key look, still pulling its shape from the movement of an actual jellyfish.

Also, black lace details and the usual Jellyfish branding on the tongue and insole round out the familiar build. That keeps this pair consistent with everything else in the lineup so far.

Given how quickly past colorways have sold out, this one should draw plenty of attention once real release details do surface.

Pharrell x Adidas Adistar Jellyfish

The Adistar Jellyfish has become one of Pharrell’s most talked-about sneaker projects since its 2025 debut. What started as an extremely limited orange release has since grown into a steady stream of new colorways throughout 2025 and into 2026.

Grey and green pairs, a “Triple White” version, and even a “Triple Black” colorway have all released since that original launch. Each one keeps selling out fast, with resale prices routinely climbing well above retail.

That pattern speaks to how much demand still surrounds the silhouette overall. Every new colorway seems to pull in just as much attention as the last, regardless of how loud or subdued the color story is.

With this new grey, green, and blue pair already circulating in photos, it’s likely just the next entry in a lineup that shows no signs of slowing down.

This one has a rocky history behind it. The colorway was originally planned for a December 2024 drop before reportedly getting cancelled altogether. Fans have waited years since then, unsure if it would ever actually surface.

An all-black build covers the shoe from top to bottom, mixing anthracite, black, and off noir tones throughout. Leather panels make up most of the upper, keeping the texture consistent across the entire silhouette. A “23” hit sits on the lateral heel, alongside Nike Air branding stamped onto the back.

Mesh netting on the side panels adds some breathability, while the midsole keeps that same shark-tooth detailing fans expect from the model. Also full family sizing is planned for release, covering adults down through toddler sizes.

Given how long this one sat in question, its return should generate plenty of buzz once release day actually arrives. Leaked images are already circulating well ahead of the confirmed window, a sign of just how much attention this pair has picked up. That kind of early buzz usually points to a tough pair to secure once it actually lands.

Air Jordan 5 “Black Cat”

“Black Cat” has been a recurring theme across Jordan Brand’s lineup for a long time. The name comes from a nickname teammates gave Michael Jordan, describing his quiet yet calculated style on the court.

That triple-black treatment has already hit models like the Air Jordan 3, 4, and 13 in years past. Further, each version leaned into that same stealthy, all-black aesthetic tied to the nickname.

The Air Jordan 5 version has had a bumpier road than most. Getting cancelled once already makes this comeback feel more uncertain than a typical retro release, even with a firm year attached.

Jordan Brand has leaned into these tonal colorways heavily across its catalog. Fans of the darker, more understated builds should have plenty to look forward to once 2027 rolls around.

Wayne laughed and smiled with pride and joy when Carton brought up a game-winning field goal from Dwayne. The young athlete was previously a soccer player before picking up football in the last two years in between seasons.

“Of course, it’s every amazing emotion that you can name,” the rapper said of the opportunity and how he reacted to the news. “But given his situation, he’s a soccer player by nature. So taking up kicking was just something he started doing about two years ago, two summers ago… He, on his own, ended up working out with Marten Andersen’s son. The famous [New Orleans] Saints kicker. I’m like, ‘That’s really kicking.’ That’s not, ‘I’m just doing this while I’m not doing soccer.’ […] His coach told him to come try out, and he made the team at his school… Once he made that team, he did really well. He was recommended to go to the school he’s at now, which is much better for kickers and athletics, period.”

Lil Wayne’s The Joint Venture

Dwayne Carter III debuted for the Gainesville High School team in Georgia during the 2026 season. With the guidance of Hall of Famer Andersen, who holds the record for the most games played by a kicker, the sky is the limit. We’ll see what comes of Dwayne’s career once his time at Gainesville High ends.

Elsewhere, Lil Wayne is feeling frustrated with the NFL. That’s mainly because his beloved Green Bay Packers did not have a good game earlier this week. But Lil Wayne shared other curious sports stories on The Joint Venture, which will hopefully help soften the blow. He revealed the New York Yankees almost sued him over his original Young Money logo.

The No Jumper host reacted on Twitter to a report claiming No Rest For The Wicked is on pace to sell 9K album-equivalent units in its first week. “Kendrick Lamar belongs in prison for what he did to this young man’s rollout,” he wrote.

As for DJ Akademiks, CY Chels and NBA Hoops caught livestream highlights on Twitter of him claiming the pgLang creative pulled his feature verse. However, contrary to what some fans may assume, Akademiks seems to like the alleged approach from Kendrick.

“Kendrick’s a cold n***a. I told you I like how he treat them n***as over there,” Ak said. “He makes sure the West Coast is his coast. There’s only space for one king… I respect it.”

“I think Kendrick’s a boss for that,” he remarked. “Does he tweet the album out? F**k no… Does he shout it out? F**k no… All he does, he gives you a video to put it out on your socials… The way Kendrick treated this n***a is like he paid for a meet-and-greet.”

AZ Chike & Kendrick Lamar

What Adam22 and DJ Akademiks seem to be referring to here is Kendrick Lamar’s advice for AZ Chike during the album’s making. Chike shared a clip of the moment on social media, in which Kendrick said, “Just keep building the motherf***er. Knock them out, just go. Don’t even overthink it. Just go. Have fun with it…”

While this assessment contradicts DJ Akademiks’ previous criticisms of Kendrick Lamar to a degree, the debate rages on over how both artists and media outlets have handled this whole situation.

In any case, fans are loving No Rest For The Wicked, which is the most important part of the equation. Hopefully the best is yet to come.

According to Complex, authorities arrested him after the Florida Highway Patrol conducted a traffic stop on Thursday (September 17). They subsequently put the Florida rapper in the Broward County Main Jail, and his bail was almost $9,000.

He reportedly faces five DUI counts concerning alleged damage to property or another person, four reckless driving charges, and a charge for allegedly operating a motor vehicle without a valid license.

“Bro, I’m literally at home watching the fights,” the “Catch Me Outside” artist said in his IG Story post on Saturday night (September 19). “Like, I been home. It’s not that serious. I barely tapped one person. One. I got out to check on him. Nobody was hurt. That s**t was at four in the morning. I been home.” He also posted a video of him watching the Mauricio Ruffy and Arman Tsarukyan match at UFC 331 from the comfort of his home.

Fans in the comments section under No Jumper‘s coverage of Ski’s response had divided reactions to this response. Some urged him to take the matter more seriously, whereas others made more light of the whole thing. Either way, it seems like everything went relatively without a hitch and this will blow over.

Elsewhere, the Lost Files lyricist is working on a new album and has been teasing material to fans. Hopefully this situation didn’t throw a wrench into things, as die-hards are excited to hear what he could offer fans in this new era.

Ski Mask The Slump God has been through a challenging career, one marked by triumph as well as loss. But he always has more to give. We’ll see if this DUI situation leads to anything else or if it really isn’t that serious, as The Slump God claims.

Livebitez caught a clip of the moment on Instagram, which sees Rocky performing animatedly while Riot sits on his mother’s lap, who enjoys the cut a lot. There were some wholesome moments like the Barbadian superstar kissing their son on the cheek and the Harlem creative handing him the megaphone to thank the crowd and tell them, “What’s up?”

This was great to see, although many fans would like a different type of visual for their family dynamics. There are still demands for R9, and according to Rocky, Rihanna is cooking up new material. However, we’ve heard that for a long time, and none of those teases have manifested into an actual full-length studio return just yet. It’s been a decade since ANTI, and Rocky just broke his own studio album drought with Don’t Be Dumb. Hopefully his boo is next on the list.

A$AP Rocky & Rihanna Onstage

Elsewhere, A$AP Rocky’s “Don’t Be Dumb” tour has yielded some more divisive and controversial moments. Many fans took note of his visuals portraying a rat and an owl in crosshairs, which he later seemed to confirm as disses towards Drake and A$AP Relli.

Rocky’s beef with Drizzy is well-known, whereas the Relli conflict is much more serious. Relli accused Rocky of assault, but he ended up beating that case.

Meanwhile, gossip rumors around A$AP Rocky and Rihanna have also continued to surface, but they all get shut-downs in one way or another. There’s a lot of speculation about them as a superstar couple, but outings like these show they’re happy with the noise.

RiRi and Riot, along with other family members and friends, have shown up to these shows in the past. We’ll see if there are any other cameos before the “Don’t Be Dumb” tour wraps up.

The sneaker itself first released back in February for $170, tied to NBA All-Star Weekend. Premium nubuck covers the molded upper in a deep chocolate brown, replacing the model’s usual neoprene build entirely. A zip closure runs up the front instead of traditional laces, keeping the silhouette clean and streamlined. Gold foil detailing hits the sockliner, adding a subtle touch of shine against all that brown.

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander worked directly with Converse on this version of his signature shoe. It marked the first true luxury execution of the model since it originally launched. That shift toward materials clearly caught Jackson’s attention months after the initial release. Seeing it show up on an NFL sideline speaks to how far that shoe’s reach has traveled since February.

Jackson’s Supreme jersey matched the shoe almost perfectly. Purple lettering spelled out the brand’s name across the chest, with striped sleeves and numbering rounding out the football-inspired design. Pinstripe brown pants and a chain completed the fit.

Tunnel fits like this have become a big part of game day for NFL stars. Jackson in particular has built a reputation for pulling out unexpected sneaker picks before kickoff.

Lamar Jackson’s Week 2 Outfit

The Shai 001 Lux line was a bit of a shift for Converse’s signature basketball category. Moving away from typical performance styling toward a more luxury-driven look opened the shoe up to a wider audience.

Seeing an NFL quarterback in a Converse basketball shoe also says something about how far sneaker culture has spread across sports. Fits like Jackson’s blur the lines between what’s considered a hoops shoe and a true style piece.

Between the Supreme fit and the Shai colorway, Lamar Jackson’s Week 2 look stood out as one of the cleaner tunnel fits of the season so far.

According to the Dallas County Clerk and court documents reportedly obtained by No Jumper on Instagram, the rapper’s next hearing will take place on October 6 of this year in Dallas, Texas. Judge Chika Anyiam will reportedly preside ahead of jury selection later in the month.

Previously, Yella Beezy and his attorneys requested to delay the trial, which had been set for Monday, September 14. The defense team wanted the written record from Kewon White’s trial and had a scheduling conflict with an expert witness they plan to call to court. Prosecutors did not oppose the request, and Judge Anyiam approved.

When Is Yella Beezy’s Trial?

View this post on Instagram

A post shared by No Jumper (@nojumper)

Now, Yella Beezy’s murder-for-hire trial concerning Mo3 will begin with jury selection on October 26, 2026. He has denied the allegations against him.

As mentioned before, Kewon White received a life sentence for the murder of Mo3. But he denied receiving any payment from Beezy following the conviction.

The upcoming trial will presumably focus on a lot of the same evidence, arguments, and narrative both sides of the court clashed over in White’s trial. But there are a lot of important factors to consider for Yella’s case in particular, specifically proof of payment. We will see how both sides of the court respond to this debacle.

Also, there’s a third codefendant in this sprawling Yella Beezy case. Prosecutors alleged Devin Brown was in the car with Kewon White when he killed Mo3. Brown also faces capital murder charges in connection to the Interstate 35 ambush in Dallas.

For now, fans will have to wait for more updates to emerge on or around October 6. This year, the Mo3 murder case could finally wrap up.

“We coming back with a Migos album,” Huncho remarked. “I mean, y’all see us [him and ‘Set] working. Can’t be working just for nothing. So get ready for that. We almost ready to turn it in, too… The anniversary for Migos is January, so you might get something then.”

He also said this album won’t be another Culture installment and teased a tour for this project. Of course, this isn’t an outright confirmation that a new Migos album will have a January 2027 release date. Maybe this would be a good time to formally announce the record, drop a single for it, or celebrate the legacy and return of the group in another way.

This will all still carry a bittersweet sting due to Takeoff’s passing, but the surviving members have done so much to honor his legacy up to this point. So continuing that road seems like a duty they are ready to keep up with.

Quavo Teases Migos Album

Meanwhile, Quavo is looking forward to his new album QRÖMELIFE. He recently revealed the cover art and release date for the album, which will drop in just a few weeks on October 2. With assistance behind the board from Pharrell for the whole project, fans are excited to see where the Atlanta MC goes with this.

It already got the singles “Backwards” with T.I., “Trance (Walk It Down),” and “HAAVIN,” which pleased many listeners. Still, a lot of fans prefer the Migos as a group rather than their solo endeavors, so the prospect of a new album with Quavo and Offset’s continued creativity bodes well.

Some fans thought Quavo might change labels amid these LPs thanks to a proposition from Young Thug. But the Migos rapper clarified they’re just looking for newer generations of talent. With all these creative endeavors in mind, a new album from the group honoring Takeoff and celebrating their legacy could be one of the big moments of 2027.
