The shoe is being brought back by the Virgil Abloh Archive, not Off-White. That distinction matters more than it might seem at first glance. The Abloh family cut ties with Off-White back in 2022. This release will carry “V.A.A. for Nike” branding instead, marking a new chapter entirely.

The sneaker itself is described as nearly identical to the original 2018 version. It was the shoe that Abloh himself said started everything with Nike. He considered it a foundational object, almost like a design manifesto in sneaker form. Getting it back into people’s hands was clearly important to the people running his archive.

Before the April 3rd wide release, special early drops are planned. ComplexCon Hong Kong on March 21st and 22nd will be one of the first stops. This gives international fans a chance to be part of the moment early. The energy building around this drop is unlike anything in recent sneaker memory.

Air Jordan 1 Off White

The Virgil Abloh Archive x Air Jordan 1 “Alaska” is an all-white sneaker that is deceptively simple at first glance. The entire upper is dressed in clean white leather, giving it a blank canvas quality that feels intentional.

Abloh’s signature design moves are present throughout, including a deconstructed Swoosh and transparent detailing. Quotation marks around the word “AIR” on the midsole are one of the shoe’s most recognizable touches.

Also the shoe is known for yellowing naturally over time, which only adds to its character. A zine featuring Abloh’s original sketches is included with the release. It is a collector’s piece that doubles as a wearable piece of design history.

Also the retail price of these will be $230 when they are released.

Rather, many people on social media platforms like Twitter have a problem with her reactions to wins throughout the ceremony. According to Bossip, the consensus opinion these folks reached was that she was being over the top and acting extra.

One person even went as far as to say, “Teyana Taylor is so annoying.” That post had 18,000 likes when the outlet’s article went up. Proof to back up their argument was her standing up and cheering for Amy Madigan.

The latter took home Best Supporting Actress for her role in Weapons, which just so happened to be the lone category Taylor was nominated in. But even though she didn’t take home the hardware, she was happy for her contemporary regardless.

For some reason, though, that didn’t sit well with these folks.

Others pointed to her wrapping her arm around the neck of her One Battle After Another director Paul Thomas Anderson while they went to the stage to accept their award for Best Picture.

Teyana Taylor Oscars Security Guard Confrontation

Eventually, Teyana heard enough slander and decided to respond gracefully to these detractors, all things considered. “The world holds so much misery that miserable hearts forget the face of happiness. They grow comfortable being sore losers, so when they see real sportsmanship it unsettles them! Like holy water touching a demon. Because clapping for someone else’s victory requires something many people never learned… how to win with grace & pure joy, and how to lose with grace, chin up & dignity.”

While she was unapologetic for her actions and love for her fellow contestants, the Academy was the opposite. After hearing reports of her physical altercation with a security guard blocking her from joining her castmates onstage for a photo after the show, they came forth with an apology to the actress.

“We were extremely upset to learn about the experience endured by Teyana Taylor at the end of the Oscars ceremony last night. We have worked with Teyana over the last several months during awards season, and she has been nothing short of remarkable, supportive, kind, and all about community. Though the incident was with our outside security firm SIS, the experience of every single guest is our responsibility. We have made it clear to them that this behavior is not acceptable.”

They concluded, “We want to thank Teyana for showing remarkable grace, and we are taking the appropriate measures to ensure this does not happen again.”

The legal battle began making headlines, earlier this month, when Farm Credit Mid-America claimed that Jay-Z’s venture capital firm, MarcyPen Capital Partners, lent money to Uncle Nearest, but Weaver transferred it to Grant Sidney to avoid seizure.

“The Weaver Parties attempt to imply (incorrectly) that FCMA was in no way misled at the time. FCMA was considerably misled,” the bank wrote, according to Lexington Herald Leader. “Whatever protestations Ms. Weaver makes now to the contrary do not change the fact that MarcyPen loaned money to Uncle Nearest, Inc., not Grant Sidney. Ms. Weaver, who exercises complete control over Uncle Nearest and Grant Sidney, moved the proceeds from Uncle Nearest to Grant Sidney to make sure that $20 million coming in could not be snatched by [FCMA].”

Uncle Nearest Lawsuit Update

Citing intercompany agreements, Weaver argues that the transfer was a standard procedure and not an attempt to avoid payment. “Grant Sidney received no benefit from this $20,000,000. It solely went to the benefit of Uncle Nearest,” her lawyer wrote.

Overall, Farm Credit Mid-America has hit Uncle Nearest with a bevy of allegations. They claim the company defaulted on over $100 million in loans. On top of that, they alleged Uncle Nearest exaggerated the inventory of their barrels, sold off collateral inventory to cover other debts, and violated key financial covenants. Weaver denies these claims as well.

They believe that because of the jury’s result, Judge Arun Subramanian, the man responsible for the sentence, punished him harder even though Mann Act violations typically aren’t as severe. To be more specific, Diddy’s team says the sentence is roughly four times higher than normal for incidents like these.

Overall, his lawyers believe this is a “perversion of justice.” This a stance that the Bad Boy CEO’s team has held since the trial last summer. After the sentencing in October, they claimed Subramanian acted as a “thirteenth juror.”

When Is Diddy Getting Out Of Prison?

Elsewhere in the appeal, they request said court faction to order an “immediate release and grant a judgment of acquittal or at least vacate and remand for resentencing.”

This all comes just about three weeks or so away from when Diddy will appear in court to argue his side. Last month, his request to expedite his appeal was granted. Instead of taking dozens of months to fight back, he will now be in a courthouse by April 9.

What’s also good news for Diddy is that his projected release date has been bumped up. As of earlier this month, it’s now April 25, 2028. Initially, May 8 of that year was what it was set at. However, it was briefly bumped back to June 4, 2028.

“It’s a great honor, right,” RZA said, as caught by Billboard. “To know that there’s some inspiration from the Wu that entered their hearts and have them name their child after the Abbot, that’s a blessing, bro. I always say that the RZA is not just a name. It’s also a title. I’m rooting for him.”

A$AP Rocky and Rihanna’s first son is only one of three children they share. In addition to RZA, who was born in May 2022, they have a second son, Riot, who was born in August 2023, and a daughter, Rocki, who they welcomed in 2025.

RZA’s comments come after police arrested a woman by the name of Ivanna Lisette Ortiz for allegedly firing 10 gunshots at Rihanna and A$AP Rocky’s home in Beverly Hills, earlier this month. Rocky and Rihanna hid in a camper in the driveway during the attack. Authorities charged Ortiz with attempted murder as well as 10 counts of assault on a person with a semiautomatic firearm and three counts of shooting at an inhabited vehicle or dwelling.

“Rihanna was there with her partner, her three children, her mother, and two staff people, representing eight of the 10 of the counts of dealing with an assault with a semi-automatic firearm,” Nathan Hochman, Los Angeles County District Attorney, said at a press conference. “In addition, Ms. Ortiz is accused of firing at a neighboring residence that had two additional individuals.”

In a video caught by XXL, he says, “This man dissed me for a year-and-a-half straight. Ain’t none of y’all n****s tell this man to shut up.”

The caption of the video echoes that sentiment. “TO THE MUSIC PEOPLE WHO WE BOTH GOT RELATIONSHIPS WITH WHY YALL AINT TELL HIM NOTHING? YALL HAD A YEAR N A HALF TO TELL HIM SOMETHING? WHY YALL AINT CALL HIM SMH YALL CONFUSING ME CAUSE PEACE IS PEACE IF YALL REALLY SEARCHING FOR IT RIGHT.”

Boosie adds, “I SAID WHAT I SAID N MOVED ON THIS N**** KEPT IT GOING FOR ALMOST 2 YEARS LOL NOW I NEED TO BE THE BIGGER MAN!! WHAT A WORLD. WHAT YALL THINK ABOUT THESE DUDES N THE MUSIC INDUSTRY?”

Why Are Kodak Black & Boosie Badazz Beefing?

However, his frustrations seemed to turn into some sympathy and understanding. On Sunday, Boosie Badazz caught wind of a concerning post regarding his Florida rival.

While onstage at some concert, Kodak Black was doing nothing but spinning in circles with a black shirt/towel over his head. On top of this, the “ZEZE” rapper wasn’t singing or rapping into the microphone, making for a troubling watch all around.

Despite sending some pretty harsh roasts his way about his alleged drug addictions, Badazz took a moment to realize maybe he really does need to give him a break. “THIS AINT COOL SMH I MIGHT NEED TO LEAVE DUDE ALONE BEFORE HE TAKE HIS SELF OUT!!” Boosie captioned his repost of the clip. “WHAT YALL THINK?”

As we said, him and his younger counterpart had been going at each other for the last week on social media. It started last weekend after the latter disrupted the former’s Instagram Live. Overall, their beef began earlier this decade after Kodak linked with 6ix9ine for a song, someone who’s faced tons of snitching allegations thanks to the Nine Trey Bloods case.

“I’m just happy and grateful to be back and thankful that my fans didn’t forget about me. I’m so thankful to my family, fans and team for holding me down,” Fetty said in a statement provided to Billboard. “This new music is a reflection of a new chapter in my life. I just want to bring back good energy and good vibes. I love y’all.”

Along with the announcement, Fetty shared a cinematic trailer for the album with a more serious tone. “When you lose the money everybody think that’s the worst part,” Fetty says in the black-and-white clip. “When it get real quiet that’s when it hit different. I got so used to hearing Fetty everywhere I go, before I even knew who Zavier was. Somewhere in all that, I became a character in my own life. People really loved what I could provide for real, not who I really was.”

Fetty Wap’s Prison Sentence

Fetty spent three years in prison on drug trafficking charges before his release. Police originally arrested him at Citi Field in Queens, New York, where he was scheduled to perform at Rolling Loud.

Appearing on The Breakfast Club, earlier this year, he explained that he doesn’t want to focus on his time behind bars with his new music. “Honestly, I don’t feel like that’s important,” Fetty remarked. “I did my time. It’s a lot of rappers that went to jail – I mean, I hate to say it like that – that came home. If they chose to talk about their jail s**t, that’s them. Me, I did my time with the guys and then, they all, ‘Leave this s**t behind you. When you walk out, leave it here. We trying to see you on TV.’ In jail, it’s three things that you don’t turn the TV [off] from: sports, news, Love & Hip Hop.”

“‘We want to see you on TV, we trying to hear you on the radio. In 20 days, I want to hear something new on the computer,'” he continued. “That’s the type of motivation I was having. So to come home and to talk about that s**t, it’s pointless. I did my time in there. […] [My writing] will change, I guess. It’s always going to change, especially when you’re trying to be creative. I just feel like I appreciate music more.”

Caught by Complex Neo begins, “Thankfully I’m legally fine in every way, AND BOI DO I GOT ALL MY RECIEPTS FOR THINGS HAHAHAHA.”

He then discusses the probe which he was called in for by a Los Angeles court.

“I think the worst part is that I’ve told so many people that I trust and I thought knew me as a person my side of things, all for that to be thrown out the fkin window as soon as I get arrested and they slap that d*ckheads name next to mine.”

Here, he seems to be referring to d4vd here, perhaps even suggesting that he may be guilty.

Was d4vd Charged With Celeste Rivas’ Murder?

Neo Langston then continues on about his arrest/court appearance. “And for the record, the thing I was arrested for wasn’t even charged. They never filed it and my warrant was retracted because there is more to the story then what’s on the news.”

If you remember, Langston was handcuffed in Helena, Montana in January over dodging this call to court. But not too long after being sent over to the Los Angeles’ Metropolitan Detention Center, Langston satisfied a $60,000 bail.

On February 4, the streamer would speak with the grand jury on the case for about 30-40 minutes.

Another big development in this tragic story is that d4vd is the “target” in this puzzling case. Last month, unsealed court documents revealed that the “Romantic Homicide” talent is suspected of murdering Rivas. He’s yet to be formally charged with any crime but it’s something to watch moving forward.

“Mob Ties the worst deal I ever signed,” he began. “I should’ve just went to Atlantic by myself. Why is it motherf*ckers that ain’t got no hits, ain’t accomplished nothing, how the f*ck are they getting in these rooms I ain’t getting in. I got gold plaques and sh*t… All this talent is just going to waste. At this point, this is slavery. Let me out. Let me go. I don’t wanna do the album no more.” Finesse2Tymes has had several commercially successful songs over the years, including his 2022 track, “Back End,” which was certified gold by the RIAA.

When DJ Akademiks shared the video on Instagram, Finesse2Tymes popped up in the comments section to add: “I ain’t looking for not sympathy u live and u learn but I pictured a life wayyy better than this. It is what it is. We live and we learn.”

Other fans shared supportive messages. “He showing all the artist why it’s important to stay independent it might take a little longer but at least it’ll be worth it,” one user wrote. Another added: “Say what you want, but finesse really can rap. They really wasting his talent.”

Finesse2Tymes’ Beef With Offset

In other news, Finesse2Tymes made headlines outside of his music for feuding with Offset, earlier this year. That tension began when Finesse2tymes weighed in on Cardi B‘s relationship with her then-boyfriend, Stefon Diggs. He described the New England Patriots star as “that n***a that hit Offset’s b*tch.” Offset fired back: “B*tch a** n***a don’t say my name.” The exchange eventually escalated with Finesse2Tymes threatening to punch the Migos rapper.
