“To cover a timeless classic of A Tribe Called Quest’s record is an honor to be trusted to present it. I spoke with Q-Tip to let him know that—because the original is already a masterpiece,” said DJ Premier.

Last week, the Twitch legend came through with a list of students and professors. On the professor’s side, people like Lizzo and Pokimane will be teaching classes. Meanwhile, as far as the students are concerned, the admissions mostly include smaller creators looking to get their feet in the door. However, Kai did include superstars like PlaqueBoyMax, presumably because those creators will bring in numbers.

As you can imagine, there are a ton of creators feeling left out right now. FunnyMike, Ray, and Rakai are some of the streamers who have called out Cenat for keeping them off the list. Now, Cenat is clapping back with a diss track.

Kai Cenat Has Some Targets

In this new track, Cenat tells those who didn’t make the cut that they are “not worthy.” It is a harsh statement to make, although it’s a statement that isn’t exactly surprising either. After all, a diss track isn’t supposed to be respectful of people’s feelings.

Ultimately, this is all content that serves to promote Streamer University. Cenat and Rakai are going to remain friends regardless. Besides, they will probably try to crash the Streamer University party anyway.

Streamer University officially begins on Wednesday, July 15, and will run until Monday, July 20. There will be 120 students participating as streams will go on throughout each day. You will be able to watch this all on Twitch.

Both come dressed in a glossy blue patent leather upper. Red Jumpman logos appear on the Mid version for contrast. Howard’s Bison head logo sits on the tongue of each. These cleats will not be sold to the public.

They’re reserved strictly for Howard’s football program this season. Howard has worked with Jordan Brand since signing a deal in 2022. That partnership made Howard the only HBCU outfitted directly by the brand.

Programs like Michigan and Oklahoma also receive similar custom Jumpman cleats. Howard opens its season on August 29th against Alabama A&M. That game is part of the Cricket MEAC/SWAC Challenge in Atlanta.

It also marks new head coach Ted White’s first game back. White is a former Howard quarterback returning to lead his alma mater. He still holds several of the school’s all-time passing records.

Fans are probably expecting these Air Jordan 11 cleats to debut that day. The reveal adds another chapter to Howard’s growing Jordan Brand history. It’s one more example of the school’s exclusive sneaker relationship standing out.

Howard University Football Player Exclusives

Howard’s Air Jordan 11 cleats lean into the shoe’s signature patent leather finish. That glossy build gives both pairs a sharp look under stadium lights.

Full patent leather isn’t always practical for warm summer football weather. Still, it keeps these cleats visually consistent with past Howard Jordan releases. Howard has received several other Jordan Brand PEs since the 2022 deal began.

Past drops have included versions of the Jordan 1, 4, and 10. A retail Air Jordan 1 Low tied to Howard is also expected later this year.

Together, these releases show how far the partnership has grown. Howard remains one of the only HBCUs with this level of Jordan Brand access. That access keeps expanding each season with new player-exclusive designs.

While thousands of fans had made it into the Stadium safely, thousands of others were left in the dark. This subsequently led to a three-hour concert delay. Instead of starting at 9:15 PM EST, Hov only got on stage at 12:15 AM EST.

Some fans were only let in halfway through the show, and the anger was palpable. During the show, JAŸ-Z revealed that security had to close the doors because fans were rushing the gates. People without tickets were finding their way into the venue, and something needed to be done.

JAŸ-Z Reveals What Happened

As fans waited for JAŸ-Z to take the stage, “refund” chants echoed throughout Yankee Stadium. For a second there, it was believed that the show could just be straight up canceled. After all, New York City has a concert curfew of 11 PM EST. Now, Hov will have to pay a hefty fine for going over the time limit. Although, seeing as though this is a Yankee Stadium issue, he might get a pass.

Fans Want Refunds

The calls for refunds extended to social media. Even fans who got into the show seemingly want a refund for their troubles. After all, they went through a horrific experience outside of the gates. Not to mention, there were some who had to miss part of the show because of all this. While nights one and two went smoothly, it’s clear that this was a bit of a mess, to put it bluntly.

However, once the festivities began, Hov did not disappoint. He performed some of the biggest songs in his catalog, all while bringing out a superstar list of guests. Rihanna, Beyoncé, Usher, Clipse, Pharrell, and many more took the stage with JAŸ-Z last night. It was an incredible moment for the fans in the Stadium, and it seemed to be well worth the delay.

However, once the show began, JAŸ-Z did not disappoint. He brought out a phenomenal array of guests, including the likes of Rihanna, Beyoncé, Jadakiss, Fat Joe, Clipse, Pharrell, Teyana Taylor, Swizz Beatz, and more.

The setlist was a mix of some of Hov’s biggest hits and features, and songs performed by his esteemed guests. It was a memorable night, and despite the delays, some might say it was the best night of the three.

The post JAŸ-Z’s Setlist for “Extra Innings” Yankee Stadium Show appeared first on HotNewHipHop.

Tonight, Hov is wrapping up his Yankee Stadium concert series with some Extra Innings. This has fans intrigued in terms of what direction he will go. There has been speculation about who he might bring out. Some believe Jeezy and Kendrick Lamar are in play. Unfortunately, there is a chance that we might not know tonight.

We say this because the situation at Yankee Stadium is dire right now. According to concertgoers on site at Yankee Stadium, security has shut down the gates. No one can get through, and thousands of people have been stuck outside for hours.

Fans inside the stadium were told that the concert would be delayed until everyone with a ticket could get into the venue. However, there is one big issue here. There is a curfew for shows in New York City, and it’s 11 PM. At the time of writing this, that is in 20 minutes from now.

JAŸ-Z Fans Are Not Happy

This is quite concerning, especially since JAŸ-Z has yet to perform a single song. There is a very real possibility that the show is canceled altogether. However, the hope is that security can figure it out, and some exceptions can be made.

Fans have traveled from far and wide to see Hov perform, and now, the stadium’s security is making the process a lot more complicated than it needs to be. At this time, security has not explained these delays. Although fans online have speculated that the gates closed due to unticketed fans trying to hop the gate.

Stay tuned to HNHH for all of the latest news and updates from around the music world.

The mockup fades from a rich magenta near the top down to pale pink. That same gradient carries through onto the see-through outsole. Also a white Nike swoosh breaks up the pink on the side panel. Black detailing on the midsole keeps the design grounded a bit.

So far, nothing about this has come from Nike directly. That means it’s a concept mockup, not a confirmed release. Foamposites have leaned into pink before, just not quite like this. Pairs like the “Pearlized Pink” came out years back. Those releases used more of a solid metallic pink finish.

This gradient version takes a different approach with its fading colors. Nike has also played with gradient effects on other Foamposite colorways. That history makes this concept feel plausible, even without confirmation.

For now, sneaker fans are left speculating about a possible release. Whether Nike ever picks up this design stays completely unclear. Mockups like this also tend to pop up long before anything gets confirmed. Overall, sometimes they turn into real pairs, and sometimes they just fade out.

Nike Air Foamposite One “Pink Gradient”

The Foamposite One first dropped back in 1997, designed by Eric Avar. Its molded upper set it apart from other basketball shoes at launch.

Since then, Nike has used the model for bold, unusual colorways. Camo, floral, and metallic finishes have all shown up over the years. A gradient effect fits right into that same experimental tradition. Going from deep magenta into a soft pink feels true to foams.

The black midsole strip stops the design from looking too muted. Concepts like this usually spark conversation before anything moves forward officially. Sometimes brands run with fan ideas, and sometimes nothing comes of it. Either way, it shows pink Foamposites still have plenty of interest ahead.
