The Air Jordan 5 “White Metallic” features a clean white leather upper throughout the entire shoe. Subtle grey accents provide tonal depth across the side panels and quarter overlays. Metallic silver reflective material hits the tongue with its distinctive fighter jet-inspired design.

The embroidered “23” appears cleanly on the lateral side in grey stitching. Black Nike Air branding sits boldly on the heel alongside the classic Jumpman logo. The translucent icy blue outsole showcases the herringbone traction pattern and Jumpman logo beneath.

The white midsole features black shark tooth detailing that wraps around the entire shoe. This maintains the aggressive look that made this silhouette revolutionary when Tinker Hatfield first designed it.

Also, the retail price of the sneakers will be $215 when they drop.

With great excitement, the songwriter wrote on her Instagram, “Finally my new album entitled TO WHOM THIS MAY CONCERN drops Feb. 13th!!!! PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE and THANK YOU for your patience and your listening ears. Presave link available in my bio now! Much Love, Jilly from Philly.”

Jill’s actually discussed To Whom It May Concern already, doing so at the tail end of December. Speaking with Million Dollaz Worth Of Game, she told Wallo and Gillie, “It’s a lot of living in this album. It’s a lot of revelation. Musically, it’s a full spectrum. Had some wonderful musicians come in. I feel touched all over, literally… The musicianship on this project and the people that gravitated towards it, I couldn’t be happier. I couldn’t have ever even imagined who is on this album.”

Speaking of features, Jill didn’t spare any expense. Ab-Soul, J.I.D., Tierra Whack and Too $hort will be the guest vocalists. All of them should lend some intriguing performances to the album’s tracklist.

As for the noteworthy producers, they include DJ Premier, Adam Blackstone, Om’Mas Keith, Camper, Andre Harris, Trombone Shorty, Seige Montracity, Eric Wortham, DW Wright and VT Tolan.

Om’Mas Keith’s contributions can actually be heard already as Jill Scott has also dropped the lead single for To Whom It May Concern today. “Beautiful People” kicks off the rollout on a high note (no pun intended) as Jill’s still got it and them some vocally.

As we shared, circle February 13 on your calendars. The album will consist of 19 songs.

As caught by Livebitez on Instagram, she posted a video to her IG of her allegedly sleeping next to the former Migo. Or rather, ‘Set allegedly sleeping next to Powell, as she’s holding the camera above him with a smile. In fact, she even insinuated that they allegedly recorded an explicit tape together, and flips him off at one point.

“made a tape last night & all u heard was him in the video lol offset you sleepy boy @celinagonewild,” Celina captioned her post.

Fans took to Livebitez‘s comments section on Instagram with sharp criticisms of this alleged invasion of privacy. Also, they brought up Celina Powell’s infamous relationship scandals. Some even pointed to her previous history with Offset, which involved false rumors and allegations on her behalf. We will see if the rapper responds to this clip.

For those unaware, Celina Powell has made various claims about Offset, alleging that he fathered a child with her back in late 2017. This was when he was still with Cardi B. She later admitted that she lied about the whole thing during a conversation with DJ Akademiks.

“There’s no baby,” Powell expressed. “Get over it. Suck my d**k. Y’all investigated this s**t for nine months. I didn’t give a f**k, I was laughing at you b***hes. I, Celina, apologize to you, [Cardi]. I’m sorry, I sincerely apologize if I made you, for one second, think Offset was the father of my pretend baby.”

But Celina Powell’s Offset claims didn’t stop there. Back in 2021, she alleged that he offered her $50K to get an abortion, which Cardi B herself clapped back at.

With all this history in mind, we will see if either party addresses these allegations and their alleged relationship once more. Both of them are in a lot of drama, and this clip doesn’t make that any easier to mitigate.

Via a social media post, the Harlem creative teased the single’s upcoming release and music video. It’s seemingly directed by Rocky himself, Folkert Verdoorn, and Simon Becks; “A.K.A. The Three Musketeers,” as teased by the clip. Magna Studios, Freenjoy, and AWGE produced it, whereas Winona Ryder will star. In the teaser clip, you can also see model, actor, and musician Brooks Ginnan, whom you might recognize from JPEGMAFIA music videos and Playboi Carti shoots.

As for the sound of the track itself, languid guitar riffs lead into a propulsive drum beat, but we don’t hear much else. Luckily, we won’t have to wait long to hear the whole thing, as it’s apparently coming out on Monday (January 5).

“VIDEO OF THE F***IN YEAR,” the A$AP artist captioned his post. “HAPPY NEW YEAR 2026 -DONTBEDUMB PUNK ROCKY MONDAY.” A$AP Rocky’s promoting the heck out of this album, and we can’t wait for it to finally manifest.

When Is A$AP Rocky Dropping Don’t Be Dumb?

A$AP Rocky’s Don’t Be Dumb comes out on January 16 of this year, meaning we are just two weeks away from one of the decade’s most anticipated hip-hop albums. All the delays, setbacks, and teases have kept it in that conversation for pretty much every year in the 2020s. Will it live up to the hype?

We sure hope so. Recently, A$AP Rocky revealed Don’t Be Dumb‘s direction, which is also in collaboration with Tim Burton.

“The 15 track, 2LP vinyl moves through genres the way you’d move through a city—Jazz, Hip-Hop, Metal, Indie, R&B—each track capturing a different block, mood, or moment. It’s Rocky in full range,” a description from the Bilt loyalty program read. A$AP Rocky partnered with them to cover rent for the tenants in the Harlem building he lived in as a teenager. With two bonus tracks on a side B, Don’t Be Dumb will reportedly be 17 tracks long in its fullest version.

From friends-and-family releases to charity auctions, these kicks are legendary. Here’s the ranking of every Eminem x Air Jordan sneaker release:

5. Air Jordan 3 “Super Bowl”

The Air Jordan 3 “Super Bowl” was made exclusively for Eminem’s appearance at Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg’s Super Bowl halftime show performance. Only 10 pairs exist, making it incredibly rare.

The design features classic Fire Red colors with unique personal touches. Eminem’s reverse “E” logo appears on the tongue. The heel includes a Jason Voorhees mask and Slim Shady branding. The sneaker perfectly captures the Super Bowl’s energy.

It arrived during a massive cultural moment for hip-hop. The limited production keeps resale values extremely high. Most fans will never see these in person. They represent Eminem’s continued partnership with Jordan Brand.

Despite the low production, they lack the historical weight of earlier releases. The Super Bowl connection adds hype but not enough legacy.

These are still grails for any serious collector, and the design quality matches Jordan Brand’s premium standards. This collaboration shows their relationship remains strong after two decades.

4. Air Jordan 2 “The Way I Am”

This collaboration holds deep personal meaning for Eminem. The Air Jordan 2 was his first pair of Jordans growing up. He chose this model to promote his autobiography of the same name.

The design features grey suede and black leather throughout. Em’s handwritten lyrics cover the mudguard and collar. Only 313 pairs were made, honoring Detroit’s area code. The shoe was released exclusively through the Air Jordan Flight Club online.

Resale prices quickly shot into the thousands. The personal connection makes this release special for longtime fans. It shows Eminem’s respect for his sneaker history. The grey and black colorway keeps things understated but premium.

These aren’t as flashy as other Eminem Jordans. However, the storytelling element elevates their significance. Collectors appreciate the literary connection and Detroit pride. The limited run makes them nearly impossible to find. This release proved Eminem could move beyond the Jordan 4.

3. Air Jordan 4 x Carhartt “Black Chrome”

This three-way collaboration brought together Detroit’s finest brands. Eminem, Jordan Brand, and Carhartt created something truly unique. The black Carhartt canvas upper gives serious workwear vibes.

Chrome eyelets provide bold contrast against the dark base. A translucent outsole adds modern sneaker technology. The heel features Eminem’s reverse “E” and Jason’s hockey mask. Only 10 pairs were auctioned on eBay for charity.

The auction raised $227,000 for the Marshall Mathers Foundation. Proceeds supported music education programs in Michigan. The Carhartt connection celebrates Detroit’s blue-collar roots. This collaboration perfectly represents Eminem’s hometown pride.

The design balances premium materials with rugged construction. Resale prices consistently stay above $30,000. Some pairs have sold for over $40,000.

The charity aspect adds meaningful purpose beyond hype. This release shows how sneaker culture can give back. The Carhartt partnership was unexpected but brilliant.

2. Air Jordan 4 “Encore” 2017 Retro

Jordan Brand brought back the legendary “Encore” colorway for charity. Only 23 pairs were produced for a StockX raffle. The proceeds supported Eminem’s Marshall Mathers Foundation again.

The 2017 version features slight differences from the original. These changes help distinguish the retro from the 2005 release. The blue suede and red accents are still there. Fans donated $10 for chances to win the shoes.

The raffle generated massive excitement in sneaker culture. Resale prices reached nearly $20,000 for this version. While less rare than the original, it’s still incredibly limited. The retro gave fans a second chance at owning history.

It proved the Encore’s lasting impact on sneaker culture. The charity angle made the hype feel purposeful. This release showed Eminem’s ongoing commitment to giving back. The blue colorway remains one of Jordan Brand’s boldest.

Few collaborations can command this much resale value years later. The 2017 retro cemented the Encore’s legendary status.

1. Air Jordan 4 “Encore” 2005

This is the most legendary Eminem sneaker ever created. Only 50 pairs were made for friends and family. The blue suede construction stands out immediately. Red, grey, and black accents complete the eye-catching design.

Encore branding appears on the tongue and heel. This was Eminem’s first-ever Air Jordan collaboration. It dropped during the peak of his commercial success. The shoe commemorated his fourth studio album. The blue colorway came from a rejected Undefeated sample.

Eminem spotted it at Nike headquarters and made it his own. Resale prices have hit tens of thousands of dollars, with some pairs selling for over $50,000 at auction. The Encore defined what a celebrity sneaker collab could be. It set the standard for exclusivity in sneaker culture.

This release proved hip-hop artists could create sneaker grails. The design remains fresh nearly two decades later. No other Eminem Jordan captures this much history and hype. The Encore is the ultimate sneakerhead flex.
