According to AllHipHop, the Compton rapper revealed the news during his recent Los Angeles radio press run with Big Boy’s Neighborhood and The Cruz Show. “I wanted to give fans fresh music this year while preparing for the release of Documentary 3, so I went in and knocked out these 19 tracks with Mike & Keys,” he reportedly stated at some point. “Then we’ll come out on top of the year with the album.” As such, expect The Documentary 3 to come out at some point in January, although a grain of salt is in order.

After all, there was some conclusion as to when this Gangsta Grillz project would come out, and some of The Game’s teased tracks didn’t manifest. For example, he claimed that “Crack Music 2” with Kanye West would appear on this new record, but it looks like that might show up on The Documentary 3 instead.

That, however, would make even more sense. That’s because Kanye West and The Game previewed The Documentary 3 earlier this year.

Did The Game Diss Kendrick Lamar?

Nevertheless, we will see whether or not all of this ends up being true or if The Documentary 3 will take some more time to cook in the oven. Either way, fans already got Every Movie Needs A Trailer, so they’re eating good.

But a big question is hanging around Jayceon Taylor fans right now: did he diss Kendrick Lamar on this mixtape? A few fan theories and responses drew some interesting conversation online. But most fans seem to agree that this is a massive reach.

The Game will most likely deny these claims, as he’s professed nothing but appreciation for Kendrick in recent times. Sure, some of that also came with Drake praise. But Compton sticks together, and it seems like things are okay right now.

These images come from the 2016 retro, so the final 2026 pair may see tweaks, but the core look should stay true. The white leather upper, black mudguard, and subtle hits of red created one of the cleanest Jordan 9s ever made, and the shoe has a special place in the lineup thanks to its connection to Michael Jordan’s “Space Jam” era.

The 9 has always been a little underrated, but this colorway continues to stand out. It carries the international–themed details that defined the model at launch, along with the big embroidered “23” on the heel that always hits.

With Jordan Brand leaning harder into nostalgia, this release feels timed to perfection. Expect hype to build fast as we get closer to the drop, especially with pairs likely landing on SNKRS and at select retailers.

Air Jordan 9 OG “Space Jam”

The Air Jordan 9 OG “Space Jam” features a white leather upper with perforated panels. The black mudguard wraps around the shoe and gives it a clean contrast.

The midsole and outsole follow the same black and white split. Red accents show up on the tongue branding and the embroidered heel number. The shoe has a high-cut build with black rope laces.

Further the heel tab is thick and easy to put on. The outsole traction pattern looks sharp and detailed. Overall, it is a simple and classic colorway that still feels strong today.

Jordan 9 “Space Jam” Release Date

Sneaker Bar Detroit reports that the Air Jordan 9 OG “Space Jam” will be released on August 8th, 2026. Also, the retail price of the sneakers will be $215 when they drop.

“After watching that Netflix s**t that 50 produced, I don’t trust no celebrity,” he remarked, as caught by Hollywood Unlocked on Instagram. “Thank you, God, that I never wanted nobody’s part. That’s why there’ll never be no features, no studios. Thank you! I’m not even hot no more, nobody even ‘requesting’ me. All that s**t, bro. 50, you showed me something, man. Aye, no excuses.”

“Look, man, I can’t talk to no n***a that got glasses on talking to me every time I see him” Waka added in another clip. “I got to see the lies in your face, I got to see the demon in your eyes, the angel in your eyes, the confidence in your words. I got to know you real with what you saying to me. Can’t trust no n***a wearing glasses all day, man. Look me in my eyes when we talking, man. Real s**t.”

Of course, this is ironic because Fif is a celebrity, and it seems like he took it as more praiseful than anything else. The G-Unit mogul commented “He said f**k that, I’m alright over here by my self. LOL” on Hollywood Unlocked‘s post, and later took to Instagram with his own repost. “WAKA watched that s**t and said oh hell no. LOL,” 50 wrote.

50 Cent’s ABC Interview About Diddy

Many fans called out Waka Flocka Flame’s Trump support as another contradiction with this message. Of course, he never meant for this celebrity rejection to be taken seriously, but folks still ran with it.

Meanwhile, 50 Cent’s ABC interview on his Diddy doc captivated fans for reasons that have nothing to do with what he said. On IG, he suggested that he only did it because Sean Combs could watch it from prison, as ABC is one of the few accessible networks and stations for inmates.

TMZ caught a clip of Ye signing records for fans and then walking away with his colleagues, and it’s unclear what the couple is doing in Seoul. Kanye West has performed in Korea various times in the past, although it doesn’t look like he’s planning anything these days. Maybe it will be more of a surprise performance, just some vacation time, some business dealings, or his preferred launch pad for the supposedly incoming next Ye album, Bully.

In any case, fans have very little information to go off of these days. As such, maybe the couple will give more hints or make more outings together that paint a fuller picture. Seems like quite the random overnight trip, but that’s the luxury you have with so much money at your disposal.

Bianca Censori At The Grammys

One of the last major outings this couple made together was Kanye West and Bianca Censori’s 2025 Grammys antics. Back in February, she basically showed up naked to the red carpet before they made a quick exit. This was also amid Ye’s most aggressive and unhinged social media rants, whether they touched on his antisemitism, his misogyny, his feuds, or anything else.

Since then, nothing to that extreme took over the headlines, but they still turn heads everywhere they go. Amid a period of possible accountability for Kanye West, it will be interesting to see if there are big changes in other areas.

Perhaps this South Korea trip is part of those steps towards a more pleasant public image for the couple, which is a two-way street. After all, there’s nothing like a trip to help you unwind.

But with many past controversies and divisive public moves in mind, who knows what comes next? All we hope is that Ye and Bianca are finding their happiness without losing themselves in the process.

The BIN 23 line has always been known for premium builds, limited numbers, and prices that hit the wallet hard. That will be the case again here. Expect this release to be one of the most expensive Air Jordan drops of 2026, and likely one of the hardest to secure.

The shoe takes on a deep green look that feels rich and elevated, matching the BIN 23 standard. The suede overlays, cross-straps, and sculpted heel all come together in a clean tonal layout. There is a gold accent on the midsole that adds just enough flash without going overboard.

Of course, the BIN 23 wax seal branding makes a return, linking this release to the exclusive legacy built by earlier models like the BIN 7 and BIN 13. As next summer approaches, expect demand to climb.

BIN releases come around rarely, and when they do, they tend to disappear instantly. This Air Jordan 8 is shaping up to be one of those moments. If you want a pair, prepare early.

Air Jordan 8 “BIN 23” Release Date

The Air Jordan 8 “BIN 23” uses a dark green upper with suede panels. The cross-straps sit on top in the same green shade. The midsole has a gold piece that stands out against the dark color.

Also the shoe keeps the classic AJ8 shape with padded areas around the ankle and the tongue uses a bright red patch for contrast.

Further the outsole stays green with a familiar AJ8 pattern. The wax seal graphic is on the tongue and adds a finishing touch. The design feels premium and very intentional. It looks like a true BIN 23 release.

Nice Kicks reports that the Air Jordan 8 “BIN 23” will be released in July of 2026. Also, the retail price of the sneakers will be $355 when they drop.

“I am writing this statement to correct some of the lies presented in the Netflix, Sean Combs: The Reckoning, released on December 2, 2025,” Janice Combs reportedly stated. “These inaccuracies regarding my son Sean’s upbringing and family life is intentionally done to mislead viewers and further harm our reputation. In the documentary, I am portrayed as an abusive parent. This is untrue… I raised Sean with love and hard work, not abuse.”

Janice Combs also denied the claims in 50 Cent’s Diddy doc that the mother and son have a strained relationship. Elsewhere in the statement, the Bad Boy mogul is referenced as a “dutiful son.” In addition, the matriarch “requested that these distortions, falsehoods and misleading statements be publicly retracted.”

“The allegations stated by Mr. Kirk Burrowes that my son slapped me while we were conversing after the tragic City College events on December 28, 1991, are inaccurate and patently false,” she stated. “That was a very sad day for all of us. For him to use this tragedy and incorporate fake narratives to further his prior failed and current attempt to gain what was never his, Bad Boy Records, is wrong, outrageous and past offensive.”

Diddy Responds To Documentary

Meanwhile, Diddy’s efforts to discredit this 50 Cent documentary have two main arguments. The first is alleged defamatory practices and purportedly misleading information, and the second is the supposedly illegal acquisition of footage. However, Netflix and 50 Cent pushed back against these accusations and stand by their product.

“Claims being made about ‘Sean Combs: The Reckoning’ are false,” the streaming giant stated. “The project has no ties to any past conversations between Sean Combs and Netflix. The footage of Combs leading up to his indictment and arrest were legally obtained. This is not a hit piece or an act of retribution. Curtis Jackson is an executive producer but does not have creative control. No one was paid to participate.”

While we don’t have images of the new version yet, the photos circulating online are from the 2016 release. That leaves the door open for small adjustments, whether it’s materials, shape, or color blocking.

Jordan Brand has been refining retro models lately, so it’ll be interesting to see what changes, if any, come with this drop. What makes the “True Blue” so timeless is simple. It was never about hype. It’s about clean colors, the elephant print, and the way the blue and red accents play off the white leather.

It has that unmistakable late-80s energy, the kind of shoe that instantly reminds you why the Air Jordan 3 is considered one of Tinker Hatfield’s best designs. With its return now confirmed, expect excitement to build as we get closer to release season.

Overall, whether Jordan Brand sticks to the 2016 playbook or introduces subtle upgrades, the “True Blue” is poised to be one of 2026’s biggest retro moments.

Air Jordan 3 “True Blue”

The Air Jordan 3 “True Blue” features white leather across the upper. The elephant print sits on the toe and heel with its familiar grey and black look.

Also the midsole uses a strong blue shade that wraps around the shoe. Red accents hit the eyelets and Jumpman on the tongue. The collar and inner lining use blue padding.

Further Nike Air branding sits on the heel in bold blue. The outsole stays grey with a simple traction pattern. The shoe feels clean, bright, and very classic. Overall it looks like a true retro Jordan should.

Air Jordan 3 “True Blue” Release Date

Sneaker Bar Detroit reports that the Air Jordan 3 “True Blue” will be released on July 3rd, 2026. Also, the retail price of the sneakers will be $230 when they drop.

Per the outlet, the Different artist had no bail upon his November 14 arrest, but the government asked on November 26 to review a decision from a magistrate judge who ordered a bond release. Authorities approved a $100,000 bond last week secured by his girlfriend’s home and he went back home to his sister Britney.

Now, Casino is on house arrest with exceptions for doctors visits and court dates. There are also various other rules and regulations, such as the “active” search for employment, location monitoring, no alcohol excess, and more. Elsewhere, sources allegedly close to the rapper caught by STREETWORK85NAWF on Twitter say that his release from jail owes itself to strong legal representation, not any cooperation with police or federal agents. We will see if this ever clears up more affirmatively in the near future.

Why Was FBG Casino Arrested?

For those unaware, FBG Casino was arrested for fentanyl possession and charged with conspiracy to possess with intent to distribute. Federal authorities raided an Airbnb in Forest Park, Georgia and reportedly found 21 kilograms of fentanyl at the residence, in addition to around $384K in cash from multiple sources, a handgun, a money counter, a food sealer, and other packaging items.

Prosecutors accused the codefendant in the case, David Estevan Montillo Diaz, of selling the drugs to Casino when the raid occurred. The latter reportedly tried to escape the premises, but was unsuccessful.

Meanwhile, FBG Casino now faces significant prison time. His charges could land him behind bars for anywhere from ten years (the mandatory minimum) or a maximum life sentence. We will see what comes of this situation and whether or not we will get more case details about the arrest or the ensuing bail negotiations. Either way, it seems like quite the wide-ranging case that could be much more consequential than any one individual.

These pairs aren’t confirmed for release, but they’ve already created some interest thanks to their bright palettes and clear connection to SoleFly’s recent projects. The first sample stands out immediately. It comes in a vivid orange upper with suede and leather mixing across the panels.

The cream midsole gives it a vintage tone, while the green accents on the heel tab and outsole add depth that feels rooted in the “Fruits Of Our Labor” theme. It is the kind of shoe that reads loud on-foot but still feels thoughtful and well balanced.

The second sample goes in a different direction. This pair features a clean white base with orange and green hits that echo the fruit-inspired aesthetic without leaning too heavy into it.

Both pairs show how far the Jordan 3 can stretch in the hands of a creative collaborator. Whether these remain samples or become future releases, SoleFly has clearly tapped into something fans want. The momentum from the last release doesn’t seem to be slowing down.

The orange pair uses bright suede and leather panels that pop right away. The cream midsole softens the look and adds a vintage touch.

Also green accents appear on the back tab and outsole, giving the shoe a sharp contrast. The laces come in an off-white shade that matches the midsole.

Further the white sample offers a cleaner feel with orange and green details. The materials look smooth and simple. Both colorways have classic Jordan 3 lines and shape. Overall they sit well on foot and stand out without trying too hard.

The Queens star took to Instagram to share an unsourced claim about 50 Cent’s recent interview talking about The Reckoning. “Finding out 50 Cent agreed to do an interview with ABC news station only because it’s one of the few stations they’re allowed to watch in prison. He’s a menace,” the post read. “I thought about it, what’s wrong with that ?” 50 captioned his repost.

As for what he said in the interview, he called Puff Daddy his “favorite villain” but denied claims that they have any personal issues. “I don’t know him to be tough,” Fif shared. “Like, we haven’t even had problems. Me and him. They all say we’ve had beef for 20 years, but I have hired both of his sons for different projects that I worked on. Two different television shows, Quincy [Brown] and Justin [Combs]. So I don’t have that energy towards him where we were trying to hurt each other. When other people pointed out those situations, like that he was dangerous, then I said, ‘Oh, okay.’ I had to take it in, but we never got there.”

50 Cent Interview On Diddy Documentary

Elsewhere, 50 Cent told GQ there’s no Diddy beef, at least not in the personal sense. “If someone’s not saying something, then you would assume everybody in hip-hop is okay with what’s going on,” he told the outlet, explaining his belief that Combs’ status made others fearful of speaking out. “There’s no place for me, I didn’t make the docuseries. I got the best possible people to make one. That’s why you don’t feel anybody’s energy when watching. […] If it was [my agenda], I would’ve focused on the fact that you’re the only man in jail for transporting male sex workers.”

50 Cent also claimed Diddy sent him flowers, but this is probably just another troll. We’ll see if Puff ever confirms that he got to see 50’s interview behind bars.
