Quotable Lyrics from Snakes On My Collar

Got a Glock in my pants so I got two dicks (Bling)
And the clip on the yacht look likе a pool stick (Bling, it’s diamond*)
I done changed up the game, made these hoes pay for dick (Bling)
Got a Chrome Heart wrist and a bustdown wrist (Bling, slime, woo)

Last year’s launch became Fanatics’ best-selling merch release ever, so expectations are high heading into this second wave. A few pieces from the drop are already standing out to us, starting with the Micah Parsons Green Bay Packers Rivalries jersey. It brings that classic green and gold identity fans know, but wrapped in a fresh design built specifically for this year’s rollout.

The Randy Moss Minnesota Vikings Rivalries jersey hits a little differently too. Putting a franchise legend on this year’s design ties the new look back to real Vikings history instead of just slapping a logo on fresh fabric. It’s one of the more meaningful pieces in the entire collection.

Beyond jerseys, the drop also branches into footwear and outerwear, giving fans more ways to rep their team without needing to wear a full uniform every time.

Nike NFL Rivalries

The Nike Air Max 90 in Minnesota Vikings colors is one of the more interesting pieces from this drop. It takes one of Nike’s most reliable retro runners and dresses it in team colors, without losing what makes the shoe work in the first place. It’s a genuinely wearable option beyond just game day, which isn’t always true for team-branded sneakers.

On the outerwear side, the Green Bay Packers Rivalries Windrunner rounds things out nicely. It pulls the same design language from this year’s jerseys and turns it into something you can actually layer up in as the season gets colder.

Between the jerseys, footwear, and outerwear, this year’s Rivalries drop gives fans a lot more to work with than just an alternate uniform. The full collection releases September 1st across Nike, NFL Shop, Fanatics, and select retailers.

This swift verdict came after a two-week trial in which the prosecution brought 24 witnesses to the stand. Keefe D’s interview statements and memoir were also used throughout the trial, which ultimately led to the jury’s decision to convict.

After being given his guilty verdict, Keefe D made some demands in the courtroom. In the clip below, he tells the judge that he wants all of his “stuff” back. This includes phones and anything else that was taken into evidence. Furthermore, he stated that he had plans to appeal his conviction. The judge swiftly explained that this can only be done once he has been officially sentenced.

Keefe D is going to be sentenced on October 13 at 10 AM local time at the Clark County District Court in Las Vegas. The maximum sentence for this conviction is life in prison. At 63 years old, this is ultimately a death sentence for Davis.

Once sentencing is over, Keefe D will be able to appeal his conviction. Whether or not he is successful remains to be seen. If no new evidence is presented, and it is found that the judge and jury followed the law, then it is unlikely that this will go anywhere.

Stay tuned to HNHH for more news and updates from this case. Let us know what you thought of the verdict in the comments below.

Just a few weeks ago, Drake posted a CD cover that said “Fear Of Missing Out” on the front. This subsequently led to other posts in which Drake used the acronym “FOMO.” It has not been confirmed whether “FOMO” is an album or some kind of tour. However, fans are holding out hope that it is the former.

On Monday evening, a letter Drake wrote to a man named Matt started circulating online. In this letter, Drake writes: “To Matt, Two truth tellers! Love and respect my g. 6’er. ICE. 2026 FOMO.”

Drake Is Giving Fans FOMO

This letter suggests that “FOMO” is coming this year. Once again, it is unclear whether or not this is actually an album or some other project. The speculation has been mounting, and Drake has no qualms about leaning into the hype.

If he does drop another album later this year, that will be his fourth of 2026. Of course, back on May 15, he shocked the hip-hop world by announcing three new albums. In addition to ICEMAN, he also dropped HABIBTI and MAID OF HONOUR.

ICEMAN has gone on to be a monstrous commercial success. He even went number one with songs like “Janice STFU.” For many, the album was a true return to form after a rough 2024.

Drake recently unveiled a remix of the song “Choosin Texas” by Ella Langley. This suggests the artist wants to get into his country bag. Whether or not that has anything to do with “FOMO” remains to be seen.

Khaki covers most of the upper, with black hits running through the mesh panels, tongue, and midsole. Gold accents show up across the wing eyelets, Jumpman branding, and studded heel detailing, keeping a jewelry-inspired theme running throughout the build.

The newest images add even more to that look. Gold crown charms now hang from the laces near the ankle. A small chain with a diamond-rimmed Jumpman pendant also sits across the tongue. Both details build onto the gold hardware already shown in earlier leaks, pushing the shoe further into full jewelry territory instead of just hinting at it through color.

On the heel, Roman numerals “II” and “III” replace the usual Jumpman or Nike Air branding. Together, they spell out 23 across both shoes. It’s an unusual branding choice for the silhouette, but it fits the shoe’s overall theme of going bold instead of staying subtle.

Air Jordan 4 “Musik”

“Musik” pulls its whole concept from the late ’90s and early 2000s hip-hop scene. That era was known for oversized fits, diamond grills, and heavy gold chains. Instead of referencing that period through graphics alone, Jordan Brand worked those jewelry motifs directly into the shoe’s actual hardware.

Packaging is expected to follow that same idea. Reports suggest the box will feature a baby photo styled after Lil Wayne’s Tha Carter III cover, one of the most recognizable images in hip-hop history. That image is said to be swapped out for one resembling a young Michael Jordan instead. This packaging detail is still unconfirmed, but it would tie the shoe’s whole concept together nicely.

This marks a different approach for Jordan Brand compared to most of its recent releases. Instead of pulling from basketball history, “Musik” leans fully into music and fashion nostalgia. That gives the Air Jordan 4 one of its boldest storytelling angles yet heading into 2027.

The stock is limited at just 646 pairs. That number nods to New York City’s 646 area code, which was introduced back in 1999. It ties the release directly to Victor Victor’s hometown roots, giving the drop a bit of extra meaning beyond just the colorway itself.

Red leather covers almost the entire upper, paired with a clean white Swoosh and matching white midsole. Also a black outsole grounds the build, keeping the color scheme simple and direct. The collection’s signature dog logo shows up stitched on the lateral heel too. Multicolored details also appear on the outsole, representing the other colorways in the wider release.

This pair follows the Victor Victor x Nike Air Force 1’s earlier debut, which first surfaced on Victor Wembanyama during the NBA Finals. Since then, the collaboration has picked up hype.

LeBron James, DJ Khaled, and Odell Beckham Jr. have all been spotted in various colorways ahead of their official release, helping build buzz before anything even hit shelves.

Victor Victor x Nike Air Force 1 “University Red

“University Red” isn’t dropping alone either. Court Purple, Yellow Zest, and Black/White versions are all scheduled for that same September 12th date. Each one is priced at $150, with its own individual style code attached.

The Nike Air Force 1 ’01 shape anchors the entire collection. It brings back the build and extra padding that defined the model’s early-2000s run. Color blocking across the project also pulls from Nike’s 1985 Be True to Your School series, giving each pair a shared visual thread despite the different tones.

The first time Victor Victor and Nike worked together was back in 2024. They dropped a clean, all-white Air Force 1 with the dog logo stitched on the heel.

Overall with 4 colorways all landing the same day, September 12th is shaping up to be a packed release across the board.

Concertgoers noticed signs that Richie was struggling near the end of Saturday’s show. During “All Night Long,” the final song of the night, he asked his team to bring him a chair so he could finish the performance seated.

Rumored Warning Signs Of Health Issues

The hospitalization follows a similar episode during the June 24 opening night of his Sing a Song All Night Long Tour with Earth, Wind & Fire. Richie told the St. Paul crowd he felt dizzy while performing “Dancing on the Ceiling” and eventually left the stage before completing his set. Paramedics met him backstage, and he was taken to a hospital as a precaution.

Doctors advised Richie to rest afterward, prompting the postponement of shows in Chicago and Columbus. He returned to the stage June 30 in Pittsburgh and later told fans on Instagram that he was doing well. Earth, Wind & Fire drummer John Paris also said at the time that Richie had appeared healthy before the St. Paul performance and believed he had been slightly dehydrated.

No changes to Richie’s remaining schedule have been announced in connection with the St. Louis hospitalization. His next listed performance with Earth, Wind & Fire is Sept. 26 at San Francisco’s Chase Center.

Each pair leans into earthy, outdoor-inspired tones. One of the pairs mixes olive and light grey with a chunky brown midsole. Another pairs burnt orange laces with a deep brown and green upper.

A yellow and black colorway stands out as the boldest of the group, while a final grey pair keeps things more muted overall.

The boot itself takes on a rugged, high-cut build unlike most of Bad Bunny’s past Adidas work. It leans more into hiking territory than his usual lifestyle-focused sneakers. That shift alone makes this one of the more unexpected silhouettes tied to his name so far.

Further, no release date or official confirmation has surfaced yet. These images give fans an early, unofficial look at where the partnership might be headed next.

Everything here should still be treated as unconfirmed for now, since neither Bad Bunny nor Adidas has commented on the leak. Stay tuned for more details as, or if, they surface.

Bad Bunny x Adidas Unreleased Boots

Bad Bunny’s relationship with Adidas has grown well past reworked classics like the Forum and Campus over the past few years. His BadBo 1.0 marked the first true signature shoe built entirely around his own design input. That pair debuted during a Super Bowl halftime performance earlier this year.

Also, leaks and unreleased samples have become a regular part of following this partnership. New colorways and silhouettes tend to surface online long before anything gets confirmed officially. That pattern has only picked up as the collaboration has grown.

Overall, these Cavehiker boots fit that same mold, offering a preview into what could eventually reach retail. Given how often new pairs leak before release, there’s no telling how long these particular samples might sit. Overall, fans will just have to wait until Adidas confirms anything official.

The state’s case rested heavily on Davis’ own accounts of the killing. Across interviews, conversations with investigators and his 2019 memoir, Compton Street Legend, Davis repeatedly placed himself inside the white Cadillac from which Shakur was shot and described handing a gun toward the back seat. Prosecutors argued that his story changed around the edges over time, but the central details remained intact. Under Nevada law, jurors did not need to find that Davis personally pulled the trigger if they concluded that he aided or directed the murder. “Who fired is not the question,” Chief Deputy District Attorney Binu Palal told the jury during closing arguments, per CBS News.

Keefe D Denied Involvement, Despite Previous Admissions

That theory addressed the central challenge raised by defense attorney Michael Sanft, who repeatedly pointed to what prosecutors lacked. There was no surveillance footage showing Davis at the shooting, no phone records placing him there, and little surviving physical evidence from a case that sat unresolved for nearly three decades. Sanft argued that Davis exaggerated or invented portions of his story for money and notoriety, while a former Las Vegas homicide detective acknowledged during the trial that he had been unable to independently verify Davis’ incriminating account.

Jurors ultimately sided with prosecutors, who presented Davis’ public storytelling as evidence rather than bravado. His statements described a retaliation plot after Shakur and others attacked Davis’ nephew, Orlando Anderson, at the MGM Grand earlier that night. Prosecutors said Davis obtained a weapon and joined a search for Shakur and Death Row Records co-founder Suge Knight before the Cadillac pulled alongside their BMW. Shakur was shot on Sept. 7, 1996, and died six days later at 25.

The verdict also closes a peculiar path to prosecution. Police had suspected Davis for years, but his willingness to speak publicly about the killing became central to the case that eventually put him before a jury. His memoir, documentary appearances, interviews, and recorded conversations with investigators made up much of the prosecution’s evidence, turning stories Davis had repeatedly told about one of Hip Hop’s most infamous murders into evidence used against him at trial.

Prosecutors said after the verdict that they would dismiss the gang enhancement attached to the charge because of witness logistics. The murder conviction remains intact. Davis is being held without bond while awaiting sentencing and faces a potential life sentence. He told the judge after the verdict that he intends to appeal.
