The lineup includes multiple silhouettes across different colorways and collab partners. The collection sits alongside Nike’s broader World Cup marketing push, which has been building for several weeks.

The Cryshot is one of the new silhouettes introduced as part of the X2 collection. It has a football-inspired design with an Air unit in the sole and a strap across the forefoot. Several colorways of the shoe are visible in the footage, ranging from an all-white version to a bold yellow option. A silver and orange colorway also appears in the in-hand video.

On the collaboration side, Palace x Nike and Jacquemus x Nike pieces are both visible in the footage. The Palace version of the Cryshot features a black and red colorway with Palace branding on the forefoot strap.

A Jacquemus-branded version takes a cleaner, mostly white approach. There’s also a collaboration with Patta in there too, likely for the Netherlands.

Nike positioned the X2 collection as a bridge between football culture and streetwear. The range covers enough ground to appeal to both sneaker collectors and football fans following the tournament.

Nike X2 Collection World Cup

The X2 collection name refers to the idea of two worlds coming together, specifically football and street culture. Nike has used the World Cup as a platform for sneaker and fashion releases before, but the X2 approach appears to be a more structured effort to connect those two audiences.

The Cryshot silhouette is new, which makes it one of the more notable introductions in the collection rather than a retro or rework of an existing shoe. The Palace collaboration fits naturally given that Palace x Nike has been an active partnership for several years, and Palace already has a connection to football culture through its UK roots.

Jacquemus adds a fashion angle to the lineup that sits separately from the more streetwear-focused pieces. The in-hand footage gives the clearest look yet at how the full collection comes together.

No release information has been confirmed at this point. It is also unclear whether the shoe will see a public release at all.

The shoe is built on the Air Force 1 Mid silhouette and features a grey felt-like upper with multicolored speckle detailing throughout. Small flecks of blue, red, and other colors appear scattered across the fabric surface.

An ankle strap sits across the forefoot area, which departs from the standard Air Force 1 Mid construction. Concrete Boys branding appears on the shoe alongside Nike detailing.

The text “It’s Us” is visible on a tab near the ankle area. Concrete Boys is Lil Yachty’s creative collective, which has produced Nike collaborations before. Previous Concrete Boys x Nike releases generated significant interest in the sneaker community when they dropped.

These photos represent the first public look at this particular version. Whether it is a sample, a limited gift, or something intended for wider release has not been communicated. No official announcement from Nike or Concrete Boys has followed the images surfacing online.

Lil Yachty Concrete Boys x Nike Air Force 1 Mid

Concrete Boys is a creative collective founded by Lil Yachty that has expanded into the sneaker collaboration space over the past several years. Their previous Nike projects have used unconventional materials and construction details that set them apart from more standard releases.

The felt-like upper on this Air Force 1 Mid continues that pattern of using unexpected textures on a familiar silhouette. The speckled detailing across the surface adds visual complexity without relying on bold colors.

The ankle strap is a functional design element that also changes the overall profile of the shoe compared to a stock Air Force 1 Mid. Concrete Boys collabs tend to have limited distribution when they do release, which contributes to their resale value and general demand.

The lack of any release information at this stage means the timeline for a potential drop remains completely open.

Haaland’s pink sneakers stood out against his all-black travel suit. The images circulated quickly across sneaker and football accounts once they were posted online.

The shoe features a pink and sail leather upper with a red Swoosh and Cactus Jack branding throughout. It is one of the more recent colorways from Travis Scott’s ongoing collaboration with Jordan Brand. The “Tropical Pink” name reflects the color palette, which leans heavily into soft pink tones across the upper.

Haaland is a Nike athlete, which makes the appearance of a Nike collab on his feet relatively straightforward. He is also one of the more visible footballers in the world right now, and his presence at the World Cup has kept him in the media consistently.

Travis Scott’s Air Jordan 1 Low collaborations have generated consistent attention since the first version released several years ago. Seeing the shoe on a high-profile athlete in a non-basketball context adds to the collab’s visibility.

Erling Haaland’s Travis Scott Jordan 1s

The Travis Scott x Air Jordan 1 Low “Tropical Pink” is part of an ongoing series of collaborative releases between Travis Scott’s Cactus Jack brand and Jordan Brand. The Air Jordan 1 Low has become one of the more frequently revisited silhouettes in the Cactus Jack catalog.

This particular colorway uses a softer palette compared to earlier versions in the collaboration, which tended to lean on earth tones and neutral colors. The reversed Swoosh detail, which has become a signature element of Travis Scott’s Jordan collabs, appears on this version as well.

Haaland wearing the shoe during World Cup travel puts it in front of a football audience that may not follow sneaker releases closely. That kind of visibility tends to generate additional interest in a collab outside of the core sneaker community.

Livebitez shared Lossen’s allegations on Instagram, depicting graphic images of the injuries at the alleged hands of the Houston rapper. Viewer discretion is advised. Also, she claimed that was towards the end of a day, and she shared a video of its alleged start.

In the video, Lossen enters Walka’s car (who is recording) and gives him lots of cash. “Thank You Ma’am, Some things just never change,” he captioned the video on IG.

As for Sauce Walka’s claims about Kiley Lossen, as caught by DJ Akademiks on IG, he posted a video on Instagram of an alleged fight they had when she was drunk. Per his allegations, she smashed one of his cars, threw his phone in the ocean, and fought three girls.

“I DO NOT ABUSE WOMEN,” Sauce wrote. “YOU ARE A VIOLENT ALCOHOLIC & A LIAR I got proof jigsaw… U [fought] almost every female I know CAUSE of your DISGUSTING DISRESPECTFUL MOUTH & DRINKING BEHAVIOR STOP THE LIES.”

The inciting incident of all this drama is leaked audio of Sauce Walka threatening Drake. Later on, fans unearthed the dynamic at play: Sauce allegedly became jealous of Drizzy for developing a friendship with Kiley Lossen in late 2024.

Most recently, the mother of Sauce Walka’s child praised Drake during a No Jumper interview with Adam22. She claimed the Toronto superstar has done more for her than Walka has.

We will see if these harrowing allegations lead to more developments or if both parties will find a resolution. This situation quickly spiraled out of control with more beef roping in Adam22, and it seems like it reached a boiling point. Neither coparent has addressed the allegations from the other at press time, and we’ll see if that changes.

Akademiks posted a clip to his Instagram to which Joy replied with various lovey-dovey emojis. But Cardi replied with, “You was smiling maaaa hard” and a crying-laughing emoji.

That’s because the commentator was shooting his shot with the mother of 50 Cent’s child during their talk. In the clip the Bronx rapper reacted to, he asked about Daphne Joy’s OnlyFans subscription and asked what she has on it, with her clarifying it’s all “solo.”

“We should collab,” Ak replied, saying he doesn’t have a “bulldozer” but has a “mid-sized Sedan.” DJ Akademiks also asked about a “size requirement,” which Daphne chuckled at.

He also asked if not wanting to go down south is a deal-breaker, which she denied. Other questions included preferences in intimate group settings and one day taking shots together in real life. Livebitez caught some other highlights on IG.

DJ Akademiks later posted a video caught by keeno on Twitter saying he understands why 50 Cent and Diddy fell for Daphne Joy. This was after the interview. He also shared some highlights on the social media platform about him asking her about her type and if she would get intimate with him on the first night.

As for Cardi’s reaction, Cardi B and DJ Akademiks have connected before. They recently had a long phone call which led Ak to assume she isn’t worried about Nicki Minaj, as the topic never came up despite Akademiks’ commentary on the feud before and his fandom of Nicki allies like Drake.

A lot of folks have similarly amused or flabbergasted reactions to these interview clips, and we’ll see what else emerges on the timeline. Although this began as a harrowing experience for Daphne Joy, it seems like its salacious slant is something she’s embracing with those covering it all.

For those unaware, the singer recently used that very same tweet to promote her project and share an alternate version of its title track. In it, she seems to take aim at Minaj with lines like “Used to be the biggest fan, then I lost weight” and “Crazy thing is, if you knew me, you would like me.”

“We as women, we collab with each other. But I’ll say another thing: Fighting sells,” the Detroit native told Drink Champs, as caught by ZADCOZZY on Twitter. “It’s true. Beef sells more than anything these days. And you see the reaction. When I put out positive music and when I talk about loving everybody, I get roasted. They look at me like, ‘Not now, Lizzo. Don’t hit us with that positivity s**t.’ I’ve literally read them say, ‘We don’t want that empowering s**t right now.’ Not fans, but just people on the Internet. It’s the general consensus of humans. Everybody is tussling.”

Lizzo Speaks On Nicki Minaj

She also spoke about award shows having very little female rap representation at one point, and how the Queen of the Barbz was so unquestionably and rightfully dominant. Lizzo said she can’t imagine how Nicki must feel after being on the top and now having more competition.

But she also clarified Minaj hasn’t done anything to her personally for her to have an issue. The 38-year-old said she doesn’t feel a way about the First Lady of Young Money dissing her online, acknowledging her undeniable greatness. However, she doesn’t like how Nicki Minaj moves these days and how she talks about Lizzo and her friends. They didn’t have a prior friendship or connection beyond interactions when Lizzo was a fan. “I truly don’t know her. I know of her,” she added.

We will see if there’s another chapter here or if this beef will stay pretty toned-down.

As caught by No Jumper on Instagram, the commentator said he’s been watching Joy’s unspecified videos. She asked if he has a favorite, and he mentioned the recent video of her twerking, which raised eyebrows due to its timing coming so close to her blasting whoever leaked the explicit video.

The mother of 50 Cent’s child said she had seen Akademiks clips before and finds him “so hilarious,” although she admitted she felt a bit nervous to talk to him. “Sometimes, I even laugh at my own pain. We can’t stay in that space,” she expressed.

Then, Ak said people claiming he isn’t well-endowed when it comes to his manhood are lying. “If I was with Daphne, could I do any damage?” he asked, which Daphne chuckled at. DJ Akademiks followed that up by asking her if she has a “size requirement” and wondered what he has to “bring to the table” for her.

“Well… I would say that it’s really all about the motion in the ocean,” Joy said with a laugh. “What can I say? You saw what you saw. But you also saw something else.”

For those unaware, Daphne Joy’s “size” comment concerning the Diddy tape refers to how many people made fun of Puff’ manhood following the leak. This includes 50 Cent, who made a mockery of his rival online. Funnily enough, DJ Akademiks warned Fif to not get too comfortable dissing Combs over this. Sure enough, Celina Powell later claimed 50 is equal to the Bad Boy mogul in this regard following his trolls.

We will see what else emerges from Daphne Joy’s conversation with DJ Akademiks. It’s a sensitive, serious, and harrowing topic, but folks are also tapping into the more salacious side of things.

Per court documents reportedly obtained by the publication, the singer’s pursuit of joint physical and legal custody of Lovely also includes a request for each party to cover their own legal fees. Diamond had previously asked for him to cover all legal expenses. She had also requested only visitation rights for Breezy.

We will see how this battle develops in court as Chris demands an equal playing field when it comes to coparenting, decision-making, and other family duties. This legal debacle follows some heavy social media drama, as his partners got into it online.

Also, with Chris Brown’s upcoming tour with the one and only Usher arriving soon, this fills up the schedule even more. So there’s a lot going on right now that he has to deal with.

Diamond Brown & Chris Brown’s Relationship

A post shared by The Neighborhood Talk (@theneighborhoodtalk)

For those unaware, Diamond Brown went off on Chris Brown earlier this year. She claimed he tried to scare off her new relationship, despite him having a new one of his own with Jada Wallace.

Wallace clapped back at Diamond’s criticsms on social media, accusing her of preventing Chris from seeing Lovely. Diamond implied she’s ready to tussle with Jada over this matter, and things haven’t escalated further from there at press time. Rather, it seems like they are now officially moving forward in court with this issue rather than the Internet.

Chris Brown has other children by different mothers, namely his 12-year-old daughter Royalty with Nia Guzman and son Aeko (born in 2019) with Ammika Harris.

We will see if responses limit themselves to the court or if any of these parties have more to say on social media. There’s a lot of other drama going on right now in Breezy’s world, whether it’s home intruders or his history of allegations. But he always takes things one step at a time.

As caught by CY Chels on Twitter, the commentator said the women in Houston look “fat, out of shape, and mid” based on how he feels about Lossen. He believes Drizzy sent her money and engaged with her only so he could disrespect the Houston rapper.

“You got more body fat than me stuffed in your butt,” Ak said, saying Kiley thinks too highly of herself. “If this is what Drake likes, that means Drake just doesn’t like his bank account… Drake got to be just paying for this s**t just to f**k with Sauce. She’s doing an interview thinking that Drake f**ks with her… He wanted to f**k up your life… It’s not you, shorty.”

Akademiks said he doesn’t understand why rappers are arguing over women like Kiley Lossen, saying they look “garbage.” He also posited that no one “won” in this situation, referring to the two rappers. DJ Akademiks said they can’t win over a woman that’s a “six” and “practice,” chalking it up to ego and beef.

“If this is the type of chick Drake is getting, I got to start listening to his music different,” he added. “You can’t be rapping about a random ugly six like this. No way.”

Sauce Walka’s Beef With Drake

Ak claimed he didn’t say any of these disparaging remarks to diss Lossen specifically. Rather, he wanted to highlight the difference between getting love from attraction and from spite.

Still, Kiley Lossen would be well within her right to clap back at Akademiks, if she even finds a response worthwhile. It’s a pretty low blow, but an unsurprising one if you’ve seen his commentary before.

For those unaware, Drake and Sauce Walka’s beef recently blew up due to leaked audio of the latter threatening to shoot up the former’s car. They had buried the hatchet earlier this decade, but then, Drizzy started hanging out with Lossen, and that soured quick.
