The Nike Air Foamposite One PRM “Realtree Camo” is set to release in Spring 2027 at an expected retail price of $250. Early mock-ups show the Realtree print spread across the entire molded upper. The black base layer wraps the collar, lace system, and sole. Then a pink Swoosh sits quietly on the side. It actually works.

The Foamposite has always pulled off wild colorways better than almost any other shoe. The molded shell just absorbs bold treatments in a way regular sneakers can’t. Camo on foam is genuinely a natural fit. So a Realtree pattern makes sense on paper. The pink twist, though, is what makes this one stand out from the usual drops.

No exact drop date is locked in yet. But Spring 2027 gives collectors some time to plan. In-hand images haven’t surfaced yet either. So the mock-ups are all we’ve got for now. Keep watching this one.

Nike Air Foamposite One “Realtree Camo”

The Air Foamposite One launched in 1997, designed by Eric Avar at Nike. The whole concept seemed wild at the time.

Liquid polyurethane gets heated and poured into molds to create the upper. No sewing, no panels. Just one smooth shell. Penny Hardaway became closely tied to the silhouette after seeing it early on.

It’s been a collector staple ever since. Realtree camouflage itself dates back to 1986, designed by outdoorsman Bill Jordan. Nike has used the print on other models before. But the Foamposite One is a first.

The pink colorway also adds a layer that makes this more than just a camo shoe. It crosses into fashion territory. The style code is JF4136-600. That detail alone confirms this is further along than just a rumor.

That matters a lot to collectors. Previous retros always had something slightly off. The shape, the branding, the proportions.

Jordan Brand is aiming to restore several original shape and construction details that got lost across earlier retro releases. That includes thinner elephant print lines and lower mudguard proportions. The Nike Air branding on the heel is coming back too. That detail alone has sneakerheads hyped.

The “White Cement” colorway carries a serious legacy. Michael Jordan wore this pair during the 1988 NBA Slam Dunk Contest, where he delivered his iconic free throw line dunk. That image ended up on half the MJ posters ever printed. So, the shoe carries real weight.

The 2027 drop is expected through Nike SNKRS and Nike.com, alongside major Jordan Brand retail partners. No exact date is pinned down yet, but it looks like early 2027 is the prediction for now.

Air Jordan 3 “White Cement”

Tinker Hatfield designed the Air Jordan 3, and the shoe introduced visible Air cushioning, elephant print overlays, and the Jumpman logo all at once.

That’s a lot of firsts for one shoe. The 2027 release also feels positioned as a real celebration of accuracy and heritage.

The 2023 “White Cement Reimagined” leaned heavily into a pre-aged, artificially vintage look. Further, the 2027 version takes the opposite approach. Clean white leather, crisp cement grey elephant print, Fire Red accents.

No forced aging, just the shoe as it was meant to look. Jordan Brand also plans to tie the release to NBA All-Star Weekend, which is the pefefect time to release this pair. Overall, these are going to move fast.

The St. Louis femcee shared a video of the two posing for pictures at the baby shower, soundtracking it with her new Drake collab from HABIBTI, “Hurrr Nor Thurr.” The Columbus native has also worked with Drizzy before and is a big fan, so it was a fitting choice.

“Congrats susta welcome 2 da hood,” Sexyy captioned her IG post. Many other folks were also in attendance at the baby shower, such as Angel Reese and Savage himself. It seemed like a great time, and the couple is feeling a lot of love these days.

There’s also a lot of excitement for the upcoming Big Mama album, which will seemingly be Latto’s last. We’ll see if Sexyy Red ends up being a feature, as she’s been teasing collaborations with 21, Mariah The Scientist, and Wizkid on her self-presumed retirement LP.

When Did Latto Give Birth?

For those unaware, it’s unclear exactly when Latto gave birth, but she seemed to confirm it via a documentary-style video going over her pregnancy journey. The clip ended with hospital machine beeps and voices telling someone to “Go, go, go” as if they were delivering a baby. She posted that video around Tuesday, and fans had been speculating a few days earlier that she had already given birth to her baby. The little one’s sex assigned at birth still hasn’t been revealed.

So that timeline is kind of unclear, but questions about Latto and 21 Savage’s relationship are in even more need of clarification from fans’ perspective. His alleged wife Keyanna Joseph reportedly posted a picture of her with the femcee and her sons with Savage.

Fans speculated high school sweethearts Joseph and 21 only married in 2020 due to his visa situation. With this new reported post, more folks seem to agree that things look amicable and supportive when it comes to relationship and coparenting dynamics across the board.

Folks are very happy for the couple whether they’re famous friends like Sexyy Red or everyday admirers, even if they technically haven’t explicitly confirmed anything. But fans know what they mean.

As caught by Viral Drizzy on Twitter, he shared the most recent first week sales projections for the ICEMAN trilogy. That album is leading the way with 460K album-equivalent units, whereas HABIBTI and MAID OF HONOUR followed with 114K and 109K respectively.

“I remember who said what about who when they thought it was what it wasn’t,” Jayceon Taylor captioned his IG Story post. This seems to refer to folks who criticized Drizzy over the years (especially in the past two) and allude to those critics having a different tone these days.

This ruffled feathers for a few reasons. Some will just hate on anything OVO-related on general principle, but other folks had more specific criticisms regarding West Coast loyalty. As it turns out, this is a little more complicated.

The Game Speaks On Drake & Kendrick Lamar

The Game explained supporting Drake amid Kendrick Lamar’s battle during a recent Complex interview. “When the whole thing popped off, everybody was like, ‘You supposed to be with the West Side!'” he said. “I was like, ‘We are the most segregated culture in hip-hop.’ Y’all want to say we supposed to be so West Side. But before you drive by the opps’ hood with your window down and yell out, ‘Where y’all from, cuz?’, is it about the West Side then? […] Let me do me on my type of time, and I’ma let you know how you should walk accordingly when you have camaraderies or real friendships.”

The Game’s competitive dynamic with Kendrick Lamar is par the course for hip-hop, though. While some folks believe there’s genuine beef there, Game’s comments don’t really indicate much beyond a mutual respect and just being on different paths with different circles. So maybe folks criticizing this 6ix God allegiance should engage with more nuance in their assessments.

According to Hypefresh, the federal May 6 Florida filing in the state’s Southern District court accuses them of hiding Tasha’s assets so she could avoid paying that judgement over Cardi B’s victorious defamation lawsuit against her. The suit alleges fraudulent transfers and other money-hiding moves. It also claims Yelen Entertainment began right after the judgement came down from a judge in 2022 and moved all operations and revenue out of Tasha K’s old company, Kebe Studios. Reportedly, they shut down that old company.

In addition, the lawsuit claims Yelen took all YouTube revenue (allegedly comprised of $356K in gross receipts) and that Tasha transferred a home interest to Cheickna Kebe for just a dollar. Allegations also reportedly emerged about possible offshore trusts, and we’ll see how a court responds to all these claims.

Cardi reportedly wants the court to undo transfers and treat Yelen the same as Kebe Studios, possibly leading to a larger judgement due to interest and legal fees. But a bankruptcy court must approve all of this for it to move forward as a jury trial.

Why Did Cardi B Sue Tasha K?

For those unaware, this long-running Cardi B and Tasha K saga has its roots in a defamation lawsuit from the former to the latter over her Internet claims. A Georgia court ruled in Cardi’s favor back in 2022, leading to a nearly $4 million judgement against Tasha including legal fees and the like.

Tasha K has been struggling with this payment, but she did find some solace after filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in Florida and the approval of a less hefty payment plan.

But this new reported lawsuit shows the difficulty of not just paying up, but getting others to do so. We’ll see how all this drama eventually wraps up one day.

The track, which also features Molly Santana, is one of the most talked-about cuts on this new LP. In the BTS footage caught by Kurrco on Twitter, you can see wardrobe considerations, location details, and some of the fancy cars they show off in the visual. However, while some fans continue to rejoice at this reunion, others are much more skeptical, critical, or cynical.

“Not together for one shot I know what that is,” one popular quote-tweet of the original post read. Other reactions in quote-tweets or replies sections posited that Pluto just wants “Ran To Atlanta” to go number one, and that this might just be a simple verse trade with the 6ix God rather than an actual reconciliation.

Meanwhile, other fans questioned why this hatchet burial would even happen in the first place. In any case, it seems like this isn’t slowing down any momentum, so fans’ debates will just have to continue until they get a more definitive picture.

Drake & Future Beef

For those unaware, Drake’s squashed beef with Future was one of the biggest apparent betrayals in the Kendrick Lamar saga. Many criticized “Ran To Atlanta” being on ICEMAN, where Drizzy shoots at all his opposition. Considering Kendrick started this whole thing on a Fewtch and Metro Boomin hit, many find his inclusion on the new album to be hypocritical. Also, their collab album series featured many other apparent shots at Drizzy from folks like The Weeknd and A$AP Rocky.

But the tensions between the What A Time To Be Alive duo were never super clear. Fans theorized it was over women, whereas others think the ATL MC just had more loyalty for Metro (who had more present OVO beef) than he did for the Toronto superstar.

Either way, Future’s celebrating his Drake reunion elsewhere, even if fans are scrutinizing it heavily. Maybe more behind-the-scenes footage would help clear things up.

As caught by The Shade Room on Instagram, Nicki shared some videos of her at the facility, jokingly pretending to be a news correspondent and referencing her track “Starships.”

“Oh, hello everyone,” she said in one of her videos amid bouts of uncontainable laughter. “Thank you for coming. I’m reporting live from Starbase Texas. And we wanted to remind you guys that starships are, indeed… meant to fly! *laughs* Over and out!” The Queen of the Barbz clicked her tongue, smiled at the camera, and threw a thumbs-up.

“When you lied on your resume but now you gotta really do your job as an astronaut correspondent & it’s all or nothing,” Nicki reportedly tweeted.

It’s unclear if this was just a supportive visit to see a launch or if there was another reason for her attendance. Either way, it seems like the Trinidadian superstar had a great time.

Nicki Minaj’s Starbase Visit

“Major shoutout to Elon. Thank you for everything that you’re doing for humanity,” Nicki Minaj said during her Starbase visit. We will see if she speaks more about Elon Musk, this visit, or the conversation surrounding her appearance at the event.

While many fans connected this move to Nicki Minaj’s controversial support of Donald Trump, this might be a bit more complicated. After all, Trump and Elon Musk had a big falling-out last year, although it seems like they have tried to mend things since then.

As such, maybe this could be a bridge in that dynamic or Nicki is just amplifying her circle of influence in the world of politics, business, and technology. It got her a lot more heat, but she’s been very clear about sticking by her views and expressions. For better or worse, Minaj has more feathers to ruffle.

According to Bars on Instagram, this new album trilogy amassed 635 million streams on the streaming service in their first week on the platform. The specific breakdown puts ICEMAN at 450 million, MAID OF HONOUR at 95 million, and HABIBTI at 90 million. It’ll only be a matter of time before they collectively hit the billion streams mark.

This is just a small part of Drake’s overall first week sales for the ICEMAN trilogy, which folks expect to represent historic achievements and milestones in various categories. Whether it’s the performance of the albums or specific tracks, we could have a lot of new chart records on our hands.

In fact, the 6ix God already broke one in the United Kingdom, becoming the first artist in the U.K.’s Official Album Chart’s history to simultaneously debut three albums in the chart’s top ten. ICEMAN went number one, MAID OF HONOUR got to six, and HABIBTI got to seven.

Drake’s Billboard Projections

View this post on Instagram

A post shared by Bars (@bars)

As for Drake’s projected Billboard debuts for the ICEMAN trilogy, there are more milestones to talk about. The biggest one is how he could become the first artist ever to simultaneously debut three new albums in Billboard‘s top three. Also, upon ICEMAN‘s official number one debut per projections, he will break his tie with Jay-Z for the most chart-topping albums by a male soloist.

Drake is also aiming for Billboard Hot 100 dominance. He could occupy 14 of the chart’s top 15 slots. Also, if the Toronto superstar secures a number one song (which he most likely will), he will break his tie with Michael Jackson for the most chart-topping singles by a male soloist.

In the streaming era, platforms like Spotify are leading that commercial charge. So these first week streams numbers are no surprise.

The upper is covered in a silver and white glitter material that references MJ’s iconic bedazzled glove. The hangtag visible in the box reads “STELLA” and “LOOK SEE,” indicating this is still a sample rather than a finalized production shoe.

The entire upper appears to use a glittered look that catches light across every panel. The support wings and hardware carry a polished silver metallic finish.

The laces are cream or off-white, which adds some contrast against all the silver and glitter. Looking closely at the heel, you can make out what appears to be a crown or decorative emblem debossed into the upper material.

This isn’t the first time Jordan Brand has connected the AJ4 to Michael Jackson. The “Spotlight” colorway referencing his music video appearance in early Jordans is already on the 2027 release calendar. A glitter glove sample like this suggests Jordan Brand is exploring multiple MJ-inspired directions on the AJ4 simultaneously.

No release information has been confirmed for this particular sample. It may never reach retail in this form. Samples often go through significant changes between the look-see stage and any eventual production run. Still, the concept is bold enough that it would generate a lot of attention if it ever did release.

Air Jordan 4 Michael Jackson “White Glitter Glove” Sample

Michael Jackson’s connection to Jordan Brand and Nike goes back to the late 1980s. He was famously photographed wearing early Air Jordan samples during that era, and the two cultural icons overlapped at the peak of their respective careers.

The bedazzled white glove became one of MJ’s most recognizable accessories, worn during performances and public appearances throughout the 1980s. Using that glove as the design reference for an AJ4 upper is a direct and literal interpretation of that connection.

The glitter textile shown on this sample covers every panel of the shoe, leaving very little conventional material visible. It reads more like a costume piece than a wearable sneaker at this stage.

In a recent livestream clip caught by CY Chels on Twitter, Akademiks posited that The Boy’s beef with Kendrick Lamar is way more significant and consequential than his issues with the Harlem creative. He called the OVO mogul and the A$AP Mob boss’ dynamic more of an “interpersonal issue” between then and Rihanna, the former’s former muse and the latter’s love of his life. “This is d**k and p***y business,” the streamer remarked, pointing out how Rocky was with Drake’s son Adonis’ mother.

“I like Drake’s music more, but I don’t want to see a full-on bullying,” DJ Akademiks replied. “I kind of want A$AP to fight back a little bit. A$AP, you don’t got nothing going, bro? Fight back, crodie. Make it interesting. They’re arguing over women…

He mentioned A$AP Rocky’s Drake references on Don’t Be Dumb, but he doesn’t find this to be sufficient. Ak thinks the 6ix God is just kicking his back in for little reason and is always shooting “headshots” for him. “I kind of feel bad… Rocky, you got to hit back…” he said. The streamer also brought up Drake fans clowning A$AP Rocky’s recent performance, criticizing them for downplaying Rocky that much.

Also, he doesn’t think A$AP would win a lyrical war with the Toronto superstar, but he hopes he can respond better in some way.

Drake’s A$AP Rocky Beef

This whole beef saga has Rihanna in the middle. At least, that’s how fans and A$AP Rocky himself have characterized it, although he said it was more about women in general rather than RiRi specifically.

Funnily enough, Rihanna may have responded to Drake’s A$AP Rocky disses by promoting his upcoming tour on TikTok. Akademiks said what many fans are thinking: Drizzy seems fully committed to trashing Rocky, but Rocky’s meager responses are making both sides look a little crazy. Still, many fans think the best response Rocky could offer is living a beautiful life with the woman Drake thought would be the love of his life.

It’s also important to note that DJ Akademiks recently interviewed A$AP Rocky about a lot of these issues. So it makes sense he would want to make sure both sides have a say in the matter.
