@KicksFinder reports that the Travis Scott x Air Jordan 1 Retro High “Reverse Mocha” will be released sometime in the Fall of 2026.

Travis and Jordan Brand have a history of creating instant grails. The original “Mocha” from 2019 still resells for thousands. This “Reverse” version flips the script on that beloved colorway.

White tumbled leather dominates the base instead of the usual sail. Black hits the Swoosh and collar area with texture. Mocha brown lands on the toe box and ankle panels.

That reversed placement is what makes this stand out. The backwards Swoosh is still there on the lateral side, obviously. It’s Travis’s signature move at this point.

The Cactus Jack branding appears on the tongue tag with red stitching. Aged cream midsoles give it that vintage aesthetic right away. One thing’s clear from these photos: the materials look premium. The leather has that quality tumble you want on a Jordan 1.

Mocha suede on the overlays adds texture contrast. Nothing’s confirmed yet about a Fall 2026 release. But these product photos suggest something’s cooking. Travis collabs don’t just appear out of nowhere like this.

Travis Scott x Air Jordan 1 Retro High “Reverse Mocha”

The Travis Scott x Air Jordan 1 “Reverse Mocha” rocks a white tumbled leather base across most of the upper, switching things up from the original mocha colorway. Black leather with a pebbled texture covers the Swoosh and wraps around the collar, while mocha brown suede hits the toe box and ankle area.

The backwards Swoosh sits on the outer side as always with Travis collabs, and you can spot the Cactus Jack branding on the black tongue tag with red contrast stitching.

The midsole has that aged yellowy cream tone that makes it look instantly vintage, sitting on top of a darker brown outsole.

As caught by NFR Podcast on Instagram, Cole reportedly changed the name of his YouTube and Instagram pages for Might Delete Later to The Fall-Off. For those unaware, those pages held vlogs, teases, trailers, music videos, snippets, and audio streams for that 2024 record.

Therefore, many fans hope that we will get similarly consistent, compelling, and revelatory behind-the-scenes content for what’s shaping up to be one of 2026’s most significant musical releases. Not only is The Fall-Off seemingly the last J. Cole project, but fans want to hear how he turns from an ironically modified part of his catalog to a more definitive, enduring, and consequential release.

When Is J. Cole Dropping The Fall-Off?

View this post on Instagram

A post shared by NFR Podcast (@nfrpodcast)

Fortunately for fans, we won’t have to wait long to hear this long-awaited full-length for ourselves and see how he actually sticks the landing. J. Cole’s The Fall-Off drops February 6, and it’s apparently a double album. In fact, we already got the “Disc 2 Track 2” single from it, which is conceptually and rhyme scheme-wise one of his best recent tracks.

Considering other album trailers, teases, and resurfaced clips that fans got amid this rollout, hopefully this Might Delete Later rebrand means that we’ll have even more extra content for this release. Maybe it’s just a way of consolidating and saving resources. After all, having one YouTube or Instagram page can be hard enough as a celebrity. But fans hope that, if anything sticks around from that 20204 period, it’s that extracurricular spirit of the release, giving fans a peep behind the curtain, and keeping to a high quality standard.

Maybe we’ll get answers for these questions very soon. In any case, we’re weeks away from what will hopefully be a landmark J. Cole album.

According to Complex, via the Toronto superstar’s Instagram Story, he recently reposted an IG Reel of producer Never Twice’s beat recreation of his 2010 Thank Me Later record, “Show Me A Good Time.” “Drake in 2010 be like,” the caption reads, showing a clip of Never Twice finding one of the sample sounds in the debut album cut. Then, he recreates the beat piece by piece.

“Drake be like” and “Drake the type of guy” memes flew all over online spaces back around the time that Thank Me Later dropped, and continued in the early 2010s with albums like Take Care. Whether you laughed at them or defended him back in the day, they ring a lot differently now.

What many critics once dogged as a trendy moment became an iconic era for hardcore fans. Given Drake’s recent social media activity, he’s also always down to look back with gratitude and awe. Also, he doesn’t always take himself too seriously, which is a flex when haters’ preconceived notions of you prove irrelevant to your overall success.

Drake’s Discography’s Success

Interestingly enough, this love to Thank Me Later comes amid a big achievement for Drake’s discography. He recently became the first rapper to have ten albums on the Billboard 200 chart at the same time. Thank Me Later landed at number 92 this week.

Drake’s Take Care was the highest charter for this milestone at number 17. Other notable inclusions range from the PARTYNEXTDOOR collab album $ome $exy $ongs 4 U at number 25 to the 21 Savage collab project Her Loss landing right at number 200.

We’re sure ICEMAN will top the chart once it comes out, and have a lot of other commercial success. It will probably also come with a lot of criticisms and memes about the 6ix God. But just like those from 2010, he’s not breaking a sweat, and is just appreciative of fans and fellow artists showing his history some love.

@zsneakerheadz reports that the Nigel Sylvester x Air Jordan 4 “Sail/Cinnabar” will be released on May 9th, 2026.

Nigel’s been a Jordan collaborator for years now, always bringing his unique perspective to classic silhouettes. His previous Jordan 4s have become instant collectibles.

This “Cinnabar” version continues that tradition with a fresh color palette. Sail leather forms the base across the entire upper. Cinnabar red hits the eyelets, heel counter, and outsole for contrast. Black accents show up on the midsole and tongue area.

The mesh panels keep that signature Jordan 4 look intact. What stands out is how wearable this is. Not every collab needs to be loud. Sometimes restraint creates more impact, and Nigel understands that. The sail and red combo feels vintage without trying too hard.

Nike Air branding appears on the heel in classic fashion. Red laces match the cinnabar accents throughout. The aged midsole treatment gives it a slightly worn-in aesthetic from the jump.

Nigel’s collabs always sell out because he gets it. He’s not just slapping his name on shoes. There’s thought behind every detail, from materials to color choices.

Nigel Sylvester x Air Jordan 4 “Cinnabar”

The Nigel Sylvester x Air Jordan 4 “Cinnabar” keeps things relatively simple with a sail leather upper that has this slightly aged off-white tone to it. Cinnabar red pops on the plastic eyelets, wraps around the heel counter, and covers most of the rubber outsole.

Black hits the midsole’s lower portion and appears on the Jumpman branding throughout. You’ve got that classic mesh on the side panels and tongue, keeping the traditional Jordan 4 construction everyone knows.

The Nike Air branding on the back heel sits against the red background, while the slightly yellowed midsole gives it that vintage vibe right out the box.

Also, the retail price of the sneakers will be $230 when they drop.

As caught by FearBuck on Twitter, the group of streamers, commentators, influencers, and “manosphere”-adjacent content creators pulled up to a Miami nightclub while playing the Ye track. Streaming services immediately removed that song upon its release, and it’s resulted in more consequences for Kanye West.

Not only that, but the AF Post shared a video on the social media platform of the nightclub in question playing the “H.H.” song with them in attendance. This resulted in a lot of backlash online. Some folks are trolling those they deem to be sensitive online and celebrating this anti-censorship move. Others, though, expressed deep criticism of the bigotries the record alludes to and the irony of their demographic backgrounds, considering who they’re singing about.

Who Banned Kanye West’s “Heil Hitler”?

Some of these creators have aligned themselves explicitly with far-right political stances, whereas others make edgy content or associate themselves with this side of the Internet. Many Ye fans are probably wondering what he thinks of all this, especially with what’s on the horizon.

Kanye West’s new album BULLY is dropping very soon. Amid his apology for his antisemitism and other “redemption arc” moments, maybe this album will represent a full turn away from the things he previously espoused. Then again, the past is the past. Ye’s track already led to a lot of controversy, and it’s not that easy to just sweep under the rug.

Services like YouTube, Apple Music, and Spotify banned Kanye West’s “Heil Hitler” track due to its antisemitic lyrics and references. But this night out from Clavicular, Andrew and Tristan Tate, Sneako, Nick Fuentes, Myron Gaines, and Justin Weller shows that it sadly still “lives on” on the Internet. If their goal was provocation, it seems like they achieved it, for better or worse.

Here’s how it went down. Select fans got an email from Nike about something special coming their way. A few days later, a physical letter showed up at their door. Inside was a golden ticket confirming they’d won instant access to one launch of their choice.

The ticket is valid between January 19, 2026 and March 29, 2026. That’s over two months of upcoming SNKRS drops to choose from. Winners can pick any shoe launching during that window through the app.

Nike hasn’t revealed how they chose who gets these tickets. It seems completely random based on what people are saying online. Some longtime SNKRS users got them, but so did people who rarely hit on drops. There’s no clear pattern yet.

Nike SNKRS Instant Got ‘Em

The terms and conditions lay out how it works. Winners have to request their chosen shoe at least three business days before launch. Nike can’t guarantee every shoe will be available, even with the golden ticket. But if it’s in stock, you’re getting it. No raffles, no waiting, no Ls.

This move feels different from Nike’s usual approach. They’re rewarding the community in a way that doesn’t require engagement farming or social media contests. Just pure surprise and delight for random members.

It’s also smart timing. SNKRS has faced criticism over the years about bots and fairness. This reminds people that real humans are still winning on the app. Plus, it generates buzz without Nike having to do much marketing.

Only one catch: no returns or exchanges allowed. You commit to the shoe you pick. That’s fair considering you’re getting guaranteed access to potentially sold-out releases.

The sneaker community is going wild over this on social media. People are posting their golden tickets and debating what shoe to use them on. Some are holding out for major releases in February and March.

For last night’s (Satuday, January 17) episode, Finn Wolfhard hosted. Rocky even acted alongside him in a “Snackhomiez” skit with Sabrina Carpenter as well. The Harlem creative performed his two DBD singles “PUNK ROCKY” and “HELICOPTER,” as well as its title track transitioning into the latter single.

He raucously brought back the aesthetics from his “PUNK ROCKY” video with Thundercat, Danny Elfman, and other supporting musicians, and it seemed like a lot of fun. Although some fans still have their issues with A$AP Rocky’s latest release, those tuning in seem quite happy with the results.

We’ll see if he announces a tour soon in addition to his upcoming festival performances. Rocky probably has a lot more to share from this rollout, as he’s been working on it for about eight years.

What Are A$AP Rocky’s First Week Sales For Don’t Be Dumb?

Also, this SNL performance comes amid A$AP Rocky’s Don’t Be Dumb‘s sales success. While we still don’t have first week sales projections, the LP reportedly already sold 130K in vinyl copies.

In addition, we’re getting more information about Rocky’s streaming success amid this drop. He reportedly had his best streaming day ever on Spotify according to Hip Hop All Day on Twitter, securing 47.6 million streams on Friday (January 16).

Not only that, but 35.4 million of those came from Don’t Be Dumb specifically, in addition to 19.86 million in its second day per Hip Hop All Day. Finally, the father of three reportedly was Global Spotify’s most streamed rapper on Friday for the first time in his career, according to Hip Hop All Day.

We’ll see how these numbers translate into first week sales and what other achievements are on the horizon for A$AP Rocky. More importantly, it seems like hardcore fans are very happy with the album as it heads into the rest of 2026.

Turk’s legal battle concerning Cash Money’s anniversary tour was a big background narrative to that absence, plus his feud with Birdman and B.G. that also popped up during this Verzuz. However, Lil Wayne’s absence had a few possible but still vague explanations for it, namely from B.G. and Juvenile. With this in mind, Turk commented on Drink Champs that Wayne would’ve probably showed up if Cash Money and the Hot Boys in their entirety made it to the No Limit battle.

“Not just had I been there, had we been there, you feel me?” he remarked per Complex. “And I think if I would have been there, Wayne would have been there. Not saying [my absence was] the reason that he wasn’t there. But from being in the field with all of us, Wayne hasn’t missed a beat with all of us on the ticket… So Juvie said he knew Wayne wasn’t coming, but why Wayne wasn’t coming, I don’t know. But B.G. say something different. So which one it was? […] I think if we all would have been there, bro, the energy would have been better. The energy was thrown off, you feel me? They was all over the place.”

Why Was Turk Kicked Off Cash Money’s Tour?

However, Turk’s comments about the Hot Boys have an asterisk. He made it clear that this is just his opinion going off of his personal experience, and that he’s not calling anyone a liar over this situation or stating it as presumed fact. The New Orleans MC just looked back at their history and feels like sometimes, it’s all or nothing.

Elsewhere, his legal battle with Cash Money’s 30th anniversary tour promoters continues, as both sides became set for a settlement conference to possibly reach an agreement. Turk claims they wrongfully booted him to avoid paying him more, whereas the promoters claim his beef with B.G. and other factors were causing tour sabotage.

According to The Shade Room, Ari’s new Instagram pictures on Saturday (January 17) caused a flurry of fan reactions, with them reading deeply into the post. While nothing explicitly connects her statements here to those rumors, fans still think she knows the conversation that’s happening. Fletcher used Trim’s “Nobody” as her audio, and the caption read, “My year.”

So maybe she’s responding to all the people talking about her, or this has nothing to do with this drama. Lil Baby and Jayda Cheaves’ relationship was publicly rocky before. But this is now roping in more folks like Fletcher and Moneybagg Yo, her boo that hasn’t publicly or directly responded to this either at press time.

While there have been rumors about Moneybagg and Ari’s relationship dynamic before, it seems like they brushed the news right off their shoulders. TSR reports that he just posted a video on IG of him flexing his cash, so he seems quite unbothered.

What Did Jayda Cheaves Say About Lil Baby & Ari Fletcher?

A post shared by The Shade Room (@theshaderoom)

For those unaware, while Jayda Cheaves didn’t name-drop Lil Baby or Ari Fletcher, her comments on her TikTok livestream seemed to directly respond to a fan asking about their alleged romantic fling. “Them rumors are true, no shade,” she remarked. “That’s been going on, has been a thing, but I don’t want to talk about it. Like, literally, let’s not talk about it… It’s not rumors, that s**t is true.”

All the while, Ari Fletcher and Moneybagg Yo are still strong, and we’ll see if Baby or Jayda speak on this situation in the future. While these famous faces will probably just move on with their lives, fans still want to know the tea. It would speak to long-standing rumors, although Cheaves never clarified if this was in a cheating context or a more general sense.

If you know Larry, you know he’s got serious taste in sneakers. The “Orange Print” artist has always kept his footwear game on point. He’s been spotted in everything from vintage New Balance to rare Nike SBs over the years.

But lately, he’s been leaning heavy into classic runners and retro models. The Adistar Control 5 he’s wearing looks straight out of the early 2000s archives. Metallic silver meshes with vibrant orange, yellow, and neon green across the upper.

There’s also hits of blue and red throughout the design. It’s loud in the best way possible. Adidas has been bringing back performance runners from that era lately. Models like the Adistar Cushion and Response CL have found new audiences.

The Control 5 fits right into that wave of nostalgia. Larry captioned the post “2026” with two egg emojis and a basketball. Subtle but effective. He’s clearly got early access to something special here.

Larry June Adidas

The unreleased Adistar Control 5 that Larry June’s rocking is pure early 2000s energy with metallic silver mesh as the base and these wild gradient overlays flowing from orange to yellow. You’ve got neon green accents near the laces and heel, plus pops of blue and red woven into the design that make it feel like a sunset on your feet.

The chunky white midsole keeps it grounded while adding that retro running shoe vibe. The whole thing just screams Y2K performance aesthetic but in a way that actually works today, especially with how runners have come back into style recently.

Whether you’re a Larry June fan or just love wild colorways, this one’s worth watching. Adidas hasn’t officially announced it yet, but seeing it on Larry’s feet is basically confirmation. Keep your eyes open for more details!
