Black sketched figures cover the white overlays creating an artistic, hand-drawn aesthetic inspired by graffiti. A black tumbled leather Swoosh provides classic contrast against the busy graphic upper materials.

“RECORDS” text appears embossed on the lateral heel in Travis Scott’s signature branding style. Brown outsoles complete the earthy color palette with vintage skate-inspired appeal and functionality built in. There are currently no confirmed plans for an official retail release of this sample.

However, Travis Scott previously released a similar Nike Dunk that shares design DNA with this version. Samples like these often remain exclusive to friends and family or never release at all. The all-over graphic print resembles crowd scenes or abstract figures packed across the overlays.

This artistic approach aligns with Travis Scott’s creative vision and music festival aesthetic perfectly throughout. The SB Dunk Low silhouette provides the ideal canvas for his experimental design concepts.

Travis’s Nike collaborations consistently rank among the most coveted sneakers in resale markets worldwide. Even unreleased samples generate massive hype when images leak online to sneaker communities and forums.

This particular pair could potentially release later, but nothing has been officially confirmed by Nike. Collectors can only hope this sample eventually makes it to production for wider availability someday.

Overall this pair definitely stays consistent with the Travis aesthetic. The sketched figures create this chaotic energy that feels very Travis Scott concert vibes.

The tan and brown color palette keeps things grounded despite the busy upper graphics. Black Swooshes always work perfectly on Dunks regardless of the base colorway chosen. “RECORDS” branding connects to Travis’s Cactus Jack Records label and musical identity clearly.

The SB Dunk Low silhouette is perfect for collaborations because of its skate heritage. This sample proves Travis continues pushing creative boundaries even on unreleased projects constantly.

Hopefully Nike decides to actually release these because they’re genuinely unique and interesting.

Bronny actually previewed the logo back in January wearing custom pink Nike LeBron Witness 9s. The shoes featured his new “B” emblem on the heel during a Lakers game appearance. Those pink sneakers created buzz at the time, but the logo’s official status remained unclear.

Now the trademark filing makes everything official for the young Lakers guard and Nike athlete. The logo will cover footwear, headwear, shirts, and sweatpants according to trademark documents filed. Nike owns the rights to the wordmark under International Class 025 for clothing categories.

This represents a major milestone in Bronny’s journey as a professional basketball player and brand. Following in his father LeBron’s footsteps, Bronny secures his own signature branding early in his career. The Gothic-inspired “B” design stands out as unique compared to typical athlete logo aesthetics.

The logo’s sharp edges and bold presence reflect Bronny’s emerging identity separate from his father. Nike clearly sees long-term potential in building Bronny James as a distinct brand entity. Expect to see this logo appear on signature apparel and potentially footwear releases soon.

That Gothic “B” logo is pretty striking and different from most NBA player branding. It’s got serious edge and personality that sets it apart from typical signatures.

The pink LeBron Witness 9s he wore looked incredible with the black logo contrasting. Those shoes had pink uppers with white midsoles and pink outsoles for full vibrant vibes.

The LeBron Witness line is known for affordable performance basketball shoes with solid tech. Bronny wearing his dad’s signature line with his own logo creates interesting brand synergy.

The fact Nike filed this officially means they’re committed to building Bronny’s brand long-term. This is a smart move getting his logo established early in his professional career.

“I hit my head, twisted my neck up my back, f*cked my arm up because I’m gonna have to get surgery on my arm, on my shoulder, and possibly my elbow,” he explained. “She made a big stink about him being in school. […] She kept him out of school in Miami. Couldn’t got kept back. I got him back in school. He’s been going to school six weeks.”

Allegedly, Benzino was waiting for his son at his bus stop when he saw him get forced into Diamond’s vehicle. “All I see is Zino getting thrown on the other side, take, take to the other side of the truck and was thrown in,” he recalled. “All I know is that I jumped on the car. I put my body on the car towards the back door. […] I think the window was open, so I put my hand in the door.”

“I just heard the car rev up and just go in and get it, took off. […] It flung me around, kind of f*cked me up,” he continued. “This poor kid, 10 years old, man. He’s a great kid. […] You put him through this. Awful b*tches. You did it in front of his whole class on the bus. You scared him, everybody.”

Diamond denies hitting Benzino with her car. During a livestream shortly after the Source icon was hospitalized, she accused him of lying, insisting that she was peacefully trying to help out a friend.

“Nobody hit you with no motherf*cking car,” she declared. “You’re weird as f*ck.”

The topic arose with Uzi selecting a lyric that “means a lot” to them. In doing so, he brought up the third verse from “POP,” in which he repeats “Balenci'” over a dozen times.

“Around that time, I really was swiping my card to the max,” he explained. “I was keeping up with Kanye West around that time. The reason I say Kanye West is because he was covering a heavy tab. He was putting all his clothes in storage. He was spending millions, and I was too, but the crazy thing is that I’m pretty sure he could afford it 10 times more than me.”

Elsewhere in the interview, Uzi discussed their plans for their next album. “You gotta understand, I got so many flows,” they said. “My fans don’t really appreciate when I make a big mainstream song. They say, ‘Well, we want a trapped-out Uzi.’ Then I make a trap song and they say, ‘Uzi, you know better than this, you make quality music, we can’t even hear it.’ So instead of meeting those people in the middle, I make two different genres of music… I have my real drops that I usually drop on holidays or I have a countdown.” They have yet to officially announce the project.

Having not put out a full-length effort since Eternal Atake 2 in 2024, fans are growing impatient for another project. Regardless, Uzi says there’s no pressure to speed up their next release. “I don’t feel pressure, bro,” they explained. “I’m gonna tell you right now: everybody that don’t pay attention to me, [they] got they life going on. Everybody that pay attention to me [too much], it’s somehow coded that I’m better than you. They be trying to make it like we supposed to drop one album a year.”

During a recent interview with Real Lyfe Productions, Benzino issued his response, making it clear that he’s not messing around.

“If you a man and if you really got a problem with me, then let’s fight, let’s get it all over with, because I don’t want to keep going through this, because somebody’s gonna get hurt for real,” he said. “And it ain’t gonna be me. Because in my head, I know what I got to do. I’m not gonna be getting shot up, beat up. I done been shot up before. I’m not getting shot up no more. I’m gonna shoot first, and it’s gonna be questions later.”

Why Was Benzino Hospitalized?

As for how Benzino got his injuries in the first place, he alleges that Eaton’s friend Diamond hit him with her car. Diamond denied this during a recent livestream, insisting that she was simply helping out her friend.

“Sending me a picture with your no neck a** laying with a f*cking brace on your neck talking about ‘I struck you with my new car.’ And then how do you even know my car new? Like n****s is weird as f*ck,” she declared. “So I came on here to clear my name up because b*tch, nobody hit you with no motherf*cking car. You’re weird as f*ck. That ain’t got sh*t to do with me. I was bringing my friend to come check on her son and do a wellness check on her son.”

“She has primary custody,” Diamond continued. “She has paperwork to prove that. That’s why when we got to the scene, she called the police and told them, ‘I’m checking on my son,’ provided paperwork, xyz. Now all of a sudden, you’re in the hospital with a brace on your neck. When the doctor records come back, I’m sure it’s gonna show that n***a, you did not get hit by a f*cking car.”

On Monday, Meek garnered some attention for something that some fans won’t be super enthusiastic about, given the sensitive nature of the topic at hand. Of course, we are talking about the Epstein Files.

As part of the Epstein investigation, Bill and Hillary Clinton are being deposed. These depositions are being filmed and have been turned into a classic case of political theater. With that in mind, the recent deposition involving Bill Clinton has been going viral for a few reasons.

One of those reasons involves his long-time attorney, Cheryl Mills. Mills has decades of experience under her belt and was quite vocal during the deposition. For those who were unfamiliar, her command of the law was impressive, and it certainly piqued the curiosity of Meek Mill.

“I want her to be my lawyer. What is her name?” Meek asked. “Seriously.” There were some who found it odd that Meek Mill didn’t know who Cheryl Mills was to begin with. You can’t really blame him for that. People don’t carry around encyclopedias on former Presidential attorneys everywhere they go.

Others were a bit surprised that Meek would want to associate with an attorney who is defending Bill Clinton amid the Epstein situation. Whatever the case may be, this is yet another example of how Meek cannot seem to win when it comes to public perception.

Whatever the case may be, the Epstein situation remains one of the biggest stories in the world. Although the war in Iran has taken precedence, there are still folks who are zeroed in on Epstein. Overall, it is a rough story, albeit one that must be told.

The post prompted various other peers to share their own heartfelt tributes to the late icon. This includes Questlove, who took to Instagram to post album covers of some of the notable projects Power worked on.

“Whether you know it or not, one of these albums changed your life,” he captioned the post. “You could NOT encounter a more engaging, enthusiastic, laser focused craftsman of sound and Sonic’s (engineer/mixing/production) I mean he’d let me bug him ad nausea about ‘what does this button do? that button?’ Bob was our training wheels for how to present music. I’m so devastated by his passing. Thank you for changing all of our lives Bob.”

Erykah Badu also honored Power in an Instagram post shared last night. “What a great loss for the music community today,” she wrote. “The great engineer, producer, mentor and friend Bob Power has traveled on. We appreciate you. You taught me soo much. Baduizm is thee most bass heavy singing album in history. … I’m listening tonight in your honor.”

Bob Power was born in Chicago in 1952. He later moved to New York City and then to St. Louis to attend Webster College for music theory. Power proceeded to work in both New York and California, ultimately getting involved in the world of hip-hop.

Power eventually became an Arts Professor at the Clive Davis Institute of Recorded Music at New York University’s Tisch School of the Arts. He was nominated for two Grammy awards throughout his career. At the time of writing, Bob Power’s cause of death has not been made public.

This reputation certainly won’t be going away anytime soon. Especially when you consider the rant he went on during his most recent stream. It was here that Akademiks spoke at length about the recent trend of women turning to god.

About a year ago, Brittany Renner converted to Islam after years of her relationships being in the public eye. Meanwhile, India Love recently came out and said that she would be turning to God. She noted that she felt taken advantage of in her youth. This is why she wanted to decenter men and find purpose elsewhere.

While these are certainly noble pursuits, Akademims believes there is cynicism behind them. He provided that cynical perspective on stream, and there is no denying that some will take offense to what he is saying.

DJ Akademiks Rants On Stream

As you can see in the clip above, Akademiks accuses India Love and Brittany Renner of being “whores” who are only using God as a way to rebrand themselves. He also goes on to say that if he were to check Cassie’s Instagram account, he would probably see something similar.

It is an assumption that is most certainly rooted in some kind of misogyny. It’s hard not to feel Ak’s hatred of women seething through the screen during this clip. Having said that, this has proven to play well with his audience. Over the years, his audience has encouraged these kinds of hot takes, and as a result, Akademiks takes it all in stride.

Whether or not India Love and Renner will respond to Akademiks is something that remains to be seen. The hip-hop commentator is rarely checked for having these kinds of takes, so it will be interesting to see how this plays out.

Uzi was later asked about visuals for the upcoming album, prompting them to reveal the vision they have this time around. “I gotta change the scene,” they explained. “I can think of it right now, that’s how good I am. Steampunk. Steampunk. Because everything’s too goth, so we’re gonna make it more steampunk.”

When Is Lil Uzi Vert Dropping A New Album?

While Uzi certainly seems to have a lot of big ideas for their next project, they’re not afraid to work at their own pace.

“I don’t feel pressure, bro,” they explained. “I’m gonna tell you right now: everybody that don’t pay attention to me, [they] got they life going on. Everybody that pay attention to me [too much], it’s somehow coded that I’m better than you. They be trying to make it like we supposed to drop one album a year.”

This latest preview arrives just a few days after the Atlanta rapper unleashed on Fif in a fourth diss track. He’s not the only member of his family to take shots at the mogul recently, either.

His 21-year-old son King Harris also released a diss track targeting 50 Cent last week. His other son, 24-year-old Domani, jumped into the feud shortly after with a diss track called “Ms. Jackson.” In it, he references the G-Unit boss’s abuse allegations, antics, and more.

Why Are T.I. & 50 Cent Beefing?

“I want to have a one on one convo about the man you sacrificed your life for so the world could see his talent,” he raps. “He’s a legend now, I guess it worked out, but I need some answers / Are you happy with the way he been holding your family name? / I need to know ’cause I can’t sleep at night thinking you died in vain / I think it got to them, people won’t tell him because he pay them / The emperor’s new clothes, a tale we need to tell.”

T.I. reignited his beef with 50 Cent last month, when he accused him of backing out of a Verzuz battle they had both agreed to. He said that as a result, he’d lost all respect for him. This led to some back-and-forth on social media, which included some low blows directed at each other’s family members and careers, among other things.

Tasha K even recently reported that 50 Cent could have a documentary on T.I. and his wife Tiny in the works, but that remains to be seen.
