/ StaFFF / Leave a comment

The posthumous Pop Smoke album Shoot For The Stars Aim For The Moon has finally dropped. Executive produced by 50 Cent, this album has a who’s who of spectacular guest appearances including Quavo, Lil Baby, DaBaby, Swae Lee, Future, Roddy Ricch, Lil Tjay and of course 50 Cent.

With the ongoing issues of police brutality as well as the Black Lives Matter movement last month, Pop’s album was pushed back from June to July 3.

Steven Victor stated:

The public show of support and grief, by everyone touched by Pop during his lifetime, has provided some semblance of comfort during these difficult times for his family, friends, and colleagues… Music is the tool of revolution. We have been watching, along with the rest of the world, as long overdue change starts to take root. We have seen Pop’s music become the soundtrack of the moment, unifying the masses.

adidas executive Karen Parkin will step down following recent protests within the company. Parkin is at the center of the mistreatment employees have been facing at the company’s Portland headquarters.

According to the Wall Street Journal, in 2019 Parkin called the issue of racism “noise” and that adidas had no issues of it. What’s even more ironic is adidas issued a statement on June 9 stating plans to create a more inclusive workforce as well as improved environment involving their hiring practices.

Parkin had this to say:

While we have made progress in many areas, there is much more work to be done. However, it has become clear to me that to unify the organization it would be better for me to retire and pave the way for change. Now is the right time for a new HR leader to take over the function, to seize the opportunity before us and drive forward the pace of change to create a more diverse and inclusive adidas that we can all be proud of.

/ StaFFF / Leave a comment

The Air Jordan 7 “Hare” was definitely one of the more popular, and some would say iconic, colorways of the silhouette. The Air Jordan 6 “Hare” sees what would happen if you apply the same design scheme.

Jordan Brand will now be releasing the Air Jordan 6 “Hare” that will feature a very similar color palette as the Air Jordan 7 which was released back in ‘92. One subtle yet standout detail of the sneaker is the lace-lock that’s made to look like a carrot, perfectly tying together the design with the name.

Priced at $190 USD, the Air Jordan 7 “Hare” will drop on June 17.
