Following a tease last week, 2 Chainz shares excitement to work with Italian fashion house Versace. In a short Instagram snippet of his fitting rehearsal, the rapper gave us an official preview of his sneaker project with Versace, aptly named the “Chain Reaction” series.
The featured shoe gets bright green, yellow and orange hues with a white midsole and heavy-chained outsole. Elsewhere, the toe box sees nature motifs while the tongue sports an embossed “Chain Reaction” logo. Other details include green caged middle overlay protecting a vibrant pattern underneath. In the video, the artist dons a black floral motif runway shirt and gives additional glimpses of apparel.
There is currently no information as to when the 2 Chainz x Versace collection will be available. Take a look at the video below and tell us your thoughts.
This afternoon (Jan. 12), Lil Uzi Vert went on Twitter and shared some career advice for up-and-coming rappers: “If y’all do sign … sign 2 a major Dont sign 2 a rapper or a Dj ……..Its Just Easier When The Time Come For That Fake Shit.” Now, what’s weird is that Uzi is signed to DJ Drama and DJ Cannon’s Generation Now label in conjunction with Atlantic Records.
It didn’t take long for Drama to notice the subtle jab. “Lets state the facts and see who REALLY on some fake shit,” Drama wrote. Uzi has been signed to Generation Now since 2015. However, last December the 23-year-old rapper began to express his animosity towards his label. “We all make mistakes 2 get better,” he tweeted. “I should have never signed but I finna turn all this shit upside down ..you know the way it suppose to be.”
During Uzi’s Twitter rant today, other rappers jumped in to respond. Lil Durk tweeted Uzi, telling him to get off social media, while Rich The Kid told the Philly native that the latter should’ve signed to Rich Forever Music, RTK’s label.
Back in December, the YEEZY Desert Rat 500 launched on the YEEZY Supply website in a “Super Moon Yellow” colorway. Now, according to Yeezy Mafia, the model’s next iteration will be delivered in tonal “Blush” coloring. The bulky runner stays true to its original design thanks to its mesh underlays and suede overlays while its exaggerated sole unit steals the show.
There’s no confirmation on this colorway’s release date or if it’ll be a part of another bundle pack, but this new version will surely be coveted by YEEZY sneaker fans. Take a look at the image above and stay tuned for details on a confirmed release.
Having ostensibly put an end to Flight of the Conchords as an HBO series back in 2009, calling it quits no too long after achieving widespread global acclaim, it seems that Jemaine Clement and Bret McKenzie are now ready to pick things up where they left off. Briefly, at least.
According to McKenzie — speaking to The AV Club with the intention of answering questions about an upcoming tour of the United Kingdom — the duo are set to record a one-hour special later this year, first describing it as “a little something” and confirming shortly after that it would be “an hour thing.”
While fans of the show are likely to be excited by the news, HBO has confirmed that moves are being made, with the caveat that “The deals are not fully in place. We’ll hopefully have news soon and will be back in touch,” it seems that things are looking good but that nothing is yet set in stone. Meanwhile, in other HBO-related news, check out the latest on new Game Of Thrones.
HBO‘s adaptation of Ray Bradbury’s Fahrenheit 451 boasts some major star power: Black Panther star Michael B. Jordan and Academy Award nominee Michael Shannon both take on the film’s lead roles.
Bradbury’s work centers around a future in which society seeks out and destroys books by setting them on fire, then a commentary on the censorship of the McCarthy trials. The brief teaser offered by HBO looks to stay true to the source material — unlike the 1966 sci-fi adaptation — focusing on a copy of Pride and Prejudice set aflame atop a pile of other burning books before one of the novel’s firemen strides into frame and blasts the books with a flamethrower.
Work on the film began in 2016, and it’s set to debut this spring. Stay tuned for further updates and trailers. Elsewhere, the entertainment giant recently teased the latest season of Silicon Valley
