Young Dolph Lives On In Posthumous Single

Celebs

In honor of what would have been his 37th birthday, Young Dolph’s  label Paper Route Empire has released his first posthumous single, “Hall of Fame.”

Young Dolph was shot and killed in his hometown of Memphis in November 2021, Before his death, Young Dolph had already secured a legacy as an independent rapper who became one of the city’s biggest recent breakthroughs.
The song follows the rapper’s first posthumous feature, on Gucci Mane’s “Blood All on It,” from earlier this year and a Paper Route Empire compilation Long Live Dolph compilation featuring tributes from his labelmates, including Key Glock, Jay Fizzle, and Big Moochie Grape released in January.
The Bandplay-produced track finds Dolph at his best, flexing while reflecting on his tireless grind and the legacy he left behind. Compares his hustle to the drug kingpin Frank Matthews and also boasts about meetings with Jay-Z’s Roc Nation (even shooting his shot at a verse with Jay) and earning his first million, over a victorious, strings-laden beat.

“When I was 16, I said ‘It ain’t even about me no more’ / This PRE on my chest, it’s a multi-million dollar logo,”he raps, “You can walk in any trap and I bet they know my name / Frank Matthews of the South, put me in the hall of fame…”

Dolph’s girlfriend, Mia Jaye, also shared a touching tribute to the father of her two children, writing, “Happy Heavenly Birthday My Love.”

Justin Johnson and Cornelius Smith the two men in connection with his murder, outside a Memphis Cookie store, have been charged with first-degree murder in the shooting, along with attempted murder for shooting at Dolph’s brother as well. Both pleaded not guilty.

Official Images Of The Travis Scott x Air Jordan 1 Low OG “Reverse Mocha”

Sneaker Releases

Arguably one of 2022’s most anticipated sneaker releases, the Travis Scott Jordan 1 Low “Reverse Mochas” is set to drop on July 21st.

Travis Scott confirms the release of the Air Jordan 1 Reverse Mocha by posting a photo of him wearing the new kicks on his Instagram.

Similarly, designed to his Low Dark Mocha dropped in 2019 the Reverse Mocha features a familiar color palette of sail, dark mocha, and university red. However, the Reverse Mocha comes in a lighter brown and white palette, a slight variation on the Dark Mocha, which is primarily black and dark brown.

A recognizable design that was executed by Travis Scott and the Jordan Brand team is its enlarged reverse Swoosh logo that sees its belly tucked into the midsole, this Air Jordan 1 Low OG certainly alarmed Air Jordan 1 fans for the drastic change, but it has since been a catalyst for disruptive design in sneaker collaborations.

Just like the first release, the Travis Scott Jordan 1 Low features a variety of emblems such as the Cactus Jack on the heel, the type-written arrangement on the tongue and upper, and a variety of sticker-like appliques on the insole.

While pricing has not been confirmed, we can expect the Travis Scott AJ1 Reverse Mocha to cost about $200. Reselling for over $2000 CAD if anyone wants to snatch an early pair, it might be wiser to wait, as the resell prices should come down after the big release. They’re expected to come in full family sizes; one can only pray to land a pair in any size via retail.

See the official images below and stay tuned for updates.
