As fans were gearing up to digest the next to episode of ESPN’s Docu-series The Last Dance, last night photos of the sneakers the league banned Michael from wear have surfaced.

Thanks to GoodwinSports sharing images of the original Nike Air Ship sporting a Michael Jordan’s signature on the collar. These are one of only two pairs that were given to Michael Jordan during his rookie season in 1984.

The Nike Air Ship “Banned” came dressed in black leather base with Red overlays on the eyelets, Swooshes, and heels along with matching colored Nike tongues and rubber outsole.

We all know the story how during the Chicago Bulls rookie training camp in 1984 the NBA sent a memo to the team prohibiting the sneaker from being worn in a game. However what gets confused in the story are the actual shoe the memo referred too. The iconic Jordan 1 silhouette in the Black/Red color way debuted in 1985.

Grab a detailed look below at an actual signed pair from GoodwinSports as these were one of the first two pairs of Jordan sneakers that Nike gave MJ back in 1984.

While we’re all stuck in the house, during this self quarantine period Drake has come to bright our spirts with a new dance that is TikTok ready.

“It go right foot up, left foot, slide / Left foot up, right foot, slide.”

Drake’s new single “Toosie Slide” released Friday at midnight, the OZ-produced track was leaked Sunday, when social media influencer/dancer Toosie posted a how-to video of the record’s titular dance.

“Drake hit me up and was like, ‘Yo, I need your help,'” Toosie told Rolling Stone. “So he sends the record. It was just an idea at the time. It was just the hook and a verse. I came up with this dance. [Drake said,] ‘What you think? You think you can come up with a dance for this song that I made?’ So I sit down, listen to it. Luckily, I’m at Ayo and Teo’s house with Hii Key and all of us. We all chilling. We came up with it pretty fast. We just all pieced it together. We all contributed.”

The accompanying video was shot by Theo Skudra which has Drake taking us on a grade tour of his 35,000-square-foot mansion nicknamed “The Embassy” showing off dance moves in the marble foyer. He goes from the living room to the massive kitchen, showcasing his lavish digs before ending outside in the backyard as fireworks explode over the night sky.

The instant success of the single had Atlanta rapper Lil Baby share over Instagram “@champagnepapi Sent Me This Song A Month Ago My Dumb Ass Ain’t Send The Verse Bacc !! But That’s Big Bro We Got Shit Comingggggg !!! ‘Toosie Slide’ Out Now.”

“Toosie Slide” is the first solo single for Drake since “When to Say When” and “Chicago Freestyle” in February. Durning these trying time Drake has been hard at work creating the follow up to 2018’s Scorpion which will be shorter in length maybe around 10,11,16 tracks. He also told BBC Radio 1Xtra’s Tiffany Calver that he’s going to do an album release party in London.

The best pep talk you could hear over a bouncy, electro-R&B. That’s right Khalid is back with the visual for  “Know Your Worth,” which features a big colorful dance party.

As Khalid sings “All the things I know that you deserve… Say it’s not real if it doesn’t hurt… Find someone you know will put you first… Find someone who loves you at your worst…”  he gives the listener the message of having self-love.

The Free Spirit single comes in clutch with upbeat vibes for the upcoming weekend, as “Know your Worth” is the second collaboration with British production duo Disclosure. The first was last year’s Grammy-nominated track “Talk.”  The new visual directed by Daniel Russell, Khalid teams up with dancers dressed in colorful ’90s-style tracksuits. Whose joyful choreography represents his words of abandoning bad relationships and having more supportive ones.

Future Releases New Single Tycoon

Future Releases New Single Tycoon

Teasing new music yesterday, Future drops off his latest single “Tycoon” with an accompanying visual.

The track produced by Dy Krazy and Wheezy has a chilling tone with the signature boom of the 808s, the message given by the Life is Good rapper is that once you become the boss there is always somebody gunning for your spot.

As he raps “I’m a ty-tycoon, that’s why they hate me,” Future raps in the chorus. “‘Till they throw the sheets on me I’m goin’ crazy, Got Balencis on my feet, they can’t take me/I know I ain’t gon’ be deceased ’til I’m like eighty.”

Earlier this year we saw the Atlanta native team up with Drake in “Life Is Good,” and “Desires.” “Tycoon,” might be the prelude to a new solo album, though no date has been confirmed.

In the Eif Rivera-directed video, these words of wisdom manifest themselves. In what could be the final scene in any classic gangster film, the video opens up with Future taking some time out to pray, while it cut to a group of men gearing up to carry out the plot to either rob/take him out. In the back in forth shift between the two parties, we see Future going through his day as usual until that night he and his girl get into the car and ride. We see the group of men pull up with ski masks and guns in hand only to an empty home. While their targets are caught a private jet.
