According to MediaTakeout, Kanye West isn’t stopping at Nike – and isn’t stopping at Louis Vuitton. Kanye has his heart set at teaming up with Jordan Brand to add another notch to his designer repertoire and his fashion resume. MediaTakeout states:
“According to a pretty well placed source, Kanye is negotiating to design a limited edition pair of Nike Air Jordan’s. The insider claims that negotiations are still early, but that both sides are excited about working out a deal.”
One can only imagine what Kanye would have up his sleeve if this rumor does come to fruition. The possibilities are endless. Let’s see how this turns out.
Culture Kings is a boutique located in the heart of Miami’s Design District. It features a large selection of independent brands, as well as tons of the big dogs. Well, we decided that we’d invite model/singer/dancer Zuly to do a quick couple of shots inside the walls of Culture Kings. We used a Adidas/Run-DMC theme for one shot and a Jordan VIII Aqua for another. And for our main shot (also pictured above), we used an All-Jordan infused backboard courtesy of Like Mike Clothing.

Its hard to believe that its been more than ten years since Raekwon’s Immobilarity came out. The album was welcomed with mediocre reviews, but there was one gem on the album that was undisputable. From the insane instrumental, to the Nas vocals on the chorus, Raekwon’s “Sneakers” became a cult classic heads to sneakerheads of all generations. Listening to the song ten years later, it still makes sense. Listen below to “Sneakers” by Raekwon

Easily one of the best looking models on the urban modeling scene – Brenda Lynn Acevedo aka Brenda Lynn. A Puerto Rican model from New Jersey. She got one of her early stints at major exposure by being featured in Show Magazine a couple times. And then she was named Miss Howard TV March 2008 on the much-famed Howard Stern show – which on the show she revealed that she is/was dating a professional poker player.
Either way, since then she’s been featured as the voluptuous redhead that was dancing around Lil’ Wayne the video for Keri Hilson’s song “Turnin Me On”. She also made lead appearances in Soulja Boy Tell`Em’s “Bird Walk” and Jay Z’s 2007 hit, “Blue Magic” from the American Gangster album.
Brenda now graces the over of ShowMagazine for the second time now and its conveniently on newsstands right now. She told Show that the magazine actually “opened a lot of doors to a lot of modeling and acting opportunities” for her. She also stated that “modeling is my own little getaway from the real world.”
