Union is one of the most well-known sneaker establishments in Los Angeles and over the years, there have been a whole slew of collaborations coming out between them and Jumpman. One of those collaborations was the Air Jordan 1 High OG which dropped back in 2018. Last year, the two teamed up for two brand new Air Jordan 4 offerings and in 2021, Union is coming right back with two more Jordan 4s as a way to commemorate the brand’s 30th anniversary.
These two new offerings can be found in the renderings below which were provided by @pyleaks on Twitter. The colorways that have been unveiled here are “Desert Moss/Turqouise Blue/Dark Iris” and “Taupe Haze/Blue Fury/Khaki/Roma Green.” Both offerings are fairly unique and we’re sure sneakerheads will be a bit taken aback by the different color palettes that are being used here. Regardless, Union is known for changing things up a bit and once the official images come out, we’re sure there will be some more clarity to these colorways.
As for when these will be set to drop, it is believed that the summer is the target season. We will be sure to bring you all of the latest information, so keep it locked to HNHH for more updates.
This Tuesday, Minnesota police officer Derek Chauvin was found guilty of second-degree unintentional murder, third-degree murder, and second-degree manslaughter for killing George Floyd last May. The conviction happened nearly a year after Floyd’s death, but seeing as 98.3 percent of murders by police from 2013-2020 resulted in no charges, many were glad to finally see Chauvin behind bars. Along with many other celebrities, Travis Scott was among those grateful for the sentencing.
Scott recently sat down for an interview with AP to discuss his thoughts surrounding the trial. Along with feeling “glad” that Floyd was able to get justice, Scott says he hopes the world can eventually “get to a more balanced” place:
“I mean, we felt that we finally got justice toward some sh*t that was just very disgusting. For it to take so long to finally catch something like a verdict like this for the things that happen every day—even during the week of his trial, you’re seeing still it’s continuing—I’m glad that it’s justice for the Floyd family. Now that we can try to work forward to even just try to stop it, in a mass picture, you get what I’m saying? Trying to get to the next step where we can halt this attack, whether it’s from the police or any walking person and just try to get to a more balanced spot in the world. Because this sh*t, it’s just crazy.”
Along with Scott, other musicians who shared reactions to Chauvin’s conviction include Cardi B, Megan Thee Stallion, Questlove, Mariah Carey, Common, and many more.

Jake Paul has been taking a nice little victory lap following his dominant defeat of Ben Askren at Triller Fight Club. The YouTube influencer has already shut down the possibility of fighting Askren again, claiming that they had a deal set to appear at a wrestling pay-per-view, which he has backed out of. After knocking out the retired UFC fighter in less than a minute, it makes sense that Paul would want to move onto bigger and better opponents.
As he celebrates his big win from the weekend, Jake Paul was a guest on his brother Logan’s Impaulsive podcast, where he bragged about all of the people that have been congratulating him on the fight. According to Jake, even Drake reached out to show love after his knockout victory.
“Drake DMed me last night,” revealed the undefeated fighter. “[It was] one of the best moments of my life. He says, ‘You’re a demon crow, wow. How much you make for a one-minute set tonight?'”
If you’re not up on your latest Toronto slang, “crow” is basically just like saying “bro.” It derives from “crodie,” which is another popular Toronto term.
Drake is always up on who’s hot in the sporting world, so it shouldn’t be surprising that he extended his congratulatory messages to Jake Paul. Who do you think he’ll fight next?
Last month, Joyner Lucas got into a bit of a spat with Lil Nas X following the release of the “Old Town Road” artist’s music video for “MONTERO (Call Me By Your Name)” as well his infamous “Satan” shoes. Prior to that exchange of words, however, Joyner Lucas had been relatively quiet since the release of his full-length effort Evolution last fall, but now, it appears that the “Revenge” artist is ready to step back into the spotlight once more.
After completely wiping his Instagram account, Joyner shared a post that’s sure to get his fans excited. With one picture, the ADHD artist revealed that his first single of 2021 is on the way, and it will feature the beloved QC rapper Lil Baby.
With the announcement that he has a record with Lil Baby being more than enough to get fans hyped for his first single since last fall’s Evolution, Joyner Lucas opted to keep the caption to his huge reveal as simple as possible by merely writing, “4/30/21 @lilbaby.”
Over the past several weeks, fans have been on the lookout for Lil Baby and Lil Durk’s highly anticipated collaboration, but even though Joyner Lucas’ single announcement is unexpected, listeners will probably flock to it nevertheless. Lil Baby is simply one of the hottest commodities in rap at the moment, and if Hip-Hop legends like Rakim are keeping an eye on the Atlanta emcee, then it makes sense that Joyner Lucas made sure that he secured a collaboration with the My Turn rapper.
With roughly a week to go before “Ramen & OJ” drops, fans will have to patiently wait to hear the two artist’s forthcoming single. Are you excited to hear what Joyner Lucas and Lil Baby have been cooking up?

Lil Mosey is in a whole lot of trouble as reports indicate that the rapper is currently a wanted man in the state of Washington. The 19-year-old recording artist has reportedly been charged with rape and cops are looking to arrest him.
According to TMZ, there is a warrant out for the arrest of Lil Mosey, real name Lathan Moses Stanley Echols. The teenager is accused of skipping out on a mandatory court date after being charged with second-degree rape. Because he didn’t show up, he’s officially a wanted man.
The alleged incident took place in January when a woman claimed that she and another woman visited a cabin to see Lil Mosey before she was raped by him and another man. One of the alleged victims claims that she consented to have sex with Mosey in a car but she later blacked out at the cabin from drinking too much. Shortly after she blacked out, she says Mosey had sex with her again. She remembers having leg pain from him forcefully pushing her legs apart. Then, she allegedly blacked out again and woke up with the other man forcing himself on her.
The alleged victim claims she suffered bruising on her arm, neck, and knees.
Lil Mosey faces a maximum sentence of life in prison if he’s convicted. We will keep you updated as the story develops.
Eminem is getting into the N.F.T. business.

The hip-hop community was startled when a video of Bad Boy artist Black Rob surfaced on social media, showing the prolific rapper in the hospital in bad condition. Instantly, people began to wonder aloud why Diddy, the head of Bad Boy, wasn’t stepping up to help his former collaborator. After all, Diddy and Black Rob seemingly had a great friendship earlier in their lives. According to Rob’s manager Kal Dawson, Diddy did end up reaching out but his team “dragged their feet” and it was all too late because, a week later, Rob passed away.
New reports suggest that Diddy has offered to pay for the “Whoa!” rapper’s funeral, which has been confirmed by Dawson, but Rob’s manager also took some time to call out the legendary music mogul. Speaking with the Murder Master Music Show, Kal Dawson said that it was a case of too little, too late with Diddy.
“Through somebody else that was affiliated with Rob, Diddy reached out and was gonna do something for Rob, this is when the video first went up of him in the hospital,” recalled Black Rob’s manager. “People were dragging their feet and nothing got done. So now you gonna pay for his funeral, he dead and gone now! Everybody wanna do something for you when you dead and gone!”
Dawson says that Diddy allegedly offered to help Rob before his death, but he doesn’t know if Rob denied the help or what exactly happened. However, he doesn’t think that Rob should have been in that position either way. “Rob shouldn’t have been in the position that he was in,” he said. “I’m not saying that someone is obligated to do something for him because he’s not but if this was your friend and this guy got you rich and you had good times together, help him out… What’s the problem to help him out a little bit?”
Listen to Kal Dawson’s comments below at the 4:15 mark.
Fivio Foreign has reportedly been arrested in Fort Lee, New Jersey, according to The Daily Voice. Fivio — real name Maxie Lee Ryles III — had reportedly left his car running in a no-parking zone. According to Fort Lee police, when an officer approached him asking for his driver’s license, he simply walked away, ignoring all attempts to flag him down. Unfortunately, when he began running, the arresting officer said a loaded .25-caliber handgun with a defaced serial number fell out of his waistband.
The officer called for backup and Fivio was taken into custody and booked at the Bergen County Jail for weapons possession, having a defaced firearm, and resisting arrest. The initial officer who made contact was reportedly taken to a local hospital for a “minor wound.”
This makes Fivio’s second trip to County in six months. In October, he was arrested for assault after his pregnant girlfriend accused him of punching her in the back of the head and hitting her with a glass bottle. Fivio denied the allegations, claiming she “set him up.”
Fivio has had a quiet 2021 musically, only releasing one single, “Self Made,” and guesting on fellow New Yorker Lil Tjay’s March single “Headshot” with Chicago rapper Polo G.
