NBA legend and former Miami Heat superstar Dwyane Wade has recently collaborated with Rick Ross on a special release of two of his Way of Wade silhouettes. D-Wade’s loyalty to Miami is well-known and Rick Ross’ affinity for the same city can be seen throughout his music material and heard in his songs. Both individuals reside in Miami and teamed up for Li-Ning’s first-ever collaboration with a musical artist.

The Way of Wade 7, or “WoW 7”, is outfitted in a black/purple/gold/red color combination. This is the same model that D-Wade wore during his last season in the NBA. This WoW 7 also comes equipped with a removable crown that velcros onto the heel counter. When the crown is removed, “self made” can be seen written across the heel in red. The pull tabs say “Rick Ro$$” and Dwyane Wade’s Li-Ning ‘Way of Wade’ logo can be seen predominantly across the foot in red.

 

     

 

      

 

The second pair released from Li-Ning and the duo of “The Boss” and D-Wade is the Way of Wade Essence Ace II. This sneaker is definitely a lifestyle choice in contrasting with the more performance-based WoW 7. Dressed in an all red upper, this Essence Ace II combines breathable mesh as well as high quality tumbled leather. Li-Ning is well-known for using very high quality materials on their footwear, especially for the Way of Wade line. “Rick Ro$$” is written in black on the side of the midsoles in addition to some Chinese inscriptions as well. Gold lace tips and a red lace lock round out this pair’s details.

 

Both pairs released October 19th on Li-Ning’s Way of Wade website as well as The Edition Sneaker Boutique in Miami, FL. The Essence Ace II retails for $200 and the WoW 7 fetches a price of $300.

“When you work with such an institution like Levi’s, you don’t want them to be anything but Levi’s,” Timberlake told The Hollywood Reporter “And so it’s just a little bit of a swerve here and there on fit or cut or wash or texture and that’s it. And then saying, wouldn’t it be fun to make a workman’s vest, for instance, or wouldn’t it be fun to throw a hoodie on a trucker jacket? For the first two seasons, we created a bit of a left-of-center aesthetic and we just want to continue to play up on that. … I like to mix things up always,” said Timberlake recently interview with 

The 12-piece Levi’s x Justin Timberlake fall-winter 2019 Fresh Leaves collection (the musician’s third collaborative capsule line) featuring new takes on his signature hooded shirts, trucker jackets, cargo pants and reversible down vest ($78-$380) with plaids and an orange camouflage pattern in the mix.

Amongst music and fashion, Timberlake is gearing up for his role in the film ‘Palmer.’ A story about a former college football phenomenon who, after a stint in prison, returns to his hometown to get his life back on track.

Big Sean’s Latest Project is All About Self Reflection

Big Sean’s Latest Project is All About Self Reflection

Celebs

Sometimes the pressures of life can be unbearable, those who don’t have money believe the only way to be happy is to have it. In the words of Rap Legend Biggie Smalls “Mo’Money, Mo’ problems,” recently it has occurred to me that rappers are more focused on creating a space to improve their mental health the longer there in the game and Big Sean is no different.

Sean, who recently released more details about his upcoming fifth studio album, which includes appearances from Post Malone, A$AP Rocky, Meek Mills, and Diddy to name a few. Spoke with Entertainment Weekly about his life during the two-year hiatus, his new project, and a story of how his mother believes in holistic medicine may have saved his life. 

“I took some time to work on myself and I was able to have a good therapist, good mentors,”said Big Sean “I truly feel like it’ll really shine through on the full album.”

Came back full force dropping new song “Single Again” as well as a visual. Big Sean has decided to peel back the curtain and allow fans a more personal experience through his music. Feeling it is necessary to express these certain things in his life he had revealed through his music before. On track entitled ‘Wolves,’ featuring an appearance from Post Malone and A$AP Rocky is a tribute to Sean’s family.

“[That song is about] my family growing up,” Sean tells Entertainment Weekly. “Everybody’s in there, my grandma, my mom, my brother — it’s like they were a pack of wolves and they were the sweetest and strongest. It’s one of my favorites on the album.”

In track “Lucky Me,” He addresses the scary moment in his life being diagnosed with heart disease at the age of 19. 

“I couldn’t even walk from one side of the room to the other without getting super-tired,” he tells EW. “I passed out once in the shower and got rushed to the emergency room.”

At this time he was just beginning to release music after signing to Kanye West’s GOOD Music, but Sean’s health issues left him facing a potentially costly and risky surgical procedure. He credited his mother’s holistic view of medicine as a cure. He raps, “Lucky me, I was diagnosed with a heart disease at 19/ Doctors said they had to cut it open put a pacemaker on it to put it back on beat/ ’Til my mother took me to holistic doctors and they prescribed me magnesium for two weeks/ Went back to the regular doctors and they said, ‘Huh? damn, looks like we don’t need to proceed.”

When it comes to artists with longevity in their careers it is amazing to see them evolve, as they experience different events in life their music should reflect that and personal reflection plays a major role in this project and Big Sean hopes it brings fans some measure of self-fulfillment.

So are you excited to hear the evolution of Big Sean on his latest project let us know in the comments section below:
