WHO GOT NEXT: YOUNG LA
From the wild haircuts to his recent mixtape with Yung Dro, Black Boy Swag, White Boy Tags, Yung L.A. is determined to get your attention. At the same time, L.A. doesn’t make these moves just as a way to scream “look at me”—instead, he’s simply taking advantage of coming from a generation that grew up respecting the artists that were trying to do something a little different instead of just falling in line with the same old. Growing up in Atlanta, the young Leland saw artists like Kriss Kross and Da Brat carving their own lane and made them his influences.
When Yung Dro (usually clad in a pastel tennis sweater and khakis himself) saw Yung L.A. coming out of the hood in Abercrombie, he instantly took a liking to his style and rushed to get him on the Grand Hustle roster. They released the official mixtape in anticipation of Futuristic Leland, the full solo album due out this summer. Even this early in his career, L.A. is already continuing to evolve with that title alone, insisting that his government name will soon become the one in every household.

A FLYBOY In Chi-Town released these images of the Nike Air Hoop Structure. A Hi-Top version of the popular Air Triax 91’s. It’s no secret where these pair of kicks got their inspiration from. None other than the Air Jordan 8’s (Black/Aqua/Purple) shoe colorway. No specific date was posted on when the shoe will release but you can expect to see these drop within the year, and I assure you I will keep you posted on these. Detailed pics after the jump.

FLY SNEAKER OF THE DAY
The colorway of these Motorsports edition was chosen from the Jordan Suzuki Year 5’s white/university blue theme color that they used in 2008. Which made more sense to why Jordan Brand chose those colorways on the Air Jordan 5 model. It is heard that these will be scheduled to launch in Fall of this year. Stay tuned.
