Today, following their initial partnership in 2020, Reebok and street culture publication SNEEZE Magazine have announced two collaborative iterations of the ‘80s-inspired LT Court sneaker taking cues from vintage ‘90s skate shoes. The SNEEZE x Reebok LT Court ($120, GW9607/GW9514) are available beginning July 8 exclusively from SNEEZE followed by a wider global release beginning July 15 from Reebok.com and select retailers.
Within its picture-heavy pages, SNEEZE Magazine offers an authentic guide to modern street and skate culture. Its continued pursuit of inclusive storytelling and ‘good vibes’ makes SNEEZE an ideal partner for Reebok.
“Collaborating on a shoe isn’t easy,” commented SNEEZE. “It’s a lot of work putting something out there that we would be stoked to wear ourselves. We’ve had a nice run with Reebok and the shoes always turn out better than expected.”
Made with the same attention to detail as an ‘80s Reebok Court model and offered in black/white (GW9607) and green/chalk (GW9514) colorways, the SNEEZE x Reebok LT Court feels as if it were taken straight from vintage Reebok catalogs. The design utilizes an all-over suede upper with contrast stitching, while carrying forward OG Reebok design characteristics – a deconstructed toe box, proper foam packaging, vintage logos – and cup sole tooling inspired by iconic Reebok multi-part molds.
“The angles of it are dynamic,” concluded SNEEZE. “Its stance has an attack to it, but it’s also very chill and looks really good on a skater.”
The collaboration is brought to life visually by photographer Joel Meinholz (@iamyourvillain) with creative (HERE) featuring Miami skateboarder Rezza Honarvar (@rexdollas).
SNEEZE and Reebok first came together in spring of 2020 for a subtle rendition of Reebok’s iconic Club C from which all sales benefitted #BlackLivesMatter.
The SNEEZE x Reebok LT Court ($120, GW9607/GW9514) are available beginning July 8 exclusively from SNEEZE followed by a wider global release beginning July 15 from Reebok.com and select retailers.

It’s almost THAT time, DJ Khaled has personally revealed the title of his anxiously awaited thirteenth full-length in studio album, GOD DID, coming soon via We The Best Music Group/Epic Records. He immediately set social media on fire with the announcement of the album’s name. The phrase, GOD DID, has become synonymous with Khaled as of late. Fellow superstars such as Lebron James, Kevin Hart, FANLUV and so many more have adopted it as their mantra. It’s a phrase that is about to forever shape the culture and define 2022.
Recently, Khaled has teased the release of new music with a series of posts on social media joined by the likes of Drake, Future, Lil Baby, and more in the studio. He’s stirring up anticipation to a fever pitch and will deliver anthems yet again.
He’s kept very busy throughout 2022. He made headlines with an appearance on stage at the Academy Awards where he opened up the show, and he notably received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Plus, he served as a presenter, twice, at the Billboard Music Awards.
Last year, Khaled unleashed his twelfth full-length album, KHALEDKHALED [We The Best Music Group/Epic Records]. It arrived as his third #1 debut on the Billboard Top 200, sixth #1 on the Top Rap Albums Chart, and fourth #1 on the R&B/Hip-Hop Albums Chart. It also reached platinum status.
Get ready for more from Khaled. Two words say it all, GOD DID.
ABOUT DJ KHALED:
For over two decades, the very mention of DJKhaledhas implied an elevated level of musical greatness, entrepreneurial excellence, and cultural impact. You’ve heard him across a GRAMMY Award-winning multiplatinum catalog, seen him in blockbusters such as Bad Boys For Life, caught him on the cover of Rolling Stone, watched him on numerous television programs, and felt his presence from the streets all the way up to the Barack Obama White House. He has achieved dozens of multiplatinum and gold certifications, including the 9x multi-platinum Billboard Hot 100 #1 I’m The One [feat. Justin Bieber, Quavo, Chance the Rapper & Lil Wayne], 6x multi-platinum Wild Thoughts [feat. Rihanna&BrysonTiller], and double-platinum No Brainer [feat. Justin Bieber,Chance the Rapper & Quavo]. The latter propelled his 2019 album, Father ofAsahd [We The Best Music Group/Epic Records], to the top of the charts. Not only did it garner a platinum certification, but it also became his third consecutive Top 2 debut on the Billboard Top 200 and emerged as the #1 Most-Streamed Record upon release. To date, he has moved over 20 million singles and 6 million albums in addition to gathering 4 billion-plus streams.
Not to mention, he launched We The Best Music Groupa record label, management, publishing, and production company and in-demand studio. As a committed philanthropist, he founded his 501(c)3 organization The We The Best Foundation. It uplifts individuals throughout underserved communities across the United States and supports various non-profits. He has supported the fight against COVID-19. U2frontmanBonorecruited him as the first social media ambassador for Project Red, and he serves as the national spokesperson for Get Schooled. Now, the power of this legacy defines his twelfth full-length album which bears his birth name KhaledKhaled [We The Best Music Group/Epic Records], preceded by two chart-busting bangers alongside frequent collaboratorDrake, namely POPSTAR and GREECE.

The gathering marked the 2022 Rolls-Royce Owners Club Meet in San Diego
Rolls-Royce Ghost and Black Badge Ghost showcase the tremendous technological development of the world’s premier luxury brand over the past century
“Rolls-Royce Ghost remains one of the most popular members of our family. No name has been more successful for Rolls-Royce Motor Cars over the past century and especially over the past 20 years marking the Goodwood era. It’s fascinating to share how Rolls-Royce has evolved over the past century while at the same time, remaining true to its promise as the premier luxury brand in the world.” — Martin Fritches, President Rolls-Royce Motor Cars Americas
#RollsRoyceGhost
Rolls-Royce Ghost has been the most successful name for the world’s leading luxury brand for the past century. Ghost has set luxury and motoring standards since Sir Henry Royce and Charles Rolls revealed Silver Ghost to the world in 1908. This week, as part of the 2022 Annual Meet of Rolls-Royce Owners Club, the brand spans more than 100 years of Ghost with an exclusive meeting of two special Silver Ghost and two spectacular 2022 Rolls-Royce Ghost commissions. The family gathering comes 114 years since the debut of Silver Ghost in 1907.
Thevintage Silver Ghosts were introduced to the pair of 2022 Rolls-Royce commissions as Rolls-Royce motor car owners and lovers convened in San Diego for the 2022 Rolls-Royce Owners Club annual gathering. This annual meet features some of the finest examples Rolls-Royce historic commissions from throughout North America. With more than 70 percent of all motor cars created still gracing the world’s roads today,Rolls-Royce Motor Cars commitment to excellence of quality and luxury is borne out in each unique Bespoke creation.
The vintage beauties were greeted by a 2022 Rolls-Royce Ghost, the execution of the brand’s concept of ‘post-opulence’ first seen in 2021. Today’s Ghost is a more restrained and refined. Constructed on the brand’s dedicated ‘Architecture of Luxury,’ Ghost has refined the Rolls-Royce driving experience to perfection. The interior free of unnecessary adornments with wide simple leatherwork and the longest straightest stitch lines ever seen in a motor car. Every piece has also been engineered to make Ghost the quietest ever and the most intriguing design features resulting from the use of light. Designers extended the effect of the brands Starlight Headliner inside and out with a fascia is illuminated with 850 shimmering stars surrounding the mark “Ghost.” On the exterior, a subtle ‘light touch’ includes a new feature with an illuminate iconic Rolls-Royce grill.
Black Badge Ghost joined the reunion as the darker, edgier alter ego for the family. The distinct model features both design and engineering enhancements that make it the choice for a more aggressive Rolls-Royce collector. With darkened chrome including the iconic Spirit of Ecstasy, Black Badge highlights the passion for nightlife. Black Badge Ghost doesn’t just bring a darker beauty, engineering enhancements give it more brawn. Goodwood engineers have tuned the 6.75-liter twin-turbo V-12 to deliver more torque and horsepower than the ‘post-opulent’ Ghost and the acclaimed ‘Architecture of Luxury’ has been engineered to be more aggressive.
The event comes just following the announcement by Rolls-Royce of the second iteration of “Boat Tail’ the premier program for the Rolls-Royce Coachbuild division and the reveal of the new interpretation of Phantom VIII, the ability of Rolls-Royce Motors to continue delivering commissions are becoming instant classics is undisputed.

Actor-Comedian, Marlon Wayans, shares the ultimate expression of love and voices support for his daughter’s “coming out” experience.
As Pride Month ends, members and allies of the LGBTQ+ community have been shining a light on the stories of hardship, acceptance, and advocacy which have shaped the community into what it is today. Actor and comedian Marlon Wayans weaved his experience into the tapestry of stories in an interview with Dr. James Flowersfor the podcast series “Understanding the Human Condition.”
“Acceptance is the greatest love you can have,”Wayans declared. “Nobody should be closeted about their life. Everyone should be able to live their life to the fullest.”
When Dr. Flowers inquired about Wayans’ daughter’s “coming out” experience, Wayans revealed his family’s wide range of reactions. Wayans accepted her with open arms when his daughter came out to him. However, her confession was met with some ambivalence from non-immediate family members. In response to these hesitations, Wayans doubled down on the support for his child.
“It’s your life. As long as you’re smiling, as long as you’re happy, daddy loves you. Love is acceptance,” Wayans said in response to his daughter’s coming out.
Wayans is in full support of loving parenting styles that promote the well-being of children and LGBTQ+ youth to live their life as they wish.
Dr. Flowers applauds Wayans’ response to his daughter and provides some advice for parents struggling with acceptance.
“When your child comes out, it is crucial that you continue to support them. While you may have many questions, be sensible that coming out is very difficult and potentially stressful. There is nothing a parent can do to make their child gay or straight, but you can help them thrive and live their best life.”

I recently answered a cry by numerous young women on Tiktok calling for abstention from sex with men until a reversal of the Supreme Court’s recent decision on Roe Vs. Wade cometh. Here is my response.
The logic behind pitting women against all men over this decision is both unintelligent and destructive. The Supreme Court’sreversal doesn’t make men the bad guys so why are we punishing them? Doing so won’t change that decision in the least.
What it will do is create yet another tragic, unnecessary divide which will only make matters worse for the entire nation, including women. In strong-arming the court and men, the only thing women will be demonstrating is that the court was correct in its decision because “children shouldn’t be deciding the fate of other children.”
I’m truly sick and tired of how our society continues to lump all men together and cast them in an extremely poor light when it’s convenient to do so. That is truly unfair, especially when today’s men had nothing to do with what yesterday’s men did, said, or how they conducted themselves. The sins of the father shouldn’t be bleeding onto their sons as men have evolved in ways we should all be proud of. But in that, women need to recognize this as opposed to overlooking it. Because, frankly, if we don’t, we will eliminate all reason and commitment to further growth from them. To that same point, the tangent so many women are on to change men into beings who they were never meant to be is wrong, egotistical, and a poor reflection on those women and, ultimately, the rest of us women, too. I resent it.
Neither gender has the right to define what the other gender “should be.” The sliding scale of ‘masculinity to femininity’ shouldn’t be actively coerced but a reflection of personal choice. And as advocates of “pro-choice,” you, above any other woman, should understand the importance of this.
Be angry if you so choose, but don’t be the justification for the decision you don’t agree with. And stop imploding on men. Because you are shooting yourself in the foot while making yourself look backward in the face of men moving forward.
