WTR ICON – OAKLEY

Continuing Oakley’s legacy of innovation, today, the brand releases a revolutionary surf helmet made to enhance the sport’s future. WTR Icon is engineered to take on even the heaviest waves and was designed to help alleviate the sensory concerns that surfers face while riding in a helmet.

WTR Icon weighs in under 365g, making it one of the lightest surfing helmets on the market. The helmet integrates Oakley’s innovative technology, fusing design and research with athlete insights. With WTR Icon, surfers can challenge the waves with increased protection and an overall less inhibited experience, allowing them to take their performance to new levels.

The best-in-class WTR Icon surfing helmet boasts a 4-star rating from Virginia Tech’s Helmet Lab, and features EN-1385 white water certification and D3O® impact protection technology. Made from strong Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS), the helmet is designed to absorb impact, disperse energy, and reduce blunt force trauma. Its unique shell design prevents disorientation and drag in the water. With open ventilation, surfers can easily maneuver through and under water even while duck diving, allowing for immediate drainage upon reaching the surface. The helmet includes adjustable and removable ear protection to maintain hearing, prevent cuts, and protect against eardrum blowouts.

WTR Icon made its debut at the 2024 Lexus Pipe Pro at Pipeline on the North Shore of Oahu, where Team Oakley surfer Caity Simmers took the legendary surf spot by storm, delivering one of the best performances ever by a woman at the Banzai Pipeline.

Starting November 2024, WTR ICON will be available for purchase in limited quantities on Oakley.com worldwide with wider availability in early 2025.

Marine Toys for Tots

Marine Toys for Tots announces our Christmas in July campaign to help even more children in need this holiday season. The program is a year-round force good, providing hope and emotional support whenever it’s needed most. Our initiatives beyond the holiday season have been more valuable than ever as families struggle with inflation and continue to experience challenging circumstances.

Toys for Tots doesn’t want to wait until the holiday season to support children in need. Working with local nonprofits across the Nation, Toys for Tots is conducting our fourth annual Christmas in July initiative to bring the same Christmastime magic and hope to underprivileged children in July.

“Needs aren’t seasonal, and neither is Toys for Tots,” says LtGen Laster. “With the rising cost of living and other economic challenges, parents are finding it increasingly difficult to pay bills and put food on their family’s table. Buying toys, books, or games for their children seems completely out of reach. With the support from our generous donors, we can make sure every child’s future is as bright as possible – and deliver the magic of the holiday season in July.”

With every gift that is given, our generous supporters show how much they care about children who face poverty every day of the year. Santa’s boots are big ones to fill, but if anyone’s up to the task, it’s our faithful donors. Celebrate Christmas in July and help Toys for Tots continue to be a year-round force for good and deliver hope for a brighter tomorrow.

DABABY – DONE TRYING

After delivering a titillating rump shaker with “JUDY” last month, eight-time GRAMMY-nominated recording artist DaBaby (South Coast Music Group/Interscope Records) slows down the tempo for his reflective new song “DONE TRYING.” Charged by a heartfelt vocal sample, Baby ruminates on losing his cousin and his tireless work ethic. Though Baby remains steadfast in his goals, he admits he’s only human and has moments when he gets tired. The track’s genuine appeal is felt more in the visual, where Baby’s kids and nephew make cameos as he balances work and family life. “They know I paid them dividends to get they brother dropped / And never sold my soul, I might fuck ’round, be another ‘Pac,” raps Baby on the soul-driven track.

Watch HERE.

“DONE TRYING” resides on Baby’s three-track EP GHETTO SUPERSTAR, featuring his “GHETTO SUPERSTAR “(FREESTYLE)” and “JUDY” with rising Detroit star Skilla Baby. The three-pack is an appetizer to Baby’s upcoming project, slated to drop this summer.

Baby’s enjoying a stellar 2024, where he’s been giving back to his home state of North Carolina. First, he appeared as a surprise guest during 50 Cent’s set at Dreamville Fest last April before performing for 25,000 fans at the inaugural Lovin Life Fest in Charlotte. Ahead of the concert, Baby surprised kids at Garinger High School with a performance and tickets to the festival.

Shaboozey + Billboard

Shaboozey’s critically acclaimed, masterpiece album Where I’ve Been, Isn’t Where I’m Going debuts at #5 the Billboard 200 album chart. The triumphant feat comes following a highly successful album launch on Friday, May 31, and major praise from the New York Times, NPR, Rolling Stone, Billboard, Pitchfork, and many more. Listen to the album HERE.

A star continues to shine as Shaboozey asserts himself as a permanent fixture in mainstream culture. The country/hip hop hitmaker continues to pave his own lane and share his sound with the world with two show-stopping performances of his RIAA-platinum certified anthem and song of the summer “A Bar Song (Tipsy)” on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon and The Kelly Clarkson Show.

He made his CMA Fest debut this past Thursday with audience packed performances at Nissan Stadium (his debut stadium performance) and the Good Molecules Reverb Stage, effectively shutting down the surrounding area, along with an electrifying set at Spotify House on Saturday. He also hosted the Country Fan Fare Stadium Afterparty with PBR and made a notable appearance at the SiriusXM Happy Hour.

“A Bar Song (Tipsy)” enters its fifth week in the top 5 on the Billboard Hot 100 and seventh week on the chart overall. It peaked at #1 on Billboard’s Hot Country Songs Chart, and debuts at #3 on Billboard’s Song of the Summer Chart. He and Beyoncé also made history as the first two Black artists to lead the chart with back-to-back #1 songs on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart. The song has also amassed over 400 million streams and landed in the Top 10 in several countries across the world with #1s in Canada, Sweden, Denmark and the UK’s Big 40.

Where I’ve Been, Isn’t Where I’m Going is the most boldly realized work yet from a singular new voice on the music scene. The Virginia-bred singer/songwriter charts a cinematic road trip through the wilds of the American West, bringing a powerful new depth to his storytelling while pushing further into the country/folk-inspired sound he’s explored in recent years. Streaming juggernaut and critically acclaimed single “Let It Burn,” the haunting heartbreak track “Anabelle,” and “Vegas,” a sing-along ready single straight from the wild west, were the first tracks off the album to give fans a taste of the highly awaited project – one primed for universal acclaim.

DUA LIPA – ILLUSION REMIX

Amazon Music, 3x GRAMMY, 7x BRIT Award-winning global pop powerhouse Dua Lipa, and DJ and producer Regard release a special, brand-new Amazon Music Original remix of “Illusion”, from her latest album Radical Optimism. The Amazon Music Original Illusion (Regard Remix – Amazon Music Original)” is available now, exclusive to Amazon Music listeners, listen here.

Creating an anthemic rendition of Dua Lipa’s “Illusion”, Regard’s remix features a new euphoric piano hook and a driving 4-to-the-floor kick and bassline that complements Dua’s original vocals.

The original version of “Illusion” comes from Dua’s recently released third album, Radical Optimism, which went straight to No. 1 in 11 countries, including the UK where it became the biggest album debut from a UK artist in 2024 and garnered the highest week one sales from a UK female artist since 2021. In the US, the album debuted at No. 1 on Billboard’s Top Album Sales chart and No. 2 on the Billboard 200 chart, marking Dua’s biggest sales week yet. It was named a Critic’s Pick by The New York Times, who hailed it is “an album of nonstop ear candy,” along with Variety, who declared it is “a joyous blast of pop savvy.” Additionally, The New Yorker praised, “the instrumentation is a gleaming and impenetrable expanse, and the main attraction is Lipa,” and Vogue raved it is “a summery, self-assured slice of pop brilliance…[and] catchy as hell.”

Last month, Amazon Music and Dua Lipa shared the meaning behind some of the tracks so fans can enjoy the album along with commentary from Dua herself. In her commentary, Dua delves into the meaning behind ‘Radical Optimism’ covering topics such as the inspiration for the album cover, the songwriting process, her genre description, the importance of performing at Glastonbury, along with a dive into the meaning behind several songs from the album. Listen to Dua Lipa’s Radical Optimism Track-by-Track Experience HERE.

OAKLEY MUZM SUB ZERO N

MAX FEARLIGHT’S 90S SUB ZERO DEFROSTED AND REIMAGINED

A boundary-breaking eyewear reinvented, Oakley® 2024 MUZM Sub Zero N elevates pure physics to an art form. As a relic from the 90s, the Sub Zero silhouette debuted in the original 1992 Max Fearlight commercial with the film becoming a visual manifesto that established the brand’s mood and tone for over 30 years.

Today, in the new brand film featuring Team Oakley athlete Lucas Braathen, Max Fearlight’s original sunglasses are defrosted and reimagined with an evolution into Sub Zero N – bringing together the past and future.

From the impossible task of creating eyewear that would be weightless, came a single continuous contour lens design with an overall weight of less than 20 grams. Carefully curated with the rare “N” lens-cut, a unique paint treatment, and revamped branding, the MUZM Matte Grey Smoke Sub Zero pays homage to Max Fearlight’s creative legacy. Featuring the same white Oakley branding Max wore before exiting the bunker, it is designed to closely cover your face. The Plutonite® lens material now comes with the bold two-tone Prizm™ Snow Torch Iridium® lens technology for an upgraded vision. Additional colorways include Burn Brush with Tungsten lenses and Carbon Fiber with Black lenses. Each with a unique paint treatment and Prizm Matte lenses for an upgraded vision experience. Every style is complete with a microbag and custom Oakley Muzm™ box sleeve.

The MUZM collection celebrates the brand’s disruptive legacy and the bold designs that have shaped Oakley’s past and continue to define its future. Each MUZM piece is carefully selected from the brand’s archive and enhanced with the latest Oakley innovations, connecting generations to the brand’s cultural heritage. This latest iteration joins the brand’s icons of the past, including Eye Jacket, Racing Jacket, Mars X-Metal Leather, and more, which have been reborn with the MUZM series.

The 2024 MUZM Sub Zero N will be available worldwide on May 30, in stores and online at Oakley.com.
