Last month, rapper Future and superstar producer Metro Boomin dropped their collaborative album, We Don’t Trust You. The album has had fans talking for weeks, as it featured a return to the sounds that launched Future into stardom, and the sounds that made Metro a household name. Not to mention, the scathing Kendrick Lamar verse on “Like That” that still has the internet abuzz. But the dynamic duo isn’t slowing down anytime soon. Earlier this year, the two announced that their long-awaited collaborative project will consist of two albums.
Today (April 4), the two teased the second installment of their promising series. In a video clip shared to Twitter, Future and Metro are seen in space. The two have already taken over the world, but they aren’t stopping there. Also in the clip, a collage of photos and videos of Future and Metro appear on screen, signifying a continuation of the long-manifested story.
At the end of the clip, the screen reads “WE STILL DON’T TRUST YOU,” sending a signal to fans that the sequel to We Don’t Trust You is on the way.

Welcome to SNX DLX, your weekly roundup of the best sneakers to hit the internet. This week is a weird one. Here we are at the beginning of spring, a prime time for a wardrobe refresh, and all our favorite sneaker brands decided to just not participate. All but one brand of course, can you guess the brand? We’ll give you a second. Did you guess Nike? Of course, it’s Nike.
While every other brand seems to be taking a break, Nike is here with seven drops that are — despite the lack of brand variety — pretty great. This week we’ve got a mix of classics, like the Air Max 95, Jordan 4, and Shox, newer silhouettes like the Book 1 and NOCTA, and a collaborative pair of sneakers from Converse and Dutch streetwear boutique Patta.
Let’s dive into all the best sneakers releasing this week and where to find them.
Here is something I never thought I’d say about Nike Shox — these sneakers look pretty classy. As someone who was alive during the original Shox run 24 years ago, these sneakers have always represented the bad and garish taste of the early ‘00s fashion aesthetic. But the modern generation has breathed new life into that look, and it’s looking better than it ever has.
Case in point, the Shox R4 Black. This sneaker features an all-black synthetic upper with laser perforations, Max Orange details, and iconic compressed columns that add a spring to your step. The Shox has never looked this good, and we’re here for it.
The Nike Shox R4 Black is out now for a retail price of $150. Pick up a pair via the Nike SNKRS app.
Dutch streetwear brand Patta has linked up with Converse for a new take on two of the brand’s classic silhouettes. First up is the Weapon, which Patta has outfitted with a durable Cordura fabric upper, reflective details, and a single-color upper. Patta’s embroidered branding pops up on the heel with a dual-branded tongue.
Simply put, it’s a utilitarian take on an ‘80s court classic and it looks great!
The Converse x Patta Weapon is set to drop on April 4th at 7:00 AM PST for a retail price of $140. Pick up a pair via the Nike SNKRS app.
The Air Max 95 Atlanta is getting a colorful redesign thanks to an extensive partnership between Nike and four Atlanta retail boutiques. The four include Walter’s, Wish ATL, SolePlay, and A Ma Maniére, and while the sneaker doesn’t live in any of those four’s signature aesthetics, it’s still a really cool concept.
The sneaker features a mix of leather, synthetic leather, and textile with ripples of University Red, Picante, Safety Orange, and Bright Mandarin on the signature rib cage. Our favorite details include the reflective outline and the Phoenix and ATL graphic at the heal.
The Nike Air Max 95 Atlanta is set to drop on April 4th at 7:00 AM PST for a retail price of $185. Pick up a pair via the Nike SNKRS app.
I’m not sure if Converse contractually obligates all collaborators to drop at least one Chuck 70, or if brands are just clamoring to give their spin on the classic silhouette, but I’m not complaining. You can never have too many Chuck 70s!
The Chuck 70 Marquis features the same durable Cordura upper with a muted camo print, reflective details throughout, and embroidered Patta branding at the tongue. Given how thin, lightweight, and barebones the Chuck 70 is, it’s a little funny to see it get the utilitarian treatment, but somehow it works!
The Converse x Patta Chuck 70 Marquis is set to drop on April 4th at 7:00 AM PST for a retail price of $130. Pick up a pair via the Nike SNKRS app.
Drake is having quite a year with his signature NOCTA line. Nike has been pumping out new colorways and silhouettes from this line so clearly, NOCTA is popular. It’s probably Nike’s newest line to be this popular and given the lack of innovation from the Swoosh in recent years, we appreciate all the activity.
The Hot Step 2 features a synthetic leather upper with a reflective finish, textile webbing for the laces, a G-TEK outsole, and a visible air unit at the heel. The new iteration’s colorway is a loud and brash orange with silver accents. It’s a bold statement and a complete 180 from what we’ve come to expect from NOCTA.
The Nike NOCTA Hot Step 2 Total Orange is set to drop on April 4th at 7:00 AM PST for a retail price of $200. Pick up a pair via the Nike SNKRS app or aftermarket sites like GOAT and Flight Club.
Every week we get a Jordan drop, but it’s rare that said drop will be a new never-before-seen colorway. This week is different as Nike drops this women’s exclusive AJ4 in Vivid Sulfur. The sneaker features the usual white leather AJ4 build with a mix of Vivid Sulfur and Anthracite colors.
It’s a simple three-color design that highlights the strength of this legendary silhouette.
The Nike Women’s Air Jordan 4 Vivid Sulfur is set to drop on April 6th at 7:00 AM PST for a retail price of $210. Pick up a pair via the Nike SNKRS app or aftermarket sites like GOAT and Flight Club.
Devin Booker’s signature Book 1 is back with a new colorway dubbed Haven, named for Booker’s Cane Corso of the same name. The sneaker sports a marbled wrap-around Swoosh and a tough canvas and twill upper with leather and suede details. Is this the first time a signature sneaker has been inspired by a dog? Maybe, but hey, it’s working!
This is easily our favorite colorway in the Book 1’s history and has us excited for the future of this new signature silhouette.
The Nike Book 1 Haven is set to drop on April 6th at 7:00 AM PST for a retail price of $140. Pick up a pair via the Nike SNKRS app or aftermarket sites like GOAT and Flight Club.

It’s been over a year since the Toronto native formally introduced herself to the music world with her emotive and transcending debut Elizabeth. The project, two years in the making at the time of its release, is a sprawling spectacle of affirmations and self-confidence boosters that were equally beneficial for Lokre to sing as it is for her listeners to hear. As beautiful of a listen as Elizabeth is, there is only so much healing and self-affirming one can do before one enjoys the fruits of their labor. So, for her latest era, Lokre will do just that — beginning with her sizzling new single “Body.”
The song was announced last month with a message from Lokre. “I don’t wish to sing about healing,” she wrote on Instagram. “It’s all I talk about. I don’t need to bring you something heavy, you carry enough. Something to feel to love to move to. I can give u one 2 slow whine ur waist 2 :).” “Body” is just that as it sizzles with flavor and seduction, a perfect recipe to draw in Lokre’s target who stands at a distance admiring the view she provides. Its accompanying video steams with anticipation as Lokre dances and flaunts her body for watching eyes.
Lokre’s liberating new era is underway and as we wait for what comes next in it, Uproxx caught up with her to learn more about her background — her influences, interests, and her goals for the future.
Seeing my mom sing in church every Sunday. I remember being a kid and thinking, “One day I’m gonna be old enough to lift my hands and sing too.”
Who inspired you to take music seriously?
My mom. She had me in classical training and introduced me to the importance of practice and performance when I was young, the same way her mother did for her.
Do you know how to play an instrument? If so, which one? If not, which instrument do you want to learn how to play?
I play piano, guitar, and enough drums to tell a drummer what I like. I’d love to learn the harp.
What was your first job?
I did voice-overs for Crayola and modeled for local department stores as a kid, I guess I’ve never really had a plan B since then.
What is your most prized possession?
Probably my car. It’s not the dream Jeep, but it was the first purchase I made when I signed my first contract & I’m proud of her.
You get 24 hours to yourself to do anything you want, with unlimited resources: What are you doing? And spare no details!
Ok, I’m in a space somewhere in Chile with trees around me and a view of the ocean. There’s a white grand piano and vinyls I’ve never heard that I’ll sample and I’m drinking cacao that I packed in my suitcase from Guatemala. Then I’m gonna read some poetry by Pablo Neruda that probably inspires me to write. After touching the ocean it’s local red wine and pasta. Always pasta. Oh and I’m completely alone. Don’t call me.
What are your three most used emojis?
, and .
What’s a feature you need to secure before you die?
Her Majesty, Sade.
If you could appear in a future season of a current TV show, which one would it be and why?
Catfish. Is that current? I don’t know, but I have an absolutely insane story to share.
Which celebrity do you admire or respect for their personality and why?
I just like when people are human and don’t forget how to be compassionate. Alicia Keys does it well.
Share your opinion on something no one could ever change your mind about.
There are no coincidences.
What is the best song you’ve ever heard in your life and what do you love about it?
“A Song For You” by Donny Hathaway. I’ve never heard more honesty and feeling on a recording before. It’s like he’s right there in the room with you.
What’s your favorite city in the world to perform, and what’s a city you’re excited to perform in for the first time?
I love performing in Toronto… earning hometown love and seeing that grow feels really special. Playing in South America or Trinidad would be an incredible feeling, cultures where the rhythm is just in their bones.
You are throwing a music festival. Give us the dream lineup of 5 artists that will perform with you and the location where it would be held.
Hear me out: It’s in a canyon in Arizona for the reverb and the vibes. The artists in this order: Jhené Aiko on her sound healing, Cleo Sol, Alewya, M.I.A., followed by Her Majesty Sade.
What would you be doing now if it weren’t for music?
I’d probably be a writer or journalist. Maybe next lifetime, we collab.
If you could see five years into the future or go five years into the past, which one would you pick and why?
The past, because uncertainty about the future is how we build faith. If I could show LOKRE 5 years ago how to love herself the way I do now, we might’ve avoided some bruises. But I wouldn’t change a thing.
What’s one piece of advice you’d go back in time to give to your 18-year-old self?
Along those lines, love and trust yourself deeply, because you will always be the common denominator in your story. Build it on love and you will only be willing to accept what you are worthy of.
It’s 2050. The world hasn’t ended, and people are still listening to your music. How would you like it to be remembered?
I want them to say they felt seen, held, and inspired by my art. I want to be remembered as an artist who amplified the light in others just by moving effortlessly in my own. That would be fire.
Lokre’s “Body” video is out now. You can watch it above.
The NC State Wolfpack are on one heck of a run right now, as the team won the ACC Tournament to earn a berth in the NCAA Tournament and has kept on winning. Despite being an 11 seed, the Wolfpack have made it out of their region and will play Purdue in the Final Four on Saturday evening.
It’s been a joy to watch, in large part because they might have the most fun player to watch in America. NC State’s starting center is D.J. Burns, a 6’9, 275 pound big man with unreal footwork, some incredible instincts as a passer, and a big smile that seems to always be on his face. He came up huge in the team’s Elite 8 win over Duke, as the big fella went for 29 points, four rebounds, three assists, and two blocks.
Burns’ college hoops career ends when this season does, and apparently, there are NFL teams with some level of interest in seeing if he could suit up along the offensive line. The problem: Burns isn’t particularly interested in that, telling reporters he has “zero” interest in trying his hand at football.
“Until I got my first scholarship offer (for basketball), and then I quit immediately,” Burns said when asked if he ever played football. NC State’s coach, Kevin Keatts, is also pretty confident that football isn’t in his future.
Kevin Keatts laughs off DJ Burns getting NFL attention:
“Yeah, no way he’s playing football.”
Said he’s fielded no calls about DJ playing pro football, he thinks his future is on the court. pic.twitter.com/KQqcPP601G
Word of Burns drawing NFL interest came earlier this week from Peter Schrager of Fox Sports, who cited his size and footwork as things that make him an appealing prospect in a sport he doesn’t play.
The Boss is coming to LA. Bruce Springsteen and his trusty E Street Band have officially kicked off their 2024 tour, which rolls into the Kia Forum in Inglewood tonight for two dates. As one of three major venues in that neighborhood, parking can be… let’s say, “dubious” at times, so if you’re looking to avoid some rigamarole, read on. You can also check out the setlist here.
Where To Park For Bruce Springsteen’s 2024 Tour At The Kia Forum
Obviously, you can park in the Forum’s own parking lot. It’s $25, and there are entrances on Prairie Ave. and Kareem Ct. on the east and west sides of the Forum, respectively. If you’re going with this option, allow plenty of time for getting in and out, as traffic can be pretty hectic.
Your other options are, of course, ride-sharing and LA’s oft-maligned but vastly underrated public transit. The LA Metro 211/215 line has two stops on Prairie at Manchester and Kelso, with only a 10-minute walk to the arena from either. The ride-share pick-up and drop-off lot is at Pincay and Prairie, but if you don’t mind a little stroll, have it drop you off at the Sizzler on Manchester.
You can find more information on the Forum’s website or on Metro.net.
If you got your 2024 Dreamville Festival tickets, congratulations! Now, you have a new journey ahead of you: Figuring out how you’re going to get to the fest. If driving is looking like your best option, here’s what to know about parking.
Here’s Where To Park At Dreamville Festival 2024
There’s an official guide to Dreamville parking on the festival’s website, as well as as some informative graphics you can check out below.
Parking can be purchased at NC State University’s Centennial Campus, right across the street from Dorothea Dix Park, or here. This guarantees a parking spot in one of the designated Dreamville Festival parking lots, which are on NC State University’s Centennial Campus. The lots will open at will open at 10 a.m. on Saturday, April 6 and Sunday, April 7.
Aside from parking, there’s also an official festival shuttle that will run between Moore Square and the West Entrance of the festival venue at Centennial Park. The shuttle can be used for those who purchase a shuttle pass, and the shuttles will run continuous service from 10 a.m. until 1 a.m. Shuttle passes can be bought here.
Another option is utilizing the pick-up and drop-off spots, whether that’s via a friend driving you or using a rideshare service like Uber and Lyft (or a taxi). Drop-off zones are located near Dorothea Dix Park.

The latest casting news out of the Marvel Cinematic Universe today turned out to be a big surprise not just because of who was cast but also because of who they’re playing.
Julia Garner, best known for roles in Ozark and the Netflix scammer biopic Inventing Anna will reportedly be joining the cast of The Fantastic Four. She’ll be playing the role of Shalla-Bal, a longstanding character with a new role in the MCU — that of the Silver Surfer, a longtime antagonist/supporting character of the titular Marvel First Family.
The news has both casual MCU heads and hardcore comics readers flustered; isn’t the Silver Surfer supposed to be Norrin Radd, the first herald of the world-eating Galactus? And has there ever been a female Silver Surfer? Read on, True Believer…
Has There Ever Been A Woman Silver Surfer?
The answer is, like most things when it comes to 80-plus years of comic book history, complicated.
in the main Marvel Comics continuity, the Silver Surfer has always been Norrin Radd of the planet Zenn-La, who took on the role of herald in exchange for Galactus sparing his homeworld from its apocalyptic fate. Shalla-Bal was his romantic partner and has sporadically appeared in his comics stories as either a romantic interest or an antagonist over the years.
However, in the 1999 limited series Earth-X, the usual Marvel canon was turned inside-out to depict a potential dystopian future for the Marvel Universe (now, there are like a hundred of those, but in 1999, this was still a relatively novel concept). One of the biggest changes was splitting the Silver Surfer persona between Radd and Bal, who are now twin heralds of a reborn Galactus after the original was killed in his first encounter with the Fantastic Four — the opposite outcome of one of the foundational stories of the Marvel Universe.
As with plenty of characters from the comics, the MCU is finding a new twist on the publisher’s 60-year history to tell different stories with its long-established characters. If it feels like a lot to keep track of, just remember: The important thing is not to be an ass about it just because the adaptation tried something new.
Denis Villeneuve has reportedly lined up his first post-Dune project. The visionary director and Legendary Entertainment have locked down the rights to the best-selling book Nuclear War: A Scenario. Much like Christoper Nolan’s Oppenheimer, the film would tackle the devastating reality of nuclear weapons as it adapts the non-fiction tome from Pulitzer Prize finalist Annie Jacobsen.
However, in an interesting note, Deadline reports that Villeneuve would helm Nuclear War after delivering Dune: Messiah, the final installment in a proposed Dune trilogy. After completing Dune: Part Two, which was delayed for several months due to the writers’ and actors’ strike, Villeneuve has stated in interviews that he’s hesitant to return to the desert too quickly.
He recently told Collider that he might “make a little detour, maybe” before returning to Dune. Based on Deadline‘s reporting, it appears that Villeneuve and Legendary have opted to wrap up the trilogy first.
Here’s a brief synopsis of Nuclear War, which just hit the New York Times bestseller list:
The book explores a ticking-clock scenario about what would happen in the event of a nuclear war, based on dozens of exclusive new interviews with military and civilian experts who built the weapons and have been privy to the response plans and have been responsible for those decisions should they need to be made.
As for Villenueve’s adaptation, Deadline reports “the expectation also is that this would be a chilling cautionary tale about where the world might be headed in an age of political volatility at a time when too many countries have nuclear capabilities.”
