On Foot Locker’s Twitter account, the company announced the release date of the sneakers dubbed “Red Octobers”:

The news comes a day after Kanye West informed Chicago’s Stylz & Roman radio show that his clothing partnership with Adidas will be released in September of 2014. During his announcement, West took one more jab at his former partner, Nike:

I’ve been under the wings, playing it the right way at Nike and everything but I’ve wanted to create more and not been able to create more for no reason.  I have a new product partner with adidas. I just got back from Germany yesterday and it was one of the greatest creative days of my life.

The Red October Air Yeeys II will be available on Footlocker’s website at 8 A.M. on December 27th.

Katy Perry: Me and John Mayer's Video Was A Response To Kanye's "Bound 2" (VIDEO)

(AllHipHop News) Kanye West just got some friendly competition from the most unlikely source. During a recent interview with her boyfriend John Mayer on The Ellen Degeneres Show, Katy Perry claimed the pair’s new “Who You Love” video was “more authentic” than Kanye West’s “Bound 2”.

Pointing out Kim Kardashian’s hair blowing in the wrong direction, Perry lamented hers and Mayer’s “Who You Love” video as a response to Kanye’s “Bound 2”:

Yes. I thought our response was a little bit more authentic because my hair was blowing in the right direction, though.

During his The Breakfast Club interview, West spoke on intentionally making certain elements of his “Bound 2” video fake:

I wanted it to look as phony as possible. I wanted the clouds to go in one direction, the mountains to go in another, the horses to go over there, I wanted to show that this is the Hunger Games, this is the type of imagery that’s being presented to all of us, the only difference is there’s a black dude in the middle of it.

Perry and West collaborated in the past and even won the 2011 MTV Video Music Award for Best Collaboration for the video for their song “E.T.”

Here is the original video with Mayer and Perry:

And here is their inspiration, Kanye’s “Bound 2,” which features Kim Kardashian.

Epic Fail of the Day: Man Gets Robbed Shortly After Robbing a Bank

A Texas man was robbed shortly after robbing a bank himself.

Via Huffington Post:

Larry Poulos, of Arlington, allegedly handed a teller at the Educational Employees Credit Union a deposit slip with the word “bomb” scrawled on the back Tuesday, according to Dallas News.

The teller initially thought he was just kidding, but soon realized he was legitimately trying to rob the place. She gave him more than $5,000 in cash before he fled the store, according to the Dallas Observer, but not before he — and his “I <3 Texas” shirt — were caught on surveillance camera.

Oh yeah, some neighbors also called 911 because while Poulos was running back to his apartment, dollar bills were spilling out of the bag and trailing behind him.

Neighbors also reported that minutes after Poulous went into his apartment, two large men walked in, then came back out carrying a bag of cash.

When cops showed up at Poulos’ apartment, they noted that he was not only wearing the same “I <3 Texas” shirt seen in the surveillance video, but he was also bleeding from his head. Both Poulos and his roommate told cops that Poulos had just been robbed.

Poulos faces federal robbery charges but the people who robbed him are still at large.

Talk about karma. Now if only they catch the robber’s robbers.

Hip-Hop Rumors: Amina Buddafly Pregnant by Peter Gunz?

This is one people who still follow Love & Hip-Hop all saw coming.  The Breakfast Club’s Angela Yee claims that Peter Gunz’s wife, Amina Buddafly, is pregnant. The details are supposed to emerge when the Love & Hip-Hop New York reunion show airs. It was taped earlier this week.

As far as the status of Peter Gunz and Amina’s “marriage,” that status remains to be seen but it’s probably only a matter of time (if it hasn’t happened already) before he’s on to the next one.

You know Tara is p##### about this, if this is true. It was the inevitable though.

Gunz should consider getting snipped.

Props to Bossip for that tip.

The Beat For Rick Ross & Jay Z's "Devil Is A Lie" May Have Been Stolen

(AllHipHop News) In an ironic turn of events, the initially credited producer of Rick Ross and Jay Z’s collaboration
“Devil Is A Lie” has been accused of stealing the beat from another producer.

KE On The Track was originally credited as the producer of the track when the song debuted online yesterday (December 20th). Minutes after the song was released to the world on Rick Ross’ Soundcloud account, KE On The Track released a video of him making the “Devil Is A Lie” beat.

Soon after, Atlanta producer Omar “Major Seven” Walker went on a Twitter tirade against KE, accusing him of stealing the beat from him and

Hours afterwards, KE dismissed the allegations on his personal twitter account:

Walker later deleted a tweet that suggested that the matter was resolved and earlier today (December 20th) intimated that the problem may take time to resolve:

Rick Ross and Jay Z’s collaboration, “Devil Is A Lie” will appear on Ross’ upcoming album Mastermind and is available on iTunes, however no producer is credited.

Kanye West Says Farrakhan Told Him Not To Apologize

(AllHipHop News) Kanye West seemingly threw some shade towards Jay Z, Oprah Winfrey and Michael Jordan, as he discussed a conversation with Minister Louis Farrakhan.

In new concert footage, Kanye says that he spoke with Farrakhan and was told that he should not apologize about comments he made about Jewish people.

“When I talked to Farrakhan the other night, he told me not to apologize. I ain’t finna apologize,” he said from a concert. “What I wanna tell y’all is that, uh, I’m not like Jay Z. That’s my big brother. I look up to him. And I’m not like Oprah. That’s my big sister. And I’m not like Michael Jordan.”

Exactly what Kanye was trying to say is unknown, even though contextually, it doesn’t sound flattering.

The comments come on the heels of Kanye West stating that “Black people don’t have the same level of connections as Jewish people.” in an interview. The Anti-Defamation League (ADL) chided the comments and called them “classic anti-Semitism.”

The concert footage is below.

Epic Win of the Day: Chuck Norris Ethers Claud Van Damme With Milehigh Split

DAMME!

Chuck Norris does NOT play! He’s like 85 and out here still kicking people in the a$$! Well, now his target is Claud Van Damme. And he’s does it in impressive fashion. You know that Claud did this ill (and real) stunt ad for Volvo. It was dope, but through the use of CGI, Chuck Norris makes himself even more of a legend than he already is.
