Tory Lanez has made it very clear from the jump that his upcoming Chixtape 5 is very much inspired by the early 2000s era of music. When he first announced that the album would be arriving this month, he shared a playlist of songs that all inspired the project that was accompanied by a T-Pain track and the OG iPod commercial from the same year.

Tory has now come through with a new way to promote his anticipated tape (still not giving us an exact date) by recreating Nike's basketball dribbling commercial from the year 2001. The clip sees a durag fitted Tory and his entourage mimic the original commercial in a creative way tying into the theme of his album that we can't for. "😂😂😂 Bro I’m SCREAMING this shit too funny," T-Pain commented. 

"2000 -2006 ... I want to personally thank these 6 years for being the MAIN INSPIRATION to the SAMPLES and NOSTALGIA used on #Chixtape5," Tory recently said of the album. "I have never went this hard on the PRODUCTION of any of my albums .. really hope y’all enjoy what I have had the honor of enjoying for the last 8 months."

    • Wait, Burning Man is going online-only? What does that even look like?
      You could have been forgiven for missing the announcement that actual physical Burning Man has been canceled for this year, if not next. Firstly, the nonprofit Burning Man organization, known affectionately to insiders as the Borg, posted it after 5 p.m. PT Friday. That, even in the COVID-19 era, is the traditional time to push out news when you don't want much media attention. 
      But secondly, you may have missed its cancellation because the Borg is being careful not to use the C-word. The announcement was neutrally titled "The Burning Man Multiverse in 2020." Even as it offers refunds to early ticket buyers, considers layoffs and other belt-tightening measures, and can't even commit to a physical event in 2021, the Borg is making lemonade by focusing on an online-only version of Black Rock City this coming August.    Read more...
