MC BREED PASSES AWAY

While details are still being confirmed, sources told AllHipHop.com that the rapper died early this morning.

“He’s no longer with us,” said a tearful friend, who shall remain anonymous. “We are in the process of putting together a benefit concert, hopefully at Saint Andrews to raise money for a funeral,” the source told AllHipHop.com.

MC Breed, born Eric Breed, was a 15-year-veteran who was born in Flint Michigan.

He worked with a number of rappers, including Too $hort and Tupac Shakur.

On September 5, Breed was admitted to an Atlanta area hospital and placed on life support, after he collapsed when his kidneys failed, during a game of pickup basketball.

His condition began to improve and he was taken off of life support a few days later.

AIR JORDAN RETRO 1 HIGH

Tomorrow will see a few key releases from the Jordan Brand and has made it hard to choose between them. The Air Jordan I (1) Retro High Strap will finally be hitting store shelves after weeks of anticipation. The strapped version is available in three colorways, the classic “Bred” black/varsity red/white, white/black/varsity red and black/white. Perhaps the more sought after Air Jordan I (1) Retro High Strap, the first style pictured will be limited and won’t be as easy to get as the other two. Good luck to those following the release, they will be available on Saturday, November 22nd at Proper and other retailers.
