It's the weekend, baby!
Days are getting longer, and we're finally seeing signs of spring. But, in the vast world of the internet, plenty of things remain the same.
This week, Kanye West continued his ongoing social media stint, targeting a handful of people including Trevor Noah and D.L. Hughley, as well as Kim Kardashian and Pete Davidson, of course, which resulted in Instagram putting a 24-hour suspension on the rapper's account.
Elsewhere, Kid Cudi's anticipated A24 movie X premiered, we dropped a Highsnobiety collaboration with Jacob & Co., Kendall Jenner used a bottle of tequila as an accessory, and Blake Lively is co-chair of the Met Gala with Ryan Reynolds, Lin Manuel Miranda, and Regina King.
We also saw a handful of drops, ranging from GmbH x ASICS and C.P. Company x Clarks, to a rumored adidas x Balenciaga Triple-S sneaker, and some stellar apparel from Swedish label Our Legacy.
It's been a hectic week, to say the least, so if you're in need of a recap, we've got this week's biggest news compiled below.
