Young Money/Cash Money Records must have something on the Jordan company. The label’s biggest artists continue to have shoe deals with the historic brand. Drake has been creating sneakers combining his OVO logo with the Jumpman logo for years. And Nicki Minaj will work more with the basketball company. It’s clear that Michael Jordan and his company enjoy having two of the biggest musical acts in the world on their team! Also, Drake feels the same way.
Run It Back
The Champagne Papi expresses his feelings about the sneaker company on Instagram. The Her Loss rapper posted a photo of his Jordan 10s. Also, pointing out that legendary comedian Jerry Seinfeld signed them. In the caption, the 6 God wrote, “run back my Jordan deal”. It’s safe to say he is happy making deals with Michael Jordan. Additionally, Drake is doing big things in the clothing sector. He has his own NOCTA brand with Nike as well. As he has always said, most of his moves are calculated. And the “In My Feelings” rapper is known to take jabs at people who are not his friends. Could linking up with Nike and Jordan be a snipe at Ye? Ye is not associated with any clothing brand at the moment.

Barbie Air Jordan
Nonetheless, Nicki Minaj has been working with the Jordan brand a little longer than her labelmate has. The 40-year-old rapper has worked with the prominent brand throughout the 2010s! When she released her album, The Pinkprint in 2014, Nicki requested that many sneakers be made to celebrate the project. Unfortunately, sneakers never hit stores, a few fans were able to get their hands on them. Recently, a photo of a pair of sneakers circulated through social media. They were the Air Jordan 6 Lows in “Barbie Pink”. Fans online couldn’t get enough. Also, the Jordan brand should think about releasing these sneakers, possibly a limited edition? The Barbz would be excited.
