Major League Soccer, the leading soccer league in North America, and October’s Very Own partnered with one of the greatest living street artists in the game for a new collection. MLS and OVO joined forces with the legendary Mr. Cartoon for a new drop featuring three Major League Soccer squads.
Major League Soccer represents 26 teams in the United States and three teams from Canada and is currently in its 29th year in existence. While soccer isn’t as large a sport in North America as it is globally, MLS has made great strides in providing great sports competitions and entertainment for its fans.
OVO, founded by Drake, has been part of the fashion wave for years and the decision to work with Mr. Cartoon resulted in a limited-edition run of pieces that went on sale today (May 19) online. The collection will prominently feature three MLS teams, Toronto FC, LAFC, and New York City FC.
Mr. Cartoon has enjoyed a long career stemming from his early beginnings as a graffiti artist in Los Angeles before larger projects and his extensive tattoo work. Today, Cartoon’s work graces not only murals and fashion collaborations but also album covers.
The collection will feature an array of hoodies, sweat shorts, and t-shirts.
You can find the collection here at octobersveryown.com. Toronto FC fans will be able to cop their collection at shop.realsports.ca and at BMO Field beginning Saturday, May 27

Espolòn Tequila, an award-winning brand operated by the stellar Campari Group, joined forces with streetwear brand PAISABOYS and famed street artist SentRock for a month-long celebration they’re calling Cinco Para Todos. Simply put, the brands want folks to celebrate Cinco de Mayo all month long via Cinco Para Todos with the release of a fashion collection and pop-ups throughout the nation.
We’re late getting this story up as the brand launched officially on Cinco de Mayo (May 5) and that’s on us. That said, let’s get more into what Cinco Para Todos is all about.
The line features artwork that depicts the artists’ Mexican heritage and pride, and there are planned pop-ups in Chicago, New York City, Miami, Chicago, Austin, and Phoenix all month long.
In celebration of Cinco de Mayo, cult-favorite streetwear brand, PAISABOYS, as well as notable street artist Sentrock (presented by Stadium Goods), have partnered with Espolòn Tequila to launch the Cinco Para Todos collection, which celebrates modern Mexican culture. Espolòn will be operating tortilleria parties in the aforementioned cities where fans can get their hands on the exclusive drop.
“Some of the best music, food and innovations have come from Mexico, so Espolòn continues to celebrate this culture year round. As a tequila made in the heart of Jalisco, Espolòn Tequila proudly celebrates the impact of the rich culture of modern Mexican creatives and game changers, and want to encourage others to do the same,” Sean Yelle, Senior Category Marketing Director, White Spirits at Campari America, shared in a statement. “Cinco Para Todos was created to extend celebrations and highlight creators who are changing culture and delivering authentic experiences, to keep the spirit of Mexico alive all season long.”
“As first generation Mexican-Americans and Los Angeles natives, our background and community have inspired some of our most successful designs,” Javier Bandera and Joey Barba, Co-Founders of the streetwear brand, PAISABOYS, added in a statement. “For this collection, we wanted to create something that was inspired by Espolòn Tequila as well as the vibrant Mexican culture that’s so prevalent in LA and bring that distinctive vibe to streetwear fanatics across the country.”
“Espolòn Tequila and I share a passion for freedom and expression, which is why the design I created for the line pairs my trademark symbol – the bird-mask – with theirs – Ramón the Rooster – to show our shared values while also paying homage to our rich culture,” Sentrock shared.
As a side note, fans of Lupe Fiasco might know that the artist has a song named after him that just dropped from his fellow Chicago native.

John Legend isn’t holding back. After Megyn Kelly ripped into the outfit Chrissy Teigen wore for the White House Correspondents’ Dinner last weekend, the “All Of Me” singer had some choice words for the polarizing conservative commentator.

Speaking to TMZ on Thursday (May 4), Legend theorized that Kelly chose to attack his wife in an attempt to get back into the Republican party’s good graces. “Megyn, she likes attention,” said the 12-time Grammy winner. “She needs it after getting fired from Fox, so she has to do what she can do to get attention.” [Editor’s note: Kelly chose to leave the cable news network in 2017 to join NBC News.]
“She pissed all the conservatives off when she asked Trump a tough question, so now she’s trying to figure out a way to win them back,” Legend added. “She’s desperate.”
Indeed, Kelly has clashed with Trump and his followers ever since she asked the former president point-blank about his track record of calling women “fat pigs” and “slobs” during a Republican debate in 2015. Eight years later, Teigen attends President Biden’s 2023 WHCD in a leggy gown and a few assistants there to help carry her train — and Kelly takes issue.
“I see Chrissy Tiegen’s underpants,” the former Fox News host tweeted Monday (May 1). “And her smug elitism.”
In her SiriusXM show, Kelly also blasted Teigen for having “minions” carry the train of her “nonexistent” dress. But Legend told TMZ of the commentator, “She can just shut up.”
As for whether his wife actually deserves to be called “elitist,” Legend said that Teigen is actually “very kind, very loving, very down to earth.” And as to whether she feel bad for having helpers on hand to make sure her dress didn’t drag on the ground?
“No, why should she?” replied the musician, who agreed that getting help from assistants just comes with the territory of making public appearances as a celebrity.
It’s an accomplishment for an artist to partner with a swanky fashion house, yet a next-level achievement is unlocked by designing a collection one’s self, from inspiration to garment. For Steven Zhu, better known as Grammy-nominated producer ZHU, the feat has been reached with the debut of his rave culture-inspired NIGHTDAY fashion line.

This past March, ZHU hosted a private preview to those in the merchandising world in his showroom at the California Market Center in downtown Los Angeles. This past Friday, he opened this same showroom to fans for the first public viewing of the line. The entirely self-funded collection is designed by ZHU himself, in collaboration with his former creative director and fashion designer Emmy Slattery, who’s also worked with electronic-centric artists and brands including Monolink, Lightning In a Bottle and Production Club.
Soon, the collection will be sold through select boutiques and retailers. While pricing is not yet set, tags will be high-end, in line with other luxury brands. (You can see exclusive images of NIGHTDAY below.)
Though the NIGHTDAY collection was previewed at his 2022 EDC Las Vegas – where ZHU performed while hosting a live fashion show on a specially constructed runway – it’s been a project at least seven years in the making.
“I’m a pretty visual person. I’m very inspired by rave culture; this is something that I’ve been a part of, I’m embedded in,” says the L.A.-based multi-hyphenate. “I feel like my style has just now become influential in a way where I’ve been finally able to get the ideas from my head to a pen to silhouettes to being on a body to those bodies being in person and people seeing them.”
The NIGHTDAY line is named after his 2014 debut EP, The Nightday. ZHU says at the time of the project’s release, “Nobody knew who I was, and it was very much about the club and dance floor.” This underground essence still plays a significant factor in his artistry – from music to clothing. Nodding at underground club culture, the NIGHTDAY collection is comprised of mostly all-black fits — from logo-free tees and hoodies to luxe leather duffles. The line focuses on the intersection of functionality and style, a flex as neither component is compromised on the dance floor.
“It’s about paying homage to the club. I’m an artist who came through the club originally by being a producer and DJ and making people dance, to evolving into somebody who is writing music and now playing at festivals and arenas,” he says. “As I’m taking this little piece of the club culture into a larger audience, I don’t want those people to forget where the fundamental origins came from — and what I’m doing with fashion is another way to tell that story.”
He cites Yohji Yamamoto, Rick Owens and Alexander McQueen as the designers and fashion houses he most admires, with the understated designs of Bottega Veneta and Prada also serving as inspiration. True to ZHU’s aesthetic, NIGHTDAY is the epitome of minimalist chic meets gritty nightlife with clean hemlines juxtaposed with glitzy fabrication.
ZHU recalls witnessing the fusion of dance music with high fashion over five years ago at the Kris Van Assche Dior Homme Autumn/Winter 2017 show and seeing a way he could elevate the effort.
“It was all rave inspired, but they weren’t booking the DJs or taking parts of the culture and putting it into their plan. I was frustrated,” ZHU says. “In hip-hop, you have artists and designers coming together in fashion and people sitting there at shows, and culturally, it’s integrating. But I feel like that’s not the case with dance music and fashion. So, a big part of this is that I can bring a bit of the culture into fashion. Hopefully, both sides can play off each other and create something exciting beyond just me.”
Bucking the cycles and seasons customary to the fashion world, ZHU aims to bend the rules by adopting a more spontaneous approach with NIGHTDAY. He mentions timing as a critical component of his decision to pursue fashion.
“You could have the best thing, but it is at the wrong time, and no one will care. Then, you could have the wrong thing, but if it’s at the right time, everybody will care,” he says. “So, I try to stay tapped into what I’m feeling on the ground level and what the streets are feeling, then move in that way.”
