One of these things is not like the other. The latest iteration of the epic Rock the Bells hip-hop festival made its way to Mountain View, CA, over the weekend. As is to be expected when so many hip-hop heavyweights converge at one place in one time there was no shortage of on-feet sightings of all sorts. DMX showed up with an outfit channeling his days of yore, Timberlands and all. Fellow former Ruff Ryder Sheek Louch was also present, albeit with a more contemporary selection in the form of the recently released Air Jordan VII ‘Olympic’. Comparative youngin’s Mac Miller and Kid Cudi rounded out the group in the Air Jordan VII ‘Bordeaux’ and the Air Jordan VIII ‘Aqua’. Stay with us after the jump for this photo recap and stick with Sneaker News should more shots pop up featuring sneaker sightings from Rock the Bells.

We’re sure that a few smug folks turned their nose up at last year’s Air Jordan VII ‘Bordeaux’ retro, those keen enough to still have a pair on ice after 19 years of waiting. And while we’ve got to tip our hats to those folks there is an even higher bar to reach as far as Air Jordan VII preservation goes. This awesome set blows the competitors out of the water by coming packaged with the forgotten matching sock set, a pair featuring the arrowhead 23 logo on the sides. Click through to check out this deadstock pair of Air Jordan VII’s straight out of 1992 and bid on complete set now from cnoriega_2007 on eBay.

The Air Jordan VII continues to be a hot trend in sneakers at the moment much in part due to Chris Paul’s Air Jordan VII ‘Olympic Gold Medal’ PE as well as the upcoming release of the Golden Moment Pack. But preceding the ‘Olympic’ is the original Black/True Red colorway of the Air Jordan VII that Michael Jordan debuted after the 1992 NBA All-Star Game; this OG Air Jordan introduced the off-beat purple into the primary ‘Chicago Bulls’ colorway of an Air Jordan shoe, and as Jordan Brand keeps things close to the vest with the tonal black nubuck upper and True Red distinction. Will you cop these on September 1st?

If you’re planning on grabbing the Air Jordan ‘Golden Moments’ pack this weekend, at least from Foot Locker, you’ve gotta jump through a couple of hoops that include picking up a raffle ticket and then waiting around to see if you’re number is chosen. Of course if you’re a platinum pop-megastar then you can skip all that and just rest easy with the promo pair you’ve had for a few weeks now. Rihanna certainly fits that bill, her Air Jordan prowess having been proved plenty of times before. This Tokyo sighting sees her rocking the Air Jordan VII from the group, no word yet on whether she’ll pull a Drake and turn around with the other half of the box set soon. Click through for the full views and let us know what you think of Rihanna in this coveted Air Jordan VII ‘Golden Moments’.

You didn’t think with all of his Air Jordan connections that Drake ended up with only half of the upcoming Air Jordan ‘Golden Moments’ pack did you? Completing the set is this string of photos from his cameo appearance at the Nicki Minaj Pink Friday tour stop in NYC. Much like the last sighting he keeps his whole outfit locked on to the sneakers, ditching that white Puff Daddy era tracksuit for an all black look here complete with a bit of gold around the neck. Continue reading to take a look at all the photos and let us know in the comments below which pair from the ‘Golden Moments’ package you’re more excited for.

Hats off to you if you were around during the days when Michael Jordan used to debut the next in line for the Air Jordan series at the NBA All-Star Game each year. 20 years ago that sneaker was the Air Jordan VII ‘Bordeaux’, with its on-screen debut solidifying yet another Tinker Hatfield hit from the Air Jordan lineup. One young man was fortunate enough to take home that very pair that MJ wore on February 9th, 1992, an autographed gift from Michael as part of a Make a Wish Foundation arranged meet and greet after the game. Click through with us to check out this insane piece of Air Jordan history straight out of Michael Jordan’s All-Star Game performance and peep the chance to bid on the game-worn Air Jordan VII ‘Bordeaux’ original at Grey Flannel.
