Popeyes Launches Merch Line After Beyoncé adidas Collection [Photos]

POPEYES MERCH COLLECTION

Source: POPEYES / Popeyes

It seems that orange and maroon might the foolproof colors for 2020. After Beyoncé cemented that scheme into popular culture Hip-Hop’s favorite Louisiana Kitchen felt in a ways.

As spotted on Complex Bey’s recent Ivy Park collection lived up to the hype and then some. All the pieces from her adidas drop have sold out and have become streetwear grails for female millennials. One party who was not so impressed nor pleased with this new wave was Popeyes.

Upon further inspection the gear bore a striking resemblance to the fast food chain’s uniforms; down to the colors. Naturally The Internets picked up on the similarities and quickly went online to determine if there was a style thievery in place. While Sasha Fierce has yet to comment on the similarities Popeyes has bossed up and is releasing their own branded clothing for consumer consumption.

On Wednesday, January 29 the restaurant announced the release of “That Look From Popeyes”. The limited-edition drop includes the pieces worn by their employees down to their signature visors. According to the press release all proceeds will go directly to the Popeyes Foundation which seeks to “strengthen our communities with food and support in times of need” according to their mission statement.

You can see the That Look From Popeyes collection below.

McDonald’s is Reportedly Set to Add Two New Chicken Sandwiches to Breakfast Menu

The chicken sandwich craze is set to make a return in the new year, but this time McDonald’s is entering the chat.

If any fast-food chain restaurant can give Popeyes a run for its money, it will certainly be Mickey Dees.

Business Insider obtained leaked documents in 2018 stating that McDonald’s planned to debut two new chicken sandwiches to their breakfast menu. BI reached out to the super-fast food restaurant and they responded with a cryptic message. “What came first, the chicken or the egg? Set your alarm for more reasons to visit McDonald’s for breakfast in 2020.”

The Chicken McGriddle and McChicken Biscuit sandwiches are coming to McDonald’s on Monday, February 3rd. The new items will have the crispy, fried chicken element of the McChicken, infused with the breakfast elements of the McGriddle.

Former McDonald’s CEO, Steve Easterbrook, said last year that McDonald’s wanted to explore different avenues in the highly-competitive fast food restaurant industry.

“I mean, we’ve seen competitors ramp up their activity during this year as well actually. So having another entrant in next year will just ensure that the market share fight remains as competitive as ever.”

Police have identified a man who made headlines after stabbing another man while waiting in line at Popeyes.

According to TMZ, Prince George’s County Police Department in Maryland have issued an arrest warrant for Ricoh McClain naming him as the one responsible for the fatal stabbing that took place last week that left Kevin Tyrell Davis dead.

Police state that they were called about a fight and when they arrived on the scene they found Davis lying in the parking lot with a single stab wound that ultimately led to his untimely death. Investigators believe that the fight was started after Davis cut in line, an argument began before things escalated and turned physical outside.

Ja Rule Hops On Soapbox To Blast Popeyes Chicken, Gets Flamed Over Fyre Festival Struggle Plates

'Jennifer Lopez: All I Have' Official Finale After Party

Ja Rule crawled out of whatever hole he’s been frog croak-crooning in to tell all you chicken-loving Blacks a thing or two about yourself. The veteran rapper and apparent race relations expert hopped on his soapbox this morning to slam all the fervor surrounding the Popeyes Chicken sandwich and Twitter gave Young Jeff the business regarding those Fyre Festival struggle plates.

“Y’all really out here acting like n*ggas over a f*cking chicken sandwich… smh… now I’m never gonna eat one on principles alone!!! F*cking idiots y’all are what’s wrong with our people… I’m so disappointed in my ppl we better than this…,” Mr. Atkins wrote via Twitter on Tuesday (November 5).

Since putting up the post, Ja Rule has doubled down on his hate for the sandwich and its fallout, which reportedly included the stabbing of a Maryland man earlier this week although there’s been chatter that the beef was not over the sandwich itself. However, Twitter users have been roasting and flaming Ja Rule and we’ve got those responses below.

The Popeyes Chicken Sandwich Made Its Return & Everyone Lost Their Clucking Minds

Popeye's Chicken Sandwich

Source: Popeyes / Popeyes

When Popeyes announced back in August that the chicken sandwich “sold out,” fried chicken enthusiasts across the country scream fowl play. Over the weekend, the highly sought-after food item made its triumphant return, and as expected, people lost their damn minds.

In preparation for the sandwich’s return, Popeyes announced it would be hiring an additional 400 employees across 150 stores to handle the chicken sandwich craze who would be chicken sandwich-making duty. Though the fast-food chain thought it was  “prepared,” its poor workers could not foresee the pandemonium coming their way once Popeyes dropped the tweet that sandwich.

To add even more spice, Popeye’s brought it back on Sunday (nov.3) a tasty dig at Chic-fil-a who is closed on the day to honor the sabbath.

Reports immediately hit social media of ridiculously long lines in the restaurants with customers who were live-Tweeting their experiences. Police were on hand to direct traffic in and out of the drive-thru, absolutely insane if you have to think about it.

The chicken sandwich craze even hit the NFL, DeShaun Watson revealed that the Popeyes chicken sandwich helped him after he endured an eye injury a game the previous week.

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver, Stefon Diggs, even sported a pair of Popeyes chicken sandwich themed cleats on the field. The Vikings lost to the Chiefs, though, so we’re sure he won’t be sporting them again.

We’re truly living out an episode of The Boondocks at this point. You can peep the rest of the ridiculousness in the gallery below.
