Upcoming Drops: July 25-31

Comments are off for this post.

Let’s face it: The NFT space moves really fast. Considering how quickly things can change in the metaverse, a week in NFTs might as well be a month IRL.

Don’t get us wrong — the more people onboarded into the space, the merrier. But the constant influx of great art and new ideas makes it increasingly difficult to keep up with all the news, launches, and general happenings.

Well, you can put the days of endless Twitter and Discord scrolling behind you, as we put together a weekly list of upcoming NFT drops you definitely don’t want to miss. Here’s what to look out for this week.

Sky’s the Limit: the Notorious B.I.G. NFT collection

Who: OneOf, in collaboration with Quincy Jones Productions

What: Generative PFP NFT collection + license for a legendary Biggie freestyle

When: July 26 @ 1 p.m. ET

Where: OneOf

Why:  Nearly three decades after his untimely passing, the Notorious B.I.G. is still widely celebrated as one of the greatest rappers to ever do it. In celebration of his life and body of work, the green NFT platform OneOf is coordinating the launch of the Sky’s the Limit NFT collection. The collection is set to feature a generative PFP collection of the rap legend, and voting rights to decide the fate of one of Biggie’s most legendary freestyles. Yes — that one. All holders of NFTs from this collection gain membership rights to the Sky’s the Limit Collective, which will decide as a group which artists will have the opportunity to sample or remix the freestyle into an official, community-backed release.

Stickmen Toys

Who: Warner Records UK, Bose

What: 5,000 utility-enabled audio-visual NFTs

When: July 27 @ 2 p.m. EDT

Where: Stickmen Toys’ official website

Why:  Warner Records UK has come together with legacy audio brand Bose to release a collection of 5,000 utility-enabled, audio-visual NFTs — for free. In addition to hosting this free mint for interested collectors, owners of these NFTs will also gain full creative and commercial rights to use them as they see fit. To accompany the launch of this collection, Bose is also giving away unique, limited edition Stickmen Toys-themed headphones and Bluetooth speakers for owners of these NFTs, along with planned merchandise also redeemable for free in the future.

The Lepidopterror Collection

Who: Maxim (the Prodigy)

What: 888 still images of four different butterflies

When: July 27, time TBA

Where: Crypto.com

Why: British artist Maxim, best known for his work as part of pioneering electronic music group The Prodigy, is launching Lepidopterror — a new NFT collection — this week, allowing fans to experience the visual side of his artistic expression. The collection will contain 888 still images of butterflies of varying rarities. One hundred fifty of the butterflies in the collection will be demarcated into unique categories, with the remaining 738 butterflies marked as “Citizens.”

Reverspective

Who: Patrick Hughes

What: Collection mechanics TBA

When: July 27 @ 6:30 p.m. ET

Where: MakersPlace

Why:  British artist Patrick Hughes’ six-decade-spanning art career is about to take a new turn via his upcoming NFT art collection. This upcoming collection titled Reverspectives is named after Hughes’ unique three-dimensional perspective paintings. When viewed head-on, these paintings look like any other perspectival painting. However, these paintings suddenly take on a three-dimensional appearance with a subtle change in viewing angle. With this in mind, experiencing these works digitally makes perfect sense.

Festival of Gratitude

Who: Walid Raad

What: Slices from a host of “very special” virtual birthday cakes

When: July 28 @ 10 a.m. ET

Where: artwrld

Why:  Artist Walid Raad has prepared a virtual feast for a few of the most infamous world leaders from modern history, starting with birthday cakes for Hugo Chávez, King Abdullah, and Vladimir Putin. Sales from this upcoming collection will go towards nonprofit organizations curated by Raad himself — most notably Endaoment’s Support Ukrainian Sovereignty fund via sales of the collection’s Putin cake.
