I thought he was gonna give Tyler a hard time but surprised me when he was talkin bout “this piece might end up in a museum”
If some of the nacklaces had other precious rocks like rubi or something it would be much more unique and interesting
Daniela Rodrigues one of them has a rainbow grill with sapphires and rubies and everything. I forget who it is. Maybe Lil Yachty
Edit: yeah it’s lil yachty.
YG has a Miami Cuban with rubies in. Tbh it doesn’t look as good as diamond, it looks like a fake chain.
Also rubies and sapphires are almost the same price. if it’s a flawless baguette at 1 carat, you better have a vvs1 ruby to match the baguette because baguettes are hella expensive
Daniela Rodrigues two months later love😂
I find diamonds to be boring because they lack the beautiful colors that you can get in a gem. Personally, I love Topaz in all its variations
rubi? nAcklace? 😂😂🤣🤣💀💀💀
I get the "image" thing they're going for, but I really wish more of these guys used other precious stones like sapphires and rubies in their pieces. That leopard necklace would've been amazing with emerald eyes or something; very Cartier inspired.
people watch more the price than the art
“what’s the price”
“normally $20,000 but for you $10”

Jewelry never increases in value. The guy even stated that out of all that bling only one is museum quality. Eventually these jewels will be dismantled and sold off piece by piece, diamond by diamond. It's just a matter of when.
Unless it has some celebrity’s sweat on it or something.
Doesn't matter if only one is museum quality, people will want them just because they were owned by the rappers. Anything they touch is worth more.

But at the same time, it is their money that they earned and they can do whatever they want with it and yeah it would be cool if more of them gave it to charity but it's also not really their job to do so. I kinda put more of that responsibility on the government and other charities and etc. that are supposed to be helping the people, but sometimes dont. That also doesn't mean that they are all terrible people though. Are some of them a bit shallow and selfish? Yeah, probably..so are some people who are not rich. Plus, some are not super gaudy.
