Rappers Top Four Most Outrageous Purchases

1) Copy of ceiling painting in the Sistine Chapel.

Kanye West

With statements like “I am the closest hip-hop comes to God” and “I’m like a ghetto Pope” it can hardly be surprising that even hardcore rapper chose a divine motive, since he would have decorated his dining room with a ceiling painting. 0,33 million dollars later, Kanye got his wish: a faithful copy of Michelangelo’s painting of the Sistine Chapel in the Vatican … However, with the small change that he had put his own face on one of the disciples face. Sigh.

2) Matching Gold Teeth for him and his lady

NAS

What is more romantic than a set of matching “his and her” gold teeth? Nothing, of course! It may fairly be what the New York rapper NAS had in mind when he invested 180,000 dollars in two matching set of gold teeth to himself and his girlfriend Kelis to their wedding in 2005. And guess what, now they are divorced… how sad...

3) Pure Gold Chain Record weight

Lil Jon

It is no secret that rappers are happy to buy grotesque jewelry. But no-one can even come close Lil Jon when it comes to acquiring serious bling-bling. The mad crunk-rap is in the Guinness Book of Records for the largest necklace-pendant ever. The pendant with the words “Crunk Is not Dead” weighs 2.3 kg, is 19 cm high and 15 cm wide. It is made of solid gold and studded with a total of 3,756 diamonds. Price: 2.5 million dollars. We hardly have the heart to tell him that crunk is dead.

4)72,000 dollars worth of … Mirrors

MC Hammer

Instead of making witty comments about the man behind U Cant Touch This man spent almost an 1/8 of a million dollars on the mirrors, we will instead summarize what else the hammer bought: A dishwasher for the bedroom (for midnight snacks) , marble floors for 10 million dollars, antique golf clubs, 17 luxury cars, two golden gates to his mansion with the word “Hammer Time” written over them, racing horses for 5 million dollars and four gold chains for his dogs. Guess who went bankrupt?
