It looks like Drake is dipping his toe into a different faith with his latest shiny new purchase. The rapper shared a story on Instagram showing off his new chain designed by jeweller, Jacob & Co., thanking the company for making one of his "dreams come true." Drake, who is Jewish, claims he always wanted to rock an "icey cross" despite the Christian background of the famous symbol.
Drake is definitely no stranger to the chain game. Back in 2017, he copped a Stone Island-inspired chain designed by jeweller Ben Baller. The piece is modelled after the Italian brand's compass logo and has the words, "on tour," written on it. It also features Drake's 6 God logo on the back with the words, "BRINGING THAT CERTY," written above. A year later, the OVO founder debuted a "life size" owl chain, made of "over a kilo of gold & and over 100 carats of Asscher cut diamonds" and designed by famous celebrity jeweller Jason of Beverly Hills. Just last month, Drake commissioned Jason of Beverly Hills once again to create some similar pieces for himself and his "Life Is Good" and "Desires" collaborator Future, to kick off what many believe to be the second-coming of their What A Time To Be Alive era. That same week, it was reported that Drake had also dropped a cool $1 million on a 100-carat, heart-shaped diamond chain by Gemma Fine Jewelry. If ever there was any doubt that this man's got some extra cash lying around, he's ensured that we know just how good life is for him.

Tekashi 6ix9ine’s Ex-Manager Shotti Wears Red Chain In New Prison Photo
Shotti is still repping the Nine Trey Bloods from behind bars.
Kifano “Shotti” Jordan, the former manager of controversial Brooklyn rapper Tekashi 6ix9ine, is getting used to his surroundings. The infamous Nine Trey Bloods member was sentenced to fifteen years in prison for his role in their racketeering crimes, being exposed as one of the more active members of the group. When 6ix9ine was at the witness stand during the trials of Harv and Nuke, his kidnappers, he called out everybody that he used to run with, including Shotti. The rapper claims that his former manager was sleeping with his baby’s mother, something that has left a seriously bad taste in his rainbow grills. Shotti denies that he was ever intimate with Sara Molina, but he did previously tell a judge that he would never break, bend or fold. With that said, he could very well be holding back some information. Jordan was recently pictured from behind bars in a photo that made its way onto the internet, shared by DJ Akademiks, giving everybody a quick update on the notorious “Treyway.”

Standing between two men in grey sweatsuits, Shotti wears a red rosary necklace, which appears to be allowed in his prison center. The color choice is significant since, well, he’s a well-known member of a Blood division. Clearly, Shotti intends on staying true to his family even though he can’t be in the streets.
How is he looking? It looks like he’s keeping his head held high despite being sentenced to a lengthy term in a cell.
