We've covered a ton of Rappers here on this channel who have opted
for some mind blowing custom pendants and chains to celebrate their success.
Each opting for something that represents their claim to fame, their catchphrase or
some nostalgia for their favourite childhood heroes.
It's not just Rappers dropping stacks at the most popular Jewellery store around the globe,
YouTubers have also gotten in on the fun with a select few spending as much as the price
of a house on custom piece.
Others have been more modest only dropping a few racks while some of been sporting fake
ice....
In our last two Top 5 Rapper chain videos you guys requested we make one of these taking
a look specifically at YouTubers and I've found some pretty interesting pieces from
the best to the worst to fill out this top 5 list.
What's going on guys?
It's your boy Michael McCrudden back at it with another Rappers Chain list video.
Be sure to smash that like button if you are enjoying this series to make sure we bring
you more.
Also let me know which chain is your favorite and who belongs on our next list.
Aright, let's get into this video...
First up in the number 5 spot we have The Backpack Kid:
Russell has been able to turn his online clout into a pretty remarkable career.
Some though the kid would get his 15 seconds and that would be that but he continued to
tour, book interviews, he's dropped his own EP and even sat down with Genius.
Hailing from Atlanta he was invited to pay a visit to Icebox Diamonds & Watches located
in the upscale are of Buckhead.
Having made a name for himself and with a reported net worth of 1/2 a million dollars.
Backpack kid told me that he's only made one lavish purchase since finding online fame.
When opting for a custom piece, he of course went for a Backpack and dropped $25K on the
piece.
It features 673 round, brilliant-cut diamonds ... which weighs almost 10 freakin' carats!!!
The pendant also features 40 grams of 14 karat yellow gold.
It also has a hinge at the bottom, so it copens and closes to reveal Backpack Kid' name engraved
on the side.
And, to further prove how phenomenally successful the Kid's become since his dance went viral...
BK dropped around 25K for the new bling and a Miami Cuban Link chain.
Our next piece is a bit of a tricky situation – were talking about Logan Paul's Impaulsive
chain which he gave to Aaron Paul clocking in at number 4.
It might not be worth 100's of millions but it is in fact a 100% legit piece.
This appears to have been a gift to Logan from Suny The Jeweler at Oxford Diamonds out
in Atlanta.
He posted about the piece on IG:
Before convincing Logan to trade he was conveniently able to check the piece out with his Diamond
tester.
Aright, if you wanna know how much the piece costs I continue the story in the next spot
with Aaron Carter's chain which technically should be in the number 5 spot but I'm trying
to keep these videos nice and organized for your viewing pleasure.
Aaron Carter Number 3.
Although technically not a YouTuber his recent appearances on Pod Casts and activity via
Social Media would conclude that Aaron is moving in this direction.
Sitting down on the Impaulsive PodCast Aaron was proud to show off his custom piece he
claimed to have designed and made himself.
It was later debunked that he picked up the piece at a pawn shop a few weeks earlier.
Aaron insists it's 50K of VV2's and decided to light it up with a diamond tester for
the boys.
Despite this set back Aaron was able to convince Logan to swap him chains.
They then went and got his piece appraised by a Beverly Hills Jeweller who agreed with
Diamond device stating that the chain was fake but the diamond pendant was real.
The pendant was worth between $6000 and $7000 dollars but Logan's Impaulsive chain was worth
almost $10K more.
Essentially Aaron managed to jack Logan and then the call out resulted in some Twitter
Beef online.
Aaron stated:
‘Ain’t nobody’s chain fake @LoganPaul so you can give that right back to me.
You did not confirm it in anyway shape or form it’s 50 carrots of vvs vvs1 s1 and
s2 diamonds.
In white gold 18 K If you gotta issue and are gonna talk behind my back say it to my
face again.
B***H!!’ he wrote.
In summary, the pendant was real – the chain was not and Aaron has since moved to Canada.
Aright, enough with the white dudes.
Moving onto the number 2 spot I gotta include my boy CJ So Cool.
It's impossible to keep track of all of CJ's Jewelry collection with him adding new pieces
almost monthly.
That was back in 2018 when CJ had his CJ So Cool pendent, another one of his face and
a brand new Cuban Link all iced out in the finest of diamonds.
His girl Royalty picked this piece up for him to celebrate their 4 year anniversary
together and in return he bought her a Rolex.
I got no idea what a piece like that would cost, if you have any idea sound off down
below.
They grabbed this piece at Iceberk Diamonds in Las Vegas Nevada.
I cruised over CJ's IG looking to see if he's gotten any new additions to his collection
– no chains but he did just pick up a brand new iced out watch so the dude is doing a
okay!
He's even gifted each of his family members with their own pieces:
Finally, in the number 1 spot by a long shot we have KSI with his $500,000 Dragon Ball
Z Beerus
Chain
Estimates from Business Insider believe that KSI earned a reported 11 Million off of his
bout with Logan Paul and he's been dropping $200K on a watch, $10K on shoes he could easily
afford to drop 1/2 a million on a custom chain.
After much deliberation he visited his go to jewelers asking for a Beerus piece which
included 2,000 stones of such gems as sapphires, yellow diamonds, and even 18 karat gold in
what took over 550 hours of craftsmanship to achieve.
If you haven't seen KSI rocking it in a video it's because he claims to have it locked away
for safe keeping with a bank.
That didn't stop someone from claiming to have stolen it and put it up on Ebay with
an asking price of $5 bucks for the piece.
Over 90 bids came in bulking up it's street value to over 65K British pounds before the
listing was removed.
