Beyoncé & Jay-Z Are Tiffany & Co.'s New Brand Ambassadors

[RedCloakBlackWraithe]

First the gifted Bentley to billionaire sex criminal Robert Kraft

Now he’s unveiling iconic black artwork on behalf of a blood diamond factory

Ultra black

@Kamala Harris @Gator Reloaded these are your heroes

i told bruddas, jay-z is the silver surfer to corporate galactusesesesesess

 

[DaPresident]

That's my GOAT

 

[ExodusNirvana]

The painting belonged to Tiffanys, who bought it FROM Basquiat

 

[skokiaan]

A 5 year old painted that shyt

[Code]

This is why I laughed at their whole "problack" phase lmao

They both want to be white

Oh shyt damn that’s dope as hell. Crazy how jay z name is semi automatically associated with basquiat

This makes it even worse for me. It’s basically posing on the hood of someone else’s Ferrari in the parking lot

But the person that owns the Ferrari asked you to take pictures of you posing on the hood and giving you $2M to do so.

That's what advertising is for the most part, no?

Steph Curry doesn't own Carmax, but he's getting paid to stand in their parking lot to promote it.

 

[Sohh_lifted]

well this campaign is donating $2m to HBCUs ....it's never too late for yall lil brehs to learn more and get your weight up

Where does all that money for the Roc Nation/NFL deal go to tho?

It's because Hov is trying to bring more attention and value to dudes work because he one of the great Black artists of our time

Hov in his mind, is one of the great Black artists of our time as well, so in his mind he is keeping JMB's legacy alive by highlighting his work

And in typical Hov fashion, he has Basquiats (extremely valuable pieces of artwork long before Hov even mentioned that mans name) all over his cribs as if they are casual pieces of artwork, when any one of those pieces could literally buy a fukking house and remodel it, and maybe add a pool and garage and a nice car to place inside of said garage and probably still have some money left over to furnish the home.

He's literally helping to bolster and maintain JMB's legacy all while hitting the haters with a "...motherfukka can you buyyyyy that?" Goldie move

wasn't he just screaming fubu then sold some of tidal to cacs and now this

At this point it's clear dude is an economic agent. His sole purpose is to trick black people into thinking he's creating black wealth but really funnelling black money into white hands for a fee

 

[ryderldb]

how long till hov uses a baquiat on his album cover

He’s trying his hardest to look like him.

 

[Flywin Lannister]

This is 1 horrendous look

 

[Losttribe]

really? how?

doesn't sound like their plan but go for it. looks like they wanted a bag for advertising

I'm saying had they got together with their other buddie and promoted a black brand then that brand would become a billion plus corp.

Instead they keep pushing typical white corps

 

[Standing on business]

Tiffany & Co. honors Beyoncé, JAY-Z with $2 million pledge for Black scholarships and internships

Good to know

And looks like Jay has a relationship with LVMH who just brought Tiffany

He sold half his stake in Ace of Spades to LVMH last year

Got Rihanna a deal some years back

Rihanna and LVMH Are Pausing the Fenty Fashion House – WWD

Jay-Z sells stake in champagne brand to luxury giant LVMH

Others like Lupita Nyong'o was also a brand ambassador and been collaborating with Tiffany for years

Tiffany & Co. Debuts a New Campaign Featuring Lupita Nyong'o

No biggie

Think about what these posters are implying, they’re pretty much saying advertising for a non black company makes you a sellout. Do you know how deep down a rabbit hole we can go with that train of though. Basically every celebrity and athlete is a sellout



Oh and they were real quiet in this thread. No responses

Beyoncé stay putting on for black people
