how you know Ice Box didnt be a partial sponsor of the party? Not uncommon at all. They bring a mobile store to prop up at the party, around a lot of wealthy people, even if they dont buy at that time it could lead to future sales. They could of paid to have a booth at the party. Happens at almost all big events..


Or maybe IceBox and Lil Baby had an arrangement to be paid off commission if people at his party bought from them there or over time as well.

This is why most people are broke. They can't think outside the box, everything is black and white with what they see. You dont know what arrangement was made for that to be there.

Theirs levels to this getting money shyt.


It’s buffoonery. I don’t give a fucc if they paid him or not.

We love trinkets :yeshrug:
the biggest joke is those jewellers sell everyday black people garbage. they'll sell them lab-gorwon melee didamonds at natural diamond prices and nikkas happily buy cause the don't know better.

melee jewelry is costly cause of the labour not the stones.

better off buying emerald, sapphire, and other gemstones in 2 carat stones or more accented with melees of e-f clarity or better for a real bang for your buck.

Perhaps when there was a national awakening to how dire the situation is for black America. We're not simply in last place; we're lining the bottom of the shoes worn by every other group on this planet. We're a laughingstock of the world. Gross displays of consumerism like this by African Americans is disgraceful and abhorrent. We haven't earned the right to show off this kind of manufactured glitz, and the continued promotion of it is feeding a dangerous lie to our children that will only set themselves up for failure and a life of mental distress.

These record labels might as well build a jewelry store right on the premises and have their own dealership right down the street so they can really get their money back.

These rappers love making Arab, White and Asians rich with that gaudy junk jewelry that they will probably get a dime on the dollar for, IF that when they have to eventually sell when those checks stop coming in. It's sad that none of these guys have somebody in their ear telling them to stop being so reckless with the spending.

You know these Arab jewelers literally laughing to the bank. Black peoples obsession with spending wildly to impress others is one of the biggest thing hurting the community. But I guess that’s why they killed all the black leaders and gave them Future and Lil Wayne to idolize smh.
Arabs flex the hardest
