So who started the gold grillz?

[CodeBlaMeVi]

Scust at removing your teeth and replacing it with metal like Baby from Cash Money.

No, genius. The caps are cemented on like braces.

 

[NvrCMyNut]

Ny & they were called fronts

 

[NvrCMyNut]

May or may not but NY always swagger jacked some things from the 6th borough as they sometimes call Miami.

Florida nigs might just be the worst dressed dudes in the entire developed world no bs, all the transplants in south fl hasn't changed how country y'all are one bit

I don't dress like those cats but you're not lying. However, we're talking about gold teeth.

Are you really trying to compare having one dusty ass gold cap in your mouth to gold fronts?

It was most of the time multiple teeth and grills evolved from that, so yes, I am comparing that because thats how it started.

Oh ok than pirates started gold fronts

South Lost

 

[Trajan]

Jamaicans?

Grills are associated more with the Dirty South these days but the trend started in the East. Slick Rick was one of the very first rappers to rock gold teeth, closely followed by Just Ice.

Like furry Kangols, gold teeth were popular with Jamaican reggae artists around that time. Slick Rick and Just Ice both have Jamaican parents. Coincidence?
