Bootlegged CDs were a staple of any rap fan’s collection at one point, but now they are nearly obsolete with streaming services and digital marketplaces taking over the industry.

While taking a trip inside a gas station’s mini-mart Thursday afternoon (April 1), 2 Chainz came across a collection of bootlegged rap albums being sold for $3.99 apiece. After sifting through the random CDs, he actually saw his 2020 So Help Me God! album.

“$2.99 or three dollars? $3.99. Lemme get two,” he jokes with the cashier who probably has no idea that 2 Chainz is buying a bootlegged version of his own album. There also looks to be a fake Pop Smoke project made by a fan in the gas station’s collection sitting behind Chainz’s album.

He didn’t seem to be angry either, as he was just laughing off the effort shown by people to make a few dollars and he even gave himself the new nickname of “Bootleg Toni.”
