Ludacris has a tough time parting with certain items, but with 22 acres of land on his Georgia estate, he doesn’t have an issue finding space. Joining The Breakfast Club on Tuesday (August 17), Luda admitted to being quite the hoarder of his stuff over the years.
“My wife will tell you I am the worst when it comes to hoarding,” he explained. “My wife’s family, they still live in Africa, so everything I hoard we put on this container that goes across the water and I give it to everybody in Africa who’s going to appreciate it so much more than any family members or anybody I could give to in the United States of America. I am the worst hoarder of all, trust.”
The conversation began when DJ Envy thanked Ludacris for sending his vintage Acura Legend from the ’90s to his car show, which Ludacris still drives and has over 250,000 miles on. The car holds sentimental value with the Atlanta legend since he copped it before his mainstream rap career took off.
“I’ve had that car now two decades,” Ludacris admitted. “There are things that you have for your whole life and that’s one of those things that’s a staple in my life. I had it before the deal and commercial success, so I’m gonna ride it literally until the wheels fall off.”

In other news, Ludacris also teamed up with Jif on a partnership deal. The commercial finds Luda using Jif peanut butter as a secret ingredient of sorts that leads him to develop an Auto-Tuned flow to rap with and creating another hit record. Gunna also makes a cameo in the clip and will be appearing on the remix to his latest track “Butter.Atl.”
spoken like a true cornball. just stick to your acting, oh wait what acting all you know is fast n furious. sellout
Right because making more money is a bad thing…
He’s a great rapper show some respect asshole
It takes one to know one.
oh no you showed him lol
fuck you
Ludacris is how I would imagine all rappers should grow and kind of retire. Like you don’t have shit else to prove, we know you can spit, and you’re getting money to the point where it’s silly to be rapping grimy like you were in your 20s and 30s. Nas and Jay are two others on that path even though Ludacris is really doing it on all facets. He’s just like a dad now who still is dope as hell on the mike if he decides to pick it up.
Watching an old episode of Martin with Biggie, I imagine if he, Pac, and others had lived and how that’s what they would have become once they passed their edgy youth, and I hope some of these youngsters get to this point although they seem to be more focused on self-destruction than ever. Same with DMX because he never grew out of it and let it consume and kill him at an older age.
I definitely feel you on this. However, I can not help but feel that the field of play would not allow Ludacris in particular to grow in this environment. Ludacris tried the grown and sexy on to album attempts and did not get the same respect Nas and Jay Z has gotten there latter projects. The same happened to Eminem we tried to be mature on a project (Revival) and was made fun of. It is a whole knew game as an older mcee that does get explored unfortunately. I personally think Luda should be like 5 stacks spitting on these features like an OG. He deserves it and the game could use it.
