Kendrick Lamar has made it clear that he does not trust Drake with 2Pac‘s legacy, and a jeweler is now stepping in to try and resolve the issue.
Last year, Drizzy bought the iconic crown ring once worn by the late rapper for $1 million at an auction. Clearly upset by this, K.Dot demanded that his rival hand over the prized item to him during a concert in Los Angeles earlier this month.
On Monday (June 24), a New York City lapidary named Maksud Agadjani posted a video on Facebook in which he proposed a solution by offering to make the Compton native a duplicate of said piece.
“Kendrick is telling Drake to give up 2Pac’s ring,” he began while displaying the product. “Well this is 2Pac’s ring right here — this is a replica of the original one purchased by Drake, and Kendrick’s not happy about that.
“Hey Kendrick, if you can’t get the ring back on your own, you can always buy this one from traxnyc.com. For all the 2Pac fans or whatever, jewelry fans, fans that are ‘Not Like Us,’ fans that are like us — whatever it might be.”
Kung Fu Kenny recently celebrated Juneteenth by hosting and performing at his “Pop Out” show at the Forum in Inglewood, during which he played a number of his diss tracks aimed at the Canadian superstar.
While opening his set with “euphoria,” he altered the lyrics and rapped: “Give me 2Pac’s ring back and I might give you a little respect.”
The jewelry item in question is made of gold, ruby and diamonds, and features an inscription that reads “Pac & Dada 1996,” referencing the Death Row Records alum’s engagement to his girlfriend Kidada Jones. He famously wore the piece during his final public appearance at the MTV Video Music Awards, just days before he was tragically killed at the age of 25 in a drive-by shooting in Las Vegas.
While the identity of the winning bidder was initially kept a secret, the 6 God later revealed that he bought what is now the most valuable Hip Hop artifact ever sold at an auction.
The aforementioned concert was packed with shots directed at Drake, as Kendrick even referenced his rival’s use of a computer-generated version of 2Pac’s voice on “Taylor Made Freestyle” via artificial-intelligence technology and said: “Y’all ain’t gonna let anyone disrespect the West Coast or mock our legends.”
even if the carats and integrity right who paying 1M for a replica of a 25K piece? wonder how much this ad for his jury sto cost
even if the carats and integrity right who paying 1M for a replica of a 25K piece? wonder how much this ad for his jury sto cost, its worth Ms cuz Pac actually blessed it winner

Too late. Drake touched it and the ring infected with wack juice. The ring has depreciated harder than an 03 Honda Civic.
As much as I hate Drake, I think this demanding a ring back is corny. Drake bought it from Pacs family or whoever Pacs family sold it too. So the legal chain of custody is legit. Yo Kenny, buy it from him.
He can’t because of the splits he do. Everytime he gets the money to buy it. He has to drop and give em 50.. lmao
You sound like you’ve already given a 100, right great greg. We all know it’s your gay ass with an even more obvious gay name.
And if anyone knows a thing or 2 about being corny, it’s a me!
These culture vultures are always watching smh
Id sniff the dirtiest, wettest, nastiest fart that Drake can rip without even needing to come up for oxygen
The point isn’t the ring design, it’s that the original belonged to Pac. Nobody wants your knockoff trinkets. Also, your Trump life size sex doll in the background makes it clear you have no taste, or scruples. FOH
