Tee Grizzley’s new chain comes equipped with more than just expensive diamonds; it carries a warning to anyone who may be thinking about snatching it.
The Detroit rapper flaunted his latest jewelry purchase on his Instagram Stories on Wednesday (November 2), giving his followers a close-up of the diamond-encrusted pendant depicting his trademark grizzly bear holding a fish in its mouth.
“What’s nice comes twice,” he said in the clip. “We don’t cry about no losses, we gon’ get it back. Speaking of back, you see what the back of that say?”
Tee Grizzley then flipped over his pendant to reveal a message directed at other rappers and would-be robbers. “This ain’t worth dying over,” it reads.
“That’s a big fact,” he continued. “We don’t buy jewelry back off the streets. You better not get caught with it.”
Tee Grizzley’s iced-out warning comes after he was robbed of over $1 million in jewelry and cash. According to police, burglars broke into his home in the affluent Los Angeles suburb of Porter Ranch in early September. Thankfully, neither Tee nor anyone in his family were home at the time.
“I appreciate everyone reaching out and checking on me and shit,” the 28-year-old said in an Instagram video after news of the robbery surfaced. “I’m good and my family good, thank God!”
Tee Grizzley is far from the only rapper to be targeted by thieves of late. Megan Thee Stallion was also the victim of a burglary in October after robbers took off with almost $500,000 in jewelry, cash and electronics from her L.A. pad.
PnB Rock — a close friend and collaborator of Tee Grizzley — tragically lost his life during a robbery at a South Los Angeles restaurant in September. The Philadelphia native, 30, was shot and killed after at least one armed culprit demanded the couple’s jewelry.
Following his death, Tee Grizzley paid tribute to PnB Rock on social media. “Love you broski you was a real friend I’ll never forget you,” he wrote on Instagram next to photos and videos of them hanging out together over the years.
Grizzley later revealed in an interview with Bootleg Kev that he was with PnB Rock at his engagement party the day before he was murdered.
“Man, that was fucked up, bro. That was hard,” he said. “I feel like I lost a genuine friend in this shit, and genuine friends in this business is hard to come by, so that was tough.”
These rappers let hood ass idiots into their home then wonder why they got robbed. LOL
And Hip Hop websites profit off of all of it. “Please do more stupid shit so we can cover it and pay our bills”.
Probably one of the worst purchases he or any rapper can make. Purchasing something that people often get into fights over and get killed over. You are warning people about not trying to take it (which is almost daring them to). Why do you want or welcome this kind of smoke/drama into your life. At this point in life you should be doing the exact opposite, looking for peace and calm in your life.
….waiting for the flood of comments saying STFU.
I totally agree, bro. That’s just daring and taunting them, like saying, “Come get it.” There’s always a thug out there trying to prove something.
That’s big facts 💯💯💯
💯💯💯💯
these guys feed off negativity. if you respect a guy like this and leave him with his foolish chain he’s on the mic pointing a finger at you in the crowd saying you too bitch to try to take his fat gold chain. so dude gone end up pnb rocked sooner rather than later. best thing to do is be positive about good fortunes and leave it at that
Tee is one dumb sucker for that!
These niggas just don’t learn running yo mouth like you a tough guy stop it you go Make them boys come for yo dumb ass
These dude just don’t learn running yo mouth like you a tough guy stop it you go Make them boys come for yo dumb ass
Y’all not understanding! Go to where he’s from and see how he literally runs the town, its really not fictional… Know who you talking about before you run your mouths… Now dont get me wrong, why bring that negative energy your way, I get it, but that boy the truth on the streets!
Biggest clown fake tough guy putting himself on these dudes with nothing to lose radar
hes fake? the dude who did like 10 for robberies is fake. please enlighten me on “the real”
Always someone to say something stupid because they don’t have it. If y’all was rich you would buy it too. So stop judging and live your life.
Here’s an idea, why don’t rappers stop flaunting expensive jewellery in poor people’s faces and instead reject the values of a hyper capitalist society that keeps their communities poverty-stricken? Just a thought…
Remember there are some thugs out there that kill someone for their possessions even if they just take it or even if it’s given to them. They just shoot those R.I.P. bullets for no reason at all. They simply don’t care.
So true. Just think of PNB Rock’s situation. His jewelry just got snatched. I’m sure Rock was not even aggressive because he saw that dude was armed.
He should’ve stuck to his fictional storytelling music videos. All of a sudden dude’s acting tough.
Never flex your money and ice in front of a thug that have nothing to lose. These wolves are hungry out there.
Confirmed….someone’s gonna snatch chain. No one cares bout that PSA.
He can’t stop a bullet. Don’t bait these people because that can get you killed. Jealousy is strong in the hood some will kill for very little reason. Look at all the rappers that have been killed. Often over very little because some brothers are emotional.
I agree, if someone does want it , that just lets them know to go ahead and kill you for it. I not only think it’s lame to post a threat but the chain is ugly as hell. Plus tough don’t talk, I’m not gonna warn you not to break into my house ! Only a fool will find out…
Should of had the same energy when his auntie passed away
