Yesterday 19,9,2019 court session marked the end of 6ix9ine testimony. During direct examination by prosecutors, the rapper detailed aspects of his cooperation agreement with the federal government, which requires him to tell the truth and testify in court if asked, Here is a ride to the whole case Starting from his arrest, his guily denial, taking a plea deal, Snitching/name dropping, and final judgement and expectation.

THE ARREST
https://shegbo.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/6ix9ine-arrest-300x200.jpg

6ix9ine real name Daniel Hernandez was apprehended alongside five other men (Shotti, Jamel “Mel Murda” Jones, Fugan “Fu Banga” Lovick, Jensel “Ish” Butler, and Faheem “Crippy” Walter.) on November 18, 2018, who are believed to be member of the Nine Trey Gangsta Bloods, The men are being indicted on charges related to racketeering, drug distribution, weapon possession, and conspiracy to commit murder.

Following a five-year joint investigation by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), the New York Police Department (NYPD), and the Bureau of Alcohol Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) On November 22, 2018, a seventh man, Roland “Ro Murda” Martin, was arrested and charged with crimes related to the case.

6ix9ine was denied bail, and initially pleaded not guilty to all charges. He later changed his plea to guilty after agreeing to a deal with law enforcement on February 1, 2019. Which 6ix9ine would have to admit his guilt and testify against his co-defendants, in exchange for no prosecution or jail time if he fully cooperates and commits no further crimes, 6ix9ine would avoid a minimum sentence of 47 years in prison, making the arrest to cause his highly anticipated debut album Dummy Boy to be delayed indefinitely a day before its scheduled release. After an Online leak, Dummy Boy was released on November 27, 2018, and managed to reach number 2 on the Billboard 200 within only three days of charting.

Having previously arrested In October 2018, and sentenced to four years’ probation and 1,000 hours of community service after pleading guilty in 2015 to taking part in making and disseminating a video that showed a 13-year-old girl giving MouthAction and making sexual contact with other individuals.

To celebrate receiving probation instead of a jail sentence, 6ix9ine went to go have dinner with a music executive in New York City. His entourage was not allowed in by security, and this led to a fight that ended with one person being shot. Two members of 6ix9ine’s entourage were charged with gang assault. 6ix9ine’s manager Shotti later turned himself in on November 7, 2018, in relation to the fight and was also charged with gang assault

On January 22, 2019, three other members of the Nine Trey Gangsters were charged as part of the investigation: Kintea “Kooda B” McKenzie, Denard “Drama” Butler, and Anthony “Harv” Ellison. Kooda B was indicted for attempting to shoot American rapper Chief Keef in June 2018. 6ix9ine admitted that after becoming embroiled in an online feud with Chief Keef, he offered $20,000 to Kooda B to carry out the shooting. Kooda B carried out the attack outside. After the shooting, Kooda B allegedly met with 6ix9ine and Shotti, settling for a payment of $10,000 for the attack.

THE PLEA DEAL AND NAME DROPPING
Now The news about his plea deal with the Feds made the internet go Riot on the deal he took by testifying against his co-offenders that led to his ex manager Kifano “Shotti” Jordan being sentenced to 15 years.

after pleading guilty to one count of firearm possession during a crime and one count of firearm discharge during a crime, as the Southern District of New York, Other list of jaw dropping names mentioned were Cardi B, Trippie Redd and Jim Jones with 6ix9ine saying in court that Cardi B is a member of the Bloods and that he never for once tried to mimic Cardi’s rise to fame.

Following news of 6ix9ine’s testimony, Atlantic Records denied to Billboard that Cardi B is a member of Nine Trey. Cardi later tweeted and deleted a message clarifying that she was associated with the Brims, not Nine Trey.

Earlier this year, Cardi told GQ’s Caity Weaver, “When I was 16 years old, I used to hang out with a lot of… Bloods. I used to pop off with my homies. And they’d say, ‘Yo, you really get it poppin’. You should come home. You should turn Blood.’ And I did. Yes, I did. And something that—it’s not like, oh, you leave. You don’t leave.”

While Jim Jones name was dropped On Thursday 19 2019, with 6ix9ine telling the packed courtroom that he was not the only well-known rapper associated with Nine Trey. On the stand, 6ix9ine was asked by prosecutors to identify the voices on a recording of a phone conversation, He said one of them belonged to Jim Jones, whom he called a “retired rapper” and said was a member of the gang.

He also identified Trippie real name Michael Lamar White IV as a member of the Five Nine Brims set of the Bloods. making 6ix9ine’s decision to cooperate earning him the designation of “snitch” from peers including Snoop Dogg, who posted 6ix9ine’s photo along with a rat emoji on Instagram.

Facing a maximum sentence of life in prison and a mandatory minimum sentence of 47 years without the cooperation agreement, it is possible that 6ix9ine will be sentenced to time served if he meets the terms of the agreement. He stated that if that happens, he hopes to be out of prison by the beginning of 2020. Prosecutors were keen to point out that no promises have been made and that the outcomes of cases he testifies in will not have an impact on his ultimate sentencing, And final sentence to be heard very soon.

Kanye Omari West known as KANYE WEST is one of the most celebrated artists of the past decade, selling more than 32 million albums and 100 million digital downloads worldwide. He’s also won a total of 21 Grammy awards and been named by Forbes Magazine as one of the 100 most influential people in the world.

Kanye West has made headlines for so many different reasons in the past few years. From his marriage to Kim Kardashian to his two adorable kids, North and Saint, Taylor swift diss, and to his Yeezys deal with first Nike then Adidas, the rapper is never out of the news for too long.

His Yeezy deal with Nike for example came with the Red October shoes selling out in a flash, despite later having issues with Nike that resulted to both parties going separate ways with Kanye saying in his FACTS(Charlie heat version) from the TLOP(The life of Pablo) album that Nike were treating him like a slave without given him full control of his ideas for his Yeezys, and were busy giving him peanuts deals and giving the likes of Lebron James life time deals worth billions of dollars so he won’t run away from them.
https://shegbo.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/red-octobers-300x200.jpg

Then came the Adidas Yeezy deal, with the Yeezy750 which turnout quite different from the idea back then with Nike, talking about in design and style was something else.
https://shegbo.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/http___hypebeast.com_image_2015_11_yeezy-season-look-bak-kanye-west-footwear-feats-111-300x200.jpg

Kanye is a man who can seemingly do no wrong – even the people who openly call him overhyped have probably secretly thought about copping a pair of Yeezy Boosts, or wear out their headphones with ‘Jesus Walks’ on the down-low. This is saying everything the dude touches turns to gold.

The story behind all this success started with his near death experience way back 2002, when Kanye was still just an up-and-coming artist, he made headlines for a truly terrifying reason: a near-fatal car accident.
https://shegbo.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/kanye-est-300x154.jpg

Just two weeks after signing a deal with Roc-a-Fella Records, Kanye drove home after working late at a California recording studio on Oct. 23, 2002. He fell asleep at the wheel and crashed his car into an oncoming vehicle. The driver of the other car broke both of his legs, while Kanye shattered his jaw which lead to his mouth wired shut.

Two weeks after the accident, he wrote his hit single “Through the Wire,” and recorded it with his mouth still wired shut, the rest they said is history. This led to most fans wondering if actually his lack of smile was caused by the accident, his epic response was quoted
https://shegbo.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/kanye-not-smile-300x200.jpg

“Back when I was working on Yeezus,” he tells a reporter at High Snobiety, “I saw this book from the 1800s and it was velvet-covered with brass and everything. I looked at all these people’s photos, and they look so real, and their outfits were incredible, and they weren’t smiling. People, you know, the paparazzi, always come up to me: ‘Why you not smiling?’ And I think, not smiling makes me smile. When you see paintings in an old castle, people are not smiling because it just wouldn’t look as cool.”

although he was busted in couple of shots smiling to the public but never to a paparazzi
https://shegbo.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/kanye-smile-300x218.jpg
he was also caught smiling in a NBA game between the Cleveland Cavaliers and the Chicago Bulls then switched back instantly.
https://shegbo.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/Kanye-MAIN-300x158.jpg

Kanye spoke about just how crucial this recovery period was for his career, telling Interview magazine in 2014, “The accident gave me the opportunity to do what I really wanted to do. During that recovery period, I just spent all my time honing my craft and making The College Dropout.”

After an epic performance in Atlanta, Georgia on Sunday, September 15 for a pop-up Sunday Service at New Birth Church with over 600 attendees who came to witness the Sunday Service that Kanye West brought to the presence of other artist like 2Chainz, T.I, Odell Beckham, Chris Tucker.

He made the announcement on his twitter page with the caption

“Kanye has now officially mentioned #JesusIsKing!!

“It’s out September 27th…”

Officially the news of the album first came from Kanye’s wife, Kim Kardashian-West, who dropped a tracklist and the date online. The release seems to be the first of a new stream of G.O.O.D. Music releases.

https://shegbo.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/kim-j-is-king-tracklist-271x300.jpg

A week after Kim’s tweet, Kanye posted the same shot of the tracklist on kanyewest.com, essentially confirming both the tracklist and the release date. Interestingly Kanye has already played one song from the new album, “Water.” He debuted the gospel-inspired track during his Sunday Service at Coachella.

The rest of the tracklist is believed to have heavy biblical undertones especially “Garden,” “Selah,” God Is,” “Baptized,” “Sunday,” and “Sweet Jesus.”

Couple of years ago AKON was releasing hit after hit, rising all over the R&B and hip hop charts. Then suddenly he went silent and off the RADAR, Many did wonder what actually happen to him and the question on everyone’s lips is where is he now and what is he currently doing.

AKON whose real name is Aliaune Damala Bouga Time Bongo Puru Nacka Lu Lu Lu Badara Akon Thiam born on April 16th, 1973,grew up in the West African country Senegal which he did mention in couple of his songs where he personally describes as his hometown.

While Akon was a young boy, he learned to play five instruments, including the guitar, the drums, and the djembe, a rope tuned skin covered goblet drum that one plays with their bare hands. This actually helped him discovered his love of music, not quite long after he turned seven turned he moved with his family to Union City, New Jersey in which Growing up he had difficulties getting along with other children.

Sadly Akon spent three years in jail due to being framed, though some sources said he was never in jail or sort but according to him while locked away from the outside world, he began to recognize his musical abilities and he developed an appreciation for his musical background.

His first solo album TROUBLE was released in 2004 with singles “Locked Up” and “Lonely”, “Ghetto” and “Pot of Gold”. He blew to stardom when Ghetto became a radio hit after DJ Green Lantern remixed it to include verses from legends Tupac and The Notorious B.I.G.

This success led him to become a proud owner & founder of several record labels that released albums and singles to critical acclaim, and also his most known record label KONVICT MUSIC under Interscope Records in which he released his second album Kovicted, and it debuted at number two on the Billboard 200, selling nearly 300,000 copies in its first week.

After six weeks, the album sold more than one million records in the United States. A week later, the album was certified platinum, and Akon’s climb to the top had begun. It stayed in the top twenty of the Billboard 200 for twenty eight consecutive weeks and peaked at number two on four occasions. On November 20th, 2007, the album was certified three times platinum by the RIAA, with over three million copies sold in the United States alone.

Then came his third album FREEDOM, which was just as successful, critically and commercially as his previous works been nominated for multiple Grammy Awards, throughout his career and has accomplished the feat of being the first solo artist to hold both the number one and number two spot on the Billboard Hot 100 charts, and he’s done that twice. He has also had four songs go three times platinum, three songs certified as two times platinum, and over ten songs certified at one times platinum.

He also have released songs recorded in other languages, including Tamil, Hindi, and Spanish. He even ranked number six on Billboard’s list of the Top Digital Songs Artists of the Decade. After the release of FREEDOM, he hasn’t been as active in the music world like he used to.

In His recent interview with IGN AND INQUISITR he was asked on what he has being up to lately and what his fans should expect from him, and his reply was: He recently unveiled a new solar campaign for Africa, in which he uses his wealth to bring “electricity to African villages by a clean and affordable solar energy solution.” The project is titled “Akon Lighting Africa”.

https://shegbo.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/Akon_Lighting_Africa.png

He actually started up to train Africans the skills needed to use solar power. Located in Bamako, Mali, the solar academy will train African engineers and entrepreneurs with the necessary skills to produce and maintain solar-powered electricity systems and micro grids. Here, experts will be available to provide assistance with training and equipment and programs will be supplied by angel investors, The projects provided electricity in 14 African countries as of 2015 and employed over 5000 people, and Akon said they have reached 1 million households in African nations with their projects.

https://shegbo.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/Solar-Akon-300x200.jpg

When further asked by INQUISITR about the project he said the following about the project, and being a humanitarian.

“Well, when it comes to ‘humanitarian’, I think even outside of being an artist anyone with success should always put themselves in a position to help others.

Ultimately, only a few are chosen to be in a certain status or to be famous, or to even be influential in life. So, you’ve got to understand that those few people that are that position are touched by God. You’re chosen to be in that position. You should always honor that responsibility. You know, most people don’t choose to not do anything. You always have a choice.

https://shegbo.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/akon-solar.jpg

“Me, personally, the things that I’m doing may be considered to be ‘humanitarian’, but they’re actually for-profit. A lot of my businesses are for-profit. I just choose to get into businesses that are going to help people. So, naturally, it’s a position where if I’m going to make money I’m going to make money helping people. That’s just my personal view of how I like to get into business. If I’m always offering opportunity, or someone comes to me with a proposal, the first thing I ask is, ‘Okay, how does it help the community?’ Or ‘where does it benefit in a position where others will be touched by it?’ If they can’t answer that question, then I’m not interested.”

TMZ broke the story …before the crash Kevin was at his home in Calabasas with his wife, Eniko, and their friends Jared Black and Rebecca Broxterman. his friend Jared Black was driving when Kevin was involved in the car accident last weekend that sent his 1970 Plymouth Barracuda when it hurtled off the road and landed flying into a ditch off a highway in Malibu Hills.

In which Kevin was in the passenger seat, but had to be pulled out through the window of the totaled vehicle, below is the car and it condition before and after the crash, its safe to say his recovery is a miracle.

DC Apparently have in the plan to usher in a new Batman next year, and for the first time in the character’s history, the person donning the cape and cowl will be a black man. According to Bleeding Cool’s Rich Johnston, The hot gossip coming out of comic book shows this weekend from a number of prominent sources, is that in the summer of 2020 leading into 2021, DC Comics is planning to bring us a black Batman. Not Bruce Wayne, but someone else donning the cowl and cape.

This new idea came in place after Marvel Comics has given fans a black/Latino Spider-Man with Miles Morales, popularized in the Into The Spider-Verse movie. Sam Wilson took on the role of Captain America, reflected in the Avengers: Endgame movie. And Nick Fury has been replaced in the Marvel Universe by his black son, Nick Fury, Jr, reflecting the casting of Samuel L Jackson in the Marvel movies. Johnston confirms that it will not be Duke Thomas, though he does hint that both Black Lightning and Batwing could be viable contenders. That is, should they opt against creating somebody new, which remains a strong possibility.

With this development set to launch in 2020, it gives plenty of time for the outrage to both rise and settle, as such changes are always likely to provoke a heated (disguised as passionate) response. It should be interesting to see a new take on the iconic hero, and we’ll be keeping an eye out for more developments as they surface.

SHOCKER!!! AS NICKI MINAJ ANNOUNCE HER RETIREMENT FROM MUSIC

According to The Sun and numerous other sources, a barefoot man who looks strikingly similar to Jobs enjoying a caffeinated beverage and wandering barefoot has convinced people that Steve Jobs is still alive. The lookalike did not seem to be wearing shoes, which may strike a chord with fans who know Jobs used to walk barefoot while brainstorming, tho the look alike was not wearing an Apple iwatch.
https://shegbo.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/jobss-300x268.jpg
Once shared on social-networking site Reddit, the snap attracted hundreds of comments, with some convinced it was the real Steve Jobs.

One wrote: “This guy looks too much like Steve Jobs to be so random.”

Another added: “Even something about the way he sits.”

One said: “Honestly, wouldn’t put it past him. His love for Egypt and that type of simple living.

This is not the first time conspiracy theorists have questioned whether Jobs may still be alive.

A selfie posted to Reddit five years ago sparked claims Jobs was hiding out in Rio de Janeiro.

But again, there was no evidence to show when the photo was actually taken.

Jobs co-founded Apple in a garage in 1976 and went on to change the entire tech industry with his stylish designs.

He battled pancreatic cancer in 2004 and had to have a liver transplant in 2007.

In his poignant resignation letter, which he penned three months before his death, Jobs said he felt he could no longer continue in the top job.

He wrote: “I have always said if there ever came a day when I could no longer meet my duties and expectations as Apple’s CEO, I would be the first to let you know.

“Unfortunately, that day has come.

“I believe Apple’s brightest and most innovative days are ahead of it.”

The Apple co-founder, who sparked a tech revolution, of course passed away in 2011 aged 56 after a long battle with cancer. Ever since Steve Jobs passed away eight years ago, some consumers claim that Apple has been on a slow-moving downward spiral.

According to the Fayetteville Observer   A Fayetteville bartender won a $3.2 million verdict Monday evening against her ex-husband and his new girlfriend in what appears to be North Carolina’s first revenge porn lawsuit to reach a jury verdict. Elizabeth Clark’s case said that she and Adam Clark, who is an Army major stationed on Fort Bragg, had been married since April 2010. They had two children together. She alleged that he began an affair with Barrett, an Army lieutenant colonel, in 2016, when Adam Clark was temporarily working at Fort Belvoir, Virginia.

Elizabeth's lawyer, Michael Porter, stated in his closing arguments to the jury that Kim was recently divorced at the start of her affair with Adam and stole him away from his wife because she wanted to start a family. Elizabeth sued Adam Clark for" alienation-of-affection," when he left her for Kimberly Rae Barrett and sued both of them for posting nude images of her online.

The evidence included sexting between Adam Clark and Barrett prior, in which he sent a sexually explicit video of himself, Porter said.

Some of the other allegations in the case:

• Adam Clark was unhappy with the child support payments he owed Elizabeth Clark.

• He libeled his Elizabeth Clark by posting online that she had herpes and an eating disorder, which Elizabeth Clark said are lies.

• He posted online a topless photo of Elizabeth Clark on Facebook and to the Kik dating and sexual hookup app that she had sent him when they still had a sexual relationship. And he also posted an unflattering photo on Facebook of her in undergarments that she had made when she was trying to lose weight.

• He had stalked her.

Barrett and Adam Clark’s lawyers argued that there was little evidence that Elizabeth Clark had been harmed by the pictures and comments. They also said there was a lack of direct evidence that the topless photo was shared to Kik. There was evidence a version of it with her naked breast partly covered with a star was shared to Facebook.

After an hour of deliberation after a five-day trial, the court sided with Elizabeth and awarded her a $1 million judgment. Kim was then ordered to pay Elizabeth $1.2 million while Adam was ordered to pay his ex-wife $1 million.

Elizabeth can be seen below celebrating with her team of lawyers after her win.
https://shegbo.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/kim-300x183.jpg

further more Elizabeth Clark said Monday evening that she nearly fainted as the jury said it had sided with her and the monetary awards were announced.

The first figure announced was $1 million.

“I was kind of confused at first,” she said.

She looked at one of her lawyers, José Coker. He was calm, she said. So she looked to her left at Adam Clark and Barrett at the defense table just a few yards away.

“And Kim was bawling or starting to bawl,” Elizabeth Clark said. “It hit me.”

“I did believe I was going to win because I knew what I was telling was the truth,” Elizabeth added.. “And I know my story, and I knew what I lived through every single day and still to this day, and what I’m going to continue to live through.”

MTV’s once-mighty VMAs have fallen in viewership, albeit a shorter plummet than previous years. According to The Hollywood Reporter, the most recent edition drew in a total of 1.93 million viewers, a drop from last year’s then-record low of 2.25 million.
That’s not to say that MTV has faltered, as the VMAs still retain a hefty online presence. In fact, mentions and shares continue to skyrocket by 85 percent, proof that the historic channel is indeed keeping up with the youth movement. Though the televised airing may be falling on disinterested eyes, perhaps that’s simply an inescapable conundrum. After all, is their target demographic really expected to sit through an entire, multi-hour telecast? Especially when the greatest hits and memorable moments are set to pop up the following day.
In truth, the decline is but another piece of evidence that the world is moving on, though some traditions will cling to life regardless. As long as the celebrities continue to attend, and the antics are given room to flourish people will continue to tune in. Perhaps the number will dwindle, but such is life – who knows what the future holds for the VMAs? Might we one day bear witness to an online-only variant?

Birmingham, U.K. rapper MIST was reportedly taken to the hospital earlier today after getting shot in Portugal, the Independent reports. The rapper was believed to be targeted during an armed robbery. The rapper was staying in Quint do Lago villa when he was robbed and shot. Phones, jewelry, and his passport were stolen during the incident.

https://shegbo.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/uk-rapper.jpg
The 27-year-old rapper was brought to the hospital by two of his friends. The rapper was shot in the leg on Tuesday night around 10 p.m. local. According to police, there were two or three robbers with heavy Irish accents. Police later went back to the villa to make sure there weren’t any more suspects there.

At this point, his friends said that he’s recovering from the injury but there haven’t been any new updates regarding his condition. There haven’t been any arrests made either.

On 3/08/2019 Rapper jay z joined the Billionaire club with the news coming as a inspiration to other artist.

With the above making him the FIRST BILLIONAIRE RAPPER , tho the likes of DR DRE and DIDDY having more than $800 Million respectively and are believed to reach the billionaire mark before 2022. Diddy who is currently sitting in second according to Forbes’ list with an estimated net worth of $820 million

bellow is a full explanation of how Jay-Z made it to the top.

Jay-Z Worth?

To calculate his net worth, we looked at the artist’s stakes in companies like Armand de Brignac champagne, applying our customary discount to private firms. (He owns 100% of Armand de Brignac and has partial ownership of the other companies.) Then added up his income, subtracting a healthy amount to account for a superstar lifestyle. We checked our numbers with a roster of outside experts to ensure these estimates were fair and conservative. Turns out, Jay-Z really is a business, man.

Armand de Brignac
$310 million

https://shegbo.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/armand.jpg

Jay-Z has used his music to shill the $300 gold bottles of the “Ace of Spades” champagne since launching the brand with the 2006 video “show me what you got.” More recently, his verse on Meek Mill’s “whats free” put a half-billion-dollar value on the wine, which seems like a bit too bubbly a number.

Cash & investments
$220 million
https://shegbo.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/uber-300x169.jpg

A vast investing portfolio includes a stake in Uber worth an estimated $70 million. He reportedly purchased his piece for $2 million back in 2013cand then wired founder Travis Kalanick another $5 million in an attempt to increase his holdings, but was rebuffed.

D’Ussé
$100 million
https://shegbo.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/D%E2%80%99Uss%C3%A9-214x300.png

Jay-Z’s cognac, a joint venture with beverage giant Bacardi, moves almost 200,000 cases and has grown nearly 80% annually. “Jay-Z resonates with consumers who are attracted to the ultra-premium lifestyle,” says Eric Schmidt, Beverage Marketing Corp.’s Director of Alcohol Research.

Tidal
$100 million
https://shegbo.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/tidal-logojpg-300x300.jpg

In 2015, Jay-Z submitted a bid to purchase the Scandinavian streaming service’s parent company for just shy of $60 million. He relaunched Tidal later that year with a roster of celebrity investors including his wife, Beyoncé, and other music luminaries, from Kanye West to Calvin Harris.

Roc Nation
$75 million
https://shegbo.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/roc2-300x267.jpg

This wide-ranging entertainment company started over a decade ago as part of a joint venture with concert giant Live Nation. Roc Nation represents some of the top stars in the entertainment through its sports agency (Kevin Durant, Todd Gurley) as well as its record label and artist-management arms (Rihanna, J. Cole).

Music catalog
$75 million
https://shegbo.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/cat.jpg

Before the beginning of his stint as Def Jam’s chief in 2004, Jay-Z negotiated the eventual return of his master recordings from the aforementioned label that helped launch his career; in a separate deal with EMI, he clawed back his publishing rights. Wise move: his hits now clock close to 1 billion streams annually.

Art collection
$70 million
https://shegbo.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/art-300x293.jpg

In the song “Picasso Baby” Jay-Z boasted about a “Basquiat in my kitchen corner.” He probably wasn’t kidding. For over a decade, he’s been scooping up masterpieces like Basquiat’s “Mecca,” purchased in 2013 for a reported $4.5 million. “He’s rapped about it all in detail,” says Fab 5 Freddy, a contemporary and friend of the late painter. “Jay-Z helped educate millions of hip-hop fans mentioning Jean-Michel.”

Real estate
$50 million
https://shegbo.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/est-300x194.jpg

After welcoming twins in 2017, Jay-Z and Beyoncé bought a pair of homes to match: a $26 million East Hampton mansion and a $88 million Bel Air estate. Jay-Z also owns a Tribeca penthouse, snagged for $6.85 million in 2004

Kanye West and Adidas may be gearing up to release the Adidas Yeezy Boost 350 V3 in the very near future but there are still a handful of Yeezy Boost 350 V2s in the works. Among them, the “Citrin” and “Clouds” iterations – both of which are scheduled to launch in September.
Additionally, two unique colorways dubbed “Yecheil” and “Yeehu” are rumored to arrive before the end of the year. Images of the kicks in question have not yet been revealed but the mockups that have surfaced suggest the sneakers will come equipped with multi-colored knit uppers.
The “Yecheil” Yeezy Boost 350 V2 looks to feature a combination of grey, pastel purple and yellow, while the [b]“Yeehu” [/b]joint comes through with a black and white knit accompanied by hits of red and blue. In others words, these are looking like two of the wildest Yeezy Boost 350 V2s to date.

Take a look at the [b]“Yecheil” and “Yeehu” [/b]pictures that was recently posted on the yeezy seasons page on instagram
