Lil Jon's Necklace Sets Bling Record

Rapper Lil Jon has quite a handful with the necklace shown here. The Guinness Book of World Records has officially certified it as the largest diamond pendant ever. The "Crunk Aint Dead" pendant is 7.5 inches tall, six inches wide and weighs almost 12 pounds. This is some bitty bling, 73 carats of diamonds on the necklace but 3,756 round-cut white diamonds total set in 18K yellow and white gold. It is valued at around $500,000. I'd say something about how tacky it is but he seems so proud of it.

Obviously he is making a fool of himself; but the irony is, those baubles represent free enterprise in a capitalistic society -- a society, arguably better than any other country. Perhaps he didn't take status quo courses in an Ivy League school, but he found a way. The wealthy hierarchy -- the few who run this country would seem to be equally a suitable target of the have nots. People who own large conglomerates, making billions; and pay minimun wages seemed to have escaped your crosshairs.

Live and let live people. No, I don't agree with what some people with to much money do with it. But...it's theirs to spend however they see fit, however ignorant we may think it is. That's one of the major problems with this country...everyone seems to think they know what's best for everyone else. How about you mind your damn business and leave everyone the hell alone. And don't feel like your opinion should be some kind of law or right. Opinions are like assholes...everyone has one and they all stink.
Wake up America, while it's still sort of free!!!
Jazzis Apr 2nd 2007 11:41PM
wow..what an asshole..
Dave Apr 2nd 2007 11:49PM
Whoa there 213....less is more...;).
Jazzis Apr 3rd 2007 1:00AM
She can't help it... like so many others...she's filled with hate.
Dave Apr 3rd 2007 12:08AM
And 210...I'm not in anyway "defending" this guy for his spending habits. What I am defending is the right of each and everyone of us to do whatever we please with the money we earn. It's none of your business or anyone else's...regardless of how reckless or irresponsible anyone else thinks it may be. That happens to be one of the few "rights" we have left...and it's your type of thinking that is eating away at that one. Sure that money could be spent on better things....but HE chose not to do that. If you make a shit load of money then knock yourself out. I continuously see these "Super Churches" springing up around the country. Spending millions of dollars on these places...these people call themselves "Christians"? How many starving children would that money feed??? Those who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones.

Ugliest thing I've ever seen; oh! I meant the Necklace...Well....maybe him too!!!!!!
Mimi Apr 3rd 2007 12:30AM
#216...Your the one filled with hate...Not I...I can't help it that I know how to type more than 65 words per min...unlike you siting there pecking one letter every two minutes...sorry...I went to college.
Jazzis Apr 3rd 2007 1:02AM
Ahhh...so it's my typing skill that threatens you.
Jazzis Apr 3rd 2007 1:10AM
Went to college but didn't learn..what a shame... I feel sorry for you. If your typing speed is all you have of college...too bad. I don't agree with you...mmm...I guess that means I am not college educated? Ypu have your opinion, I have mine, to assume I am uneducated only shows your LACK of education. Especially when you think I'm a slow typer....yea, that's a good measure of IQ...
Jazzis Apr 3rd 2007 1:16AM
"YOU JEALOUS ASS WHITE PEOPLE"...where did you go to college? and this is the kind of crap you learned?
Jazzis Apr 3rd 2007 1:19AM
Obviously part of the problem, not part of the solution...think about it. You perpetrate the hate, but it's justified in your mind I'm sure...
Jazzis Apr 3rd 2007 9:08AM
I don't agree with *7...far from it. But people like you chose to feed into his delusions, justifying his teaching his kids this crap. But I think you too are guilty of the same thinking, and I prey you aren't teaching your narrow views to your children...if so, this shit will NEVER end...

Crazy rich Russian video! Very quirky! Rap meets opera. Is that bling bling that the devil's minions are wearing? This video is so artistic that it looks like it cost millions!

What a waste, and you and other rappers wonder why Oprah won't have you on her show! Take a page from her notebook and feed the hungry somewhere, start in your old neighborhood, I am sure thre are some poor people getting poorer buying your crappy rap songs. You glorify the devil quite naturally. Get a brain butt munch and put it to good use, I cannot believe you have the nerve to wave that piece of crap around and be proud about it, you should be ashamed.
daboy Apr 3rd 2007 10:28AM
This is what happends when someone has "0" class and has never had any money. They buy the biggest most expenses piece just cuz, what a F*cking idiot. Lil john straight looks like a monkey. I bet he's got the shittest diamonds you could find in his chain. Like a coon knows about diamonds, now if we are talkin CZ's thats another case. LIL JONH, YOU LOOK LIKE A MONKEY WITH DIAMONDS IN YOUR MOUTH. ITS PATHETIC HOW DUMB YOU ARE. YOU GET SO FUCKED UP THAT WHENEVER YOUR ON TV ALL YOU CAN SAY IS "WHAT" "YEAH", STEP YOUR TOLORENCE BITCH. "WHAT"
tiffany Apr 3rd 2007 2:17PM
I agree with you # 228 I hate rap it is a disgrace to black community and I do nt give damn if anyone thinks i should nt say this. It is true it is not his job or the goverment to help people out of poverty.
CHERI Apr 7th 2007 10:00AM
Well, You know...He really isn't givin a you know what about how people feel...Lil John is bless..So, What...You got people like Shaq buying A BENTLY'S for someone birthday. Who cares who is buying what and who is doing who....DRAMA...Lets talk about our kids? What the hell are we going to do about our future our kids....? You know my son is 16 done went through four murder in his life already. Friends of his. Our future is doom if we don't step up to the plate and do something about it..And it will take money...To do this..We need to help these families come up...I don't have the money like some people do. Am a single mom that just bought her first house. Got off the streets to set an example for my son. One day i will. And I will do good with it. not, Waste it...We can as people not poltics not entertainer as just people we can do this...

much of these comments are racist in my opinion. the brothas out here with these necklaces are small time we have but three black billionaires. look at Paul Allen CEO of Charter Communications and a founder of Microsoft. his yacht costs as much as that necklace to service every few years and the cost of the yacht itself is 700 times that necklace but because it's a boat you can consider it's main objective transportation where as a necklace's only objective is to show one's wealth. if you want to bitch about something bitch about stuff like that these dudes dont have and will never have the resources to be as wasteful and some of the super rich are.
Larry Ellison has a 200 million dollar yacht and a 200 million dollar home. that's just two of his "look what i can do" items. now the house may have the potential for application in value but the boat I'm sure doesnt and again it's 400 times the cost of Lil Johns no maintenance needed necklace. I'm sure this yacht also consumes what lil john paid for that necklace every few years in maintenance.
bottom line,
it's their money i dont care what they do with it. the only reason i posted is because i see many of you are way to influenced by media and look at brothas like lil john and heavily criticize him for this purchase but look right past the people who really make outlandish purchases because their vocations are prestiegous in your eyes.
