Hip-Hop’s global superstar Drake a.k.a. Champagne Papi has joined hands with Punjabi Hip-Hop icon Karan Aujla on Stake. The legendary ‘Started From the Bootom’ emcee has placed a million dollars in favour of Argentina’s win at the Qatar FIFA World Cup 2022. If Lionel Andrés Messi-led Argentina wins the finals against Hugo Lloris-led France, Drake is slated to make upwards of $2.7 million.
However, Drake isn’t unfamiliar with bringing big money to the table. Earlier this month, he purchased an 18 Karat Gold neckpiece.
Designed by New York-based jeweller Alex Moss, the 18 Karat white gold necklace is studded with at least 42 diamonds and looks more like a collectable than a piece of ice that rappers cop every once in a while. Notably, Drake can do it and has done it already. Perhaps, “I wear every single chain, even when I’m in the house” Drake rapped on ‘Started From the Bottom’ asserting the highlife status that he has.
Ordering the impossible. An expedition spanning 14 months. Every diamond hand-selected. Inspected to only suit perfection… New piece titled ‘Previous Engagements’ for all the times he thought about it but never did it,” a female narrator in an IG video by Alex Moss says. “42 engagement rings, 351.38 carats in diamonds. By Alex Moss New York & Drake.”
Reportedly, Drake’s neckpiece costs somewhere between $4 to $6 million and follows the worldwide success of his recent collaborative effort ‘Her Loss’ with 21 Savage.
