![]() Grammy-winning rapper Kanye West reportedly wore over $300,000 in jewelry for his BET Awards 10 performance last weekend. According to reports, the rapper was styled in multiple symbolic gold pieces. Jacob & Co. created a custom-made link chain and charm depicting Egyptian god Horus, as well as a four-finger pyramid ring, for Mr. West's comeback performance. Both are made of 24k yellow gold. Kanye's monstrous chain and ring came with a larger-than-life price tag. Both items retail for a whopping $300,000. (Rap-Up) On the rapper's blog, he also posted up details regarding his Horus chain and pyramid ring. Horus is one of the oldest and most significant deities in the Ancient Egyptian religion, who was worshipped from at least the late Predynastic period through to Greco-Roman times. Horus served many functions in the Egyptian pantheon, most notably being the god of the Sky, god of War and god of Protection. (Kanye West's Blog) At the show, Yeezy performed his current hit, "Power." ![]() Thoughts??? |

It means nothing. Symbolism is taken way too seriously on here.
