Lil Jon has made his way into the Guinness World Record thanks to his “Crunk Ain’t Dead” chain, which is the newly crowned “largest diamond pendant” in the world. The King of Crunk’s chain is appraised at $500,000 and has a total of 73 diamond carats. The piece was created by jeweler Jason of Beverly Hills and is 3,756 genuine round-cut white diamonds set in 18-karat yellow and white gold. The chain is 7.5 inches tall and weights 5.11 pounds. “I’m glad the Guinness World Records folks acknowledged me and my Crunk Ain’t Dead piece,” Jon says. I spent a load of money on that chain. I had no idea I would break a record and be recognized for it. It’s an honor to be included on that list. Let’s just see how many rappers try to outdo my pendant and break my record. They don’t call me the King of Crunk for nothing!”

My Effin' Opinion says:
a “half-a-mil” chain … great. You can’t give ghetto niggaz money cuz they go out and spend on this shit.
I’ll tell you what though, he better NEVER and I mean NEVER wear that shit in public or to the club cuz that’s the easiest $500,000 a muthafucka could ever jack.

My Effin' Opinion says:
Flav ..
Ghetto niggaz of a feather flock together (or some bullshit like that) so I figure the same cats that’s gonna “big him up” for this are pro’lly gettin’ ready to “set him up” sooner or later so if I were him, I’d leave it at home.
and truth be told if I ever had crazy money like this, I would buy no 500K chain, but i’d pro’lly spend 500K on some other bullshit that I liked.
I ain’t mad at him. I do feel it a lil’ excessive tho’, but it’s his $$ and he can whatever he wants, shit, if Charles Barkely gambles (and loses) 10 mil, i guess 500K ain’t shit for an asset.

Supreme hush that Nas shit, cause he wasn’t “quick to back down” from a Lil Jon beat for the Bravehearts. Plus for someone with a righteous name, calling people monkeys is not the business. M.E.O. I heard somewhere they slinging $1000 pizzas with caviar on them. Other races are frivolous as well and some “ghetto” folk get thier own, we dont all scheme against each other.

Jason Murk says:
I don’t know if crunk is dead, but the “bling” era is. A half a million dollar chain sounds ridiculous, and only feeds into the stereotype that wasting money on frivolous shit is a priority for black people in america.
If his pockets were burning that bad and he just HAD to waste that half a mil on a chain, he should have made it say some real shit like “Black Intelligence Is Not An Oxymoron.”

and 4 all the dumb asses on here that don’t know his necklace is an asset; much like yo favorite white person buying a 2 mil painting or yo momma buying a house.
dummies he aint losing money.
diamonds don’t depreciate and gold very rarely temporarly depreciate!
there are many wealthy people with jewels worth more; and they are all assets.

Personally I think the money could have been used in a better way but,a artist has to promote himself to remain relevant in the game. The fact that we’re talking about this proves the man is good at what he does. It’s a prop. gaudy but smart.
