Christmas 2016 is officially in the books, and it was an eventful one on the hip-hop side. Troy Ave got shot twice while visiting family in Brooklyn. Run The Jewels duo Killer Mike and El-P surprised the masses by releasing their third album RTJ3. And hip-hop reacted to the death of famed 1980s singer George Michael.

The rest of the rap world celebrated the holiday like the majority of us. Some with a bit more flare and money to blow.

A few rappers made major splurges on la familia. Lil Yachty almost bought his mother every designer bag in the book. And even had to clap back at a hater who questioned the substance of his gift giving. “I bought my mom a house, car and paid off all her loans already,” he snapped back. “My money is also hers, so my savings is hers. I purchased these things simply because it was always her dream to have it. I ‘really got it like that.’ Stop being so bitter. You must not have a family.”

Speaking of family, XXL 2016 winter issue cover boy, Travis Scott purchased a brand new home for his. “Merry Christmas. Gave my family a present I been working on my whole life. A home. Very thankful. Watch insta story for they reaction,” La Flame wrote on Instagram.
