When you’re Drake, you mark your return to Australia and New Zealand after a six-year hiatus with a dazzling display of bling. While fans Down Under gear up for an unforgettable musical experience, the Canadian rapper is commemorating with an equally unforgettable dose of diamonds. His Anita Max Wynn tour promises to be a spectacle, thanks to a new custom chain by celebrity jeweler Jason of Beverly Hills.
The star of this extravagant jewelry piece is Drake’s cartoon alter ego, Anita Max Wynn, brought to life in nearly 3 kilograms of gold adorned with over 250 carats of flawless, multicolored diamonds. According to Hypebeast, “Having created several iconic Owl pieces for Drake, I was thrilled to design a pendant of his alter ego,” said Jason of Beverly Hills. The pendant is more than just a glittering accessory, it features all the tour dates on its back and a hidden compartment revealing the Toronto skyline, a nod to Drake’s roots.
Flipping the pendant reveals a map of Australia and New Zealand, highlighting the cities and stadiums on the Anita Max Wynn tour. A secret compartment opens to unveil Toronto’s iconic skyline, showcasing landmarks like the CN Tower and Rogers Centre, adding a personal touch to the piece.
Drake is no stranger to lavish jewels. He famously spent over $1 million on Tupac Shakur’s gold-and-ruby crown ring, which was once heralded as one of the most valuable hip-hop artifacts ever auctioned. He also owns a $77,000 ring from Alex Moss New York to celebrate his son Adonis.While these rings are truly breathtaking, the internet was divided over his latest vibrant purchase. One social media user commented, “That’s so weird,” while another stated, “It is tacky,” and one joked, “I thought this was for one of the rap girlies. Omg.”
While not everyone may appreciate his chains, there is no doubt that they all love his music. Drake’s Anita Max Wynn Tour kicks off on February 9, with stops in Melbourne, Sydney, and Brisbane, culminating in two of the final shows in Auckland on February 28 and March 1.
