Roddy Ricch Accuses YouTuber of Extortion Over Recovered Grammy

The rapper claims a YouTuber demanded $50,000 and a luxury watch to return his Grammy, while the YouTuber denies the allegations.

  • Roddy Ricch's Grammy, awarded in 2020 for his feature on Nipsey Hussle's 'Racks in the Middle,' was discovered in an abandoned storage unit purchased by YouTuber Prieto Hunter for $280.
  • Ricch explained that the Grammy ended up in storage due to his assistant's near-fatal accident, which led to the mishandling of the unit.
  • The rapper alleged during an Instagram Live that Hunter demanded $50,000 and an Audemars Piguet watch for the return of the trophy, though Hunter denies these claims.
  • Hunter stated he only wanted to film the Grammy's return or receive acknowledgment from Ricch but described the situation as a 'nightmare' involving threats to his family.
  • The Grammy has since been returned to Ricch's team at a police station, but conflicting accounts from both parties continue to fuel public debate over the incident.
