Overview
- Drake shared an Instagram photo earlier this week featuring what appeared to be a 1996 Death Row Records pendant during his European tour, captioned from Copenhagen.
- From prison, Suge Knight said the item is not 2Pac’s chain and reiterated that he alone distributed genuine Death Row pieces, recalling that 2Pac wore Knight’s own diamond-covered chain in 1995.
- Wack 100 echoed the claim in a conversation with DJ Akademiks, pointing to visual discrepancies he says distinguish Drake’s piece from known originals.
- A close-up image reported in coverage shows an engraving that reads “All eyez on YOU 1996,” which Knight contrasted with his assertion that authentic pieces had nothing written on the back.
- No auction house record, jeweler verification, or provenance documentation has been presented publicly, even as Knight suggested Drake confront the seller over the chain.
