Macklemore Got a Massive, Blinged Out Chain That Took 8 Years to Make

Macklemore's latest piece of ice is a healthy stunt.

Is Macklemore trying to steal #Pear from Ricky Ross? The Seattle spitter just received an iced out pear pendant from Tresor Paris, which he claims "took 8 years to make, maybe." If it really is comprised of 233 individual emeralds, green stones, and white gold shards of glass then maybe it did, I don't really know much about jewelry production tbh. I do know that, 500-word satirical Instagram caption notwithstanding, this is probably the corniest piece of definitive Rapper Ice in the game, and it takes a brave man to display it so proudly. It gleams quite nicely, I'll give Mack that. But one must be an especially swagged out rapper to make fruit seem fresh, and Macklemore is most assuredly not Rozay.
