Tyga’s new chain is quite the head-turner.

Revered jeweler Ben Baller took to Instagram on Monday, and showed off the new piece, which reimagines famous scripture of the archangel St. Michael slaying the devil.

“Who just dropped $500,000 on a custom diamond Ben Baller chain?” Baller wrote, adding, “Tyga ... TYGAAAA????”

Baller also includes a rather scholarly breakdown of the chain's diamond for all the junkies out there. “I set pear shaped solitaire VVS clarity diamonds in the halo of St Michael," he writes. "I added baguettes to the feathers of his wings and even baguette diamonds on his sword. I even iced out the sides of his custom 1 of a kind Cuban link.” Also, according to Baller, “The devil being stepped on represents Satan aka the haters have been defeated.” That’s some pretty intense symbolism. In the video, Tyga can be heard saying, "This is the craziest chain I've ever had in my life."

Tyga also shared an Instagram of himself wearing his new ice. 

Tyga must be in celebration mode. On Monday, the rapper dropped his newest song “Goddamn” via his own Last Kings Music. The song follows the recent releases of Tyga's “Wow” remix, “Thotiana” freestyle, “Girls Have Fun” video, Ally Brooke collab “Low Key,” and more. Last February's Kyoto stands as Tyga's most recent studio album, though he is expected to drop a new project this year.
