Pharrell Responds to Drake’s Comments on Melting Down His Jewelry
Grammy-winning producer and Louis Vuitton men’s creative director, Pharrell, has addressed Drake’s 2023 comments about buying and threatening to melt down his old jewelry.
In a recent interview with GG Magazine, Pharrell reflected on auctioning his jewelry in 2022, saying, “You never realize how much all the stuff you have weighs on you, but it does… When you let that go, man, you feel so free.”
Asked how he felt about Drake’s remarks in his verse on Travis Scott’s “Meltdown,” Pharrell responded, “It didn’t.” In that verse, Drake took a jab, rapping about melting down Pharrell’s chains and dismissing their heritage value.
Drake’s $3.3 million jewelry haul included unique pieces like a N.E.R.D. pendant chain and a skateboard chain, which he showcased in his “Jumbotron Shit Poppin” video.
