Protect Ya Neck! Hip Hop's Illest Chain-Snatchings

In the bragadocious, bling-obsessed hip hop world, a man's chain is his flag, his identity, his record-deal advance. So it's no wonder that the ultimate insult is being robbed for your necklace. Last week, after reports of an altercation between 50 Cent's entourage and Maybach Music Group rapper Gunplay — who'd been talking slick about 50, an old foe of his boss Rick Ross — a video emerged of Fif wearing an MMG chain. Many figured it was Gunplay's. Either way, it's just the latest wrinkle in hip hop's long history of chain-snatching. Read on to see other rappers who gave up the goods.
