00:00 - Hold on bro, hold on.
00:01 Yo, where my 2 Rare piece at?
00:06 - Everybody flexing.
00:08 We on GQ man.
00:09 - All right now bro, what the fuck are you doing?
00:12 - What are you doing bro?
00:12 - Get out your hand, come on.
00:13 - Get on GQ, start acting crazy.
00:15 (upbeat music)
00:18 - What's up y'all, this is 2 Rare.
00:21 I'm rocking with GQ and you're watching On The Rops.
00:24 (upbeat music)
00:26 (upbeat music)
00:29 - So my 2 Rare piece, I ain't gonna lie,
00:34 I don't remember the estimate, estimate,
00:36 but I know it's somewhere around like 90.
00:39 I had to set a statement.
00:40 Everybody had their chains and shit.
00:42 I'm the only rapper probably in my city with no chains on.
00:45 I kinda waited my time.
00:47 So I'm like, my first piece gotta be busted.
00:50 I gotta go big on them, you feel me?
00:51 'Cause they expected some little shit out of me.
00:53 So I'm like, I'm gonna do the unexpected, you feel me?
00:57 This from Ice Style Customs.
00:59 My homie, his name Del.
01:01 I'm like, bro, I need a logo.
01:04 I want him to do like some Willy Wonka type shit,
01:06 you feel me?
01:06 'Cause like me, filming on some cartoon characters,
01:09 shit on top of it with a bandana on my head.
01:12 Like people don't be peeping that shit
01:13 until they really see that shit in person.
01:15 (upbeat music)
01:17 Man, you gotta show this, show this, damn.
01:23 I was actually bored bro, I ain't gonna lie.
01:26 Like when I came up with this piece,
01:27 I think I had just recently seen like Drake had popped out
01:31 with like the Pharrell piece.
01:32 I'm like, I gotta do some iconic shit like that,
01:35 you feel me?
01:36 Yo, where my phone at, Rob?
01:37 Let me see my phone.
01:38 I'm about to show you how I came up with this shit, bro.
01:40 I actually had tried to edit this shit myself.
01:42 I'm like, everybody don't do the Marvel and DC together,
01:49 you feel me?
01:50 So I'm like, I'm gonna do some shit different.
01:52 That's gonna have people talk, you feel me?
01:54 That's just me.
01:55 Joker guy be the main jump 'cause he like,
01:57 he stand out the most I feel out of everybody.
02:00 But Black Panther, I had to put the Black Panther on there.
02:03 Had to represent, you know, Superman.
02:06 I always fuck with Superman, you feel me?
02:08 I don't say these hoes though, but you know.
02:10 I knew Spider-Man just was gonna look good on a chain,
02:13 you feel me?
02:14 But yeah, everybody like, bro, you can't do this,
02:16 you can't do that.
02:17 I do what I want, bro, I don't give a fuck.
02:20 - And then the Marvel and DC piece, how much did that cost?
02:23 - Whoo-wee!
02:24 [laughing]
02:27 A buck and some change.
02:28 I really got rings.
02:33 I lost probably like two of 'em, you feel me?
02:35 At the airport.
02:36 I think somebody, you feel me, took my shit.
02:38 I got some more bigger rings and shit.
02:41 My heart one was my next one.
02:43 I know the females was gonna go crazy about this one,
02:45 so that's why I had to do 'em like this here.
02:47 This one was my next one too.
02:49 See this piece right here.
02:53 This was inspired from Radio Raheem.
02:55 Doing the right thing.
02:57 I seen how he came through with the fingers
02:59 and so he had the love and hate.
03:01 I always wanted two joints to go with two,
03:03 but I'm like, my name's set up weird,
03:06 so you can't even do 'em like that there, you feel me?
03:08 This shit probably ran me like 30.
03:12 - Have you taken that one through TSA yet?
03:13 I feel like they might stop you.
03:14 - I ain't gonna lie, they always stop me for brass knuckles.
03:18 They even think I'm carrying brass knuckles,
03:20 I be mad at this shit.
03:21 When it's going through the scanner,
03:23 all they see is the three O's and shit,
03:25 like some San Andreas GTA shit.
03:27 So they like, yo, this nigga got brass knuckles
03:29 or whatever, you feel me?
03:31 They be cooking me, for sure.
03:32 AP.
03:36 Watch was like 40.
03:37 40 something, these usually run for like 50, 60.
03:41 This my second watch, actually.
03:43 My Cartier, I don't got it no more.
03:45 Me being a kid, I fucked it up.
03:48 It got dirty and I kinda outgrew that shit, you feel me?
03:51 It's like, all right, I did this.
03:53 So I'm like, when you get jewelry,
03:54 that shit kinda be like, you on to the next,
03:56 you feel me, so quick.
03:57 So it's like, I get some big dog shit and I got the AP.
04:01 For sure, for sure.
04:02 This is something special.
04:05 This from Second Estate Records,
04:08 from the CEO, Mel Carter.
04:10 I'm the first signee, you feel me?
04:12 So this is like something special, he gave it to me.
04:14 He was like, yo, you gotta either go gold
04:16 or you gotta get on a freshman cover.
04:18 I did both.
04:19 He didn't even make me work for it, bro,
04:20 but yeah, I got it.
04:22 White and Ruse Gould.
04:24 Good piece right there, that shit shine different.
04:28 Fedricky.

04:36 so what's mine is his.
04:38 So you might catch me with the underdog piece sometimes,
04:40 my A&R shit, but it's like my shit too.
04:43 So we gotta add him in there,
04:44 'cause I know y'all be seeing me with that shit sometimes,
