what do yall people not get about he isn't dropping these name because he loves art for it's artistic value, he's dropping these names to flaunt his wealth in a way that wealthy white people do all of the time

How do you know this?

You're not saying nothing except you're an ignorant, dusty, hating ass nikka that thinks all black people view life through the same dingy lens that you do.

White people are not the only people that make, appreciate, or are patrons high art.

That's just the type of shyt nikkas like you tell themselves so they'll feel comfortable with themselves.

All races of people make and buy expensive pieces of art.

People of all races are able to appreciate the intelligence, engineering, craftsmanship, time, hard work and dedication it takes to make a high quality art piece.

Every piece on this list was made by AA's and each piece is worth millions of dollars.

Y’all are simple

You have to have money to buy it in the 1st place and there’s a big plethora of things to invest your money in that appreciates other than art

You know there's a saying, and I hate to say this, what's understood doesn't have to be said...lol but we're simple. Name off some things you'd rather see black people invest in.

 

[Kuwka_Atcha_Ratcha]

We don’t care if it appreciates in value cause old white men say so

We don’t care about you mean mugging in front of the Mona Lisa

We don’t care about performance art videos

We don’t care that you rented the Lourve

We don’t care about the MOMA

shyt is not our culture and it doesn’t have to be just cause certain people consider it a rich folk hobby.

A half white man that finally found his lane pandering to dusty nikkas that don't know better.

I think it being sold as one of the best investments for his audience by him is the real issue. Preaching this to a group with the level of discretionary income is disingenuous and corny. The Carters really trying to earn that "pro black" badge.

 

[Dead End]

Art isnt that bad but YOU should buy art that YOU like... Like some alex ross shyt...

Looks cool but I can't respect grown ass folks that have stuff like this hanging in their house.
