Default Rappers destroy Maybach 57S in music video (Jay-Z and Kanye)



Jay-Z and Kanye West chopped up a $341,000+ Maybach 57 in their music video "Otis". They made their own Landaulet. Talk about wasting $$$.

That is Kanye's "other other Benz".

Nice video. Full of potentially great gifs.





FWIW, I do enjoy this album.

Stupid idea for a video. Typical idiotic hip hop video. All about look at my cash and how I can waste it.
