damn

Smart investment, art doesn’t depreciate in value. Pretty good for a guy without a college degree huh (sarcasm).

That’s very ncie.. It’s the year of the Gentleman, indeed.

Collecting art is a great investment! get the right artist and watch the value grow!

for all you youngins buying into the image: Don’t let money change you like it changed Shawn Carter

art doesn’t depreciate in value? hell yes it can and does. Artist like Hirst exploits the art world and stupid money by making ridiculous pieces that will infact will mean nothing in the upcoming economic depression.

Right this moment the auction houses are luring stupid “new money” into buying art when the real money (Billionaires and Old Money) ain’t touching the shit because they know what’s going down.

Good for him. I don’t know if he or B really appreciate art or just like to get expensive things, but I like to see the growth in him. To think 10 years ago he was a knife toting rough neck. Not bad Jay. Not bad.

Candid Canuck

Unless it changes you for the better. Ain’t no use of staying in a jacked up state of mind for the sole purpose of keeping it real. Growth is a good thing.

@hatebossip: angry much?

Art is a better investment than a new car or clothes. Even if it depreciates you can always admire and enjoy the artwork and pass it down to your children.

Shawn Carter is growing up it happens to all of us, especially to men after they get married.

Co-sign Be,
Unless the artwork is a knock-off, an original piece will never depreciate as much as a car. I think this is a sound decision on his part.

I agree with BE. Definitely bettet than seeing an ice-out RocaFella chain.

Well, Bey did say she would upgrade him. LOL

“Hermes briefcase, silk-lined blazers”,…NOW, ART!

I HEAR THAT JAY–DO YA THANK–LOVE HIS SWAG

I MEANT TO SAY THANG* (SMILE)

maybe his fans in the hood will aspire to do the same thing!

Ummm he bought it because it was inspired by one of his songs…

Just like when they were pictured at a museum gawking at a painting…on the flip side it was a photo of Bey.

What ev. Guess he’ll be buying Warhol or more Basquiat next.

Bey? Upgrade him?

Lol, the blind leading the blind.

Buying high end items isn’t a sign of maturity or class.

It’s a sign that you bought a high end item. A trendy one at that.

Buys art and now he wants to open a gallery? STFD.

If he opens a gallery I’ll be the damned docier…

go to HipHopdx and look at the Dehaven interview about Jay-Z Am I My Brother’s Keeper

thats a good look for hip hop

Upgrade em Bey

Damn If that picture isn’t fly as ****

I guess it’s a sound investment and I’m happy he’s not buying iced out chains and a million cars. He didn’t say these were the only artists he were buying just named a few. I think it’s completely up to him and his wife what they want to invest in. He’s making sound investment decisions anyway so what’s a few pieces of pop art to him when he’s worth over $100 milli? When yall get that long dough, buy whatever kind of art you want to and stop sweating this man. Damn in your eyes, he can’t do nothing right!!!

To all the idiots in here saying “jay is stupid” for investing in fine art, youre the stupid ones. name one thing that jay-z’s ever done thats failed.

All his albums have gone platinum.
Rocawear is a cash cow eventhough i dont wear it anymore.
Part owner of the Nets.
$150 million record deal.
Worth about $300 million.
Sold 40/40 for $44 million.
Married one of the finest, richest most talented b*tches on earth.
He and Beyonce made $185 million last year.

What was he supposed to do with his money, go down south and invest in a chain of “Churches Chickens”?

Damien Hirst art is amazing. If Jay got art than he is growing as a man! Whats wrong with being civilized.

@please..

——————————————-

WHO CARES IF ITS BLACK ART? DOES THAT MATTER? BASQUIAT, JACOB LAWERENCE, TURNER AND GREEN ARE ALL GREAT ARTIST BUT WHATS WRONG WITH LIKING WARHOL, HIRST AND OTHERS. BLACK OR WHITE ART IS ART!

Ok so.. b/c Bey likes it you like it? SOunds mighty whipped to me.

Grow spiritually y’all. JZ sounds like he’s got nuttin to do wit his money…

@ Please,

Black art? I’d rather have a house full of Renoir, Picasso’s or Monet’s. Do you know most art that bought for $5 million today can be sold for double sometimes triple that amount within a year if the other person like some of these greedy ass CEO’s want it bad enough? You never own art, you collect it, admire it then sell that sh*t to the next person who wants to do the same thing.

Picasso has some hand drawn prints and lithographs that I’m eventually gonna invest in as soon as I’m comfortable enough to part with that kind of money. They range from $50k to $850k

He and Beyonce made $185 million last year.

******************************************

and he only put 500 Gs(diddy but another 500 gs to make it a million) towards Hurricane Katrina… he (they both) could have donated a million dollars. Jay and Beyonce needs to be more of a humanitarian and go out and try to help those in need, instead of just thinking about themselves or where their next vacation is going to be.

I love Jay he has the most sexiest dic* sucking lips!!

I love Jay he has the most sexiest dic* sucking lips!!

Now this bitch going to be rapping about art…and opening up an art gallery! jay Z sit your pseudo business man ass down the white men ass your kissing is laughing at you!

Yeah him & airhead Beyonce belongs together!

@ fake Its6am,

yawn, get over it tubby, 6am clowned you and you cant take it, your “6am is gay” is boring.

sumthin else 2 check out downtown.. peace hovie!

sunshine305/6am

nice try multiple poster gay booty bandit.

Trying to stay relevant. Nice.

I mean is it me or just a few on here that don’t see this transparent BULLSHYT. We all know Beyonce says she is a painter. So what lemme’ guess they are setting her up to be some BIG TIME artist and they can start selling her paintings along with others.

I mean cool if that is your hustle…It bothers me when people really “try” and act like they are up on something “NEW”. Now we seen pics of you guys at the beaches, stores, parties, shows and since you guys like art so much you mean the Paps aint caught yaw’ll in an art store??! GTFOOH!!

MAN MADE Business Icons don’t get it confused with Self MADE…

The fake hustle steez is cute…?

Please, check out my art and leave a comment. Cheers.

Lot of hate…it’s his money–he can do with it as he sees fit–

Your name is hatebossip, yet you leave comments on the bossip site–you seem to be be tool…

lol

Fake Z is lost.
