"He was excited to show the club off," said Ron Berkowitz, the CEO and founder of Berk Communications, who ran PR for 40/40 from its inception.

Even moguls like NFL boss Robert Kraft and Warren Buffet made their way to 40/40. Beyoncé and Magic Johnson palled up at the opening of the club in June 2003. The club was a magnet for rappers and athletes: 2 Chainz had an album release party there for the debut of "Based on a T.R.U. Story" and Jay-Z himself put on a listening blowout for "4:44." LeBron James and A-Rod both had parties there at the elite lounge. Even Floyd Mayweather and Leonardo DiCaprio, who was supposedly there to find Rihanna, were there.
Jay-Z and his team began Roc Nation Sports as a partnership with talent agency CAA (and late dissolved that partnership after two years). The summer the club opened, Jay sponsered a team for the Entertainers Basketball Classic in Harlem's Holcombe Rucker Park, a high-profile tournament that attracts street-ball legends and professional ringers alike. This was for cross-promotion. The team he assembled worked as an advertisement for his newly opened club, and his newly launched S. Carter Reebok basketball sneaker.

#New 2 chainz mixtape august 2012 tv
He has a fashion line of hoodies, CEO Millionaires, and a range of sweaters, Dabbing Sweaters. He is quite the business investorĪnother major contributor to 2 Chainz’s net $6 million net worth is his business investments. The reality show began airing in 2017, and the Georgia-born rapper, who stars at the show’s host and protagonist, has been on the air for three seasons so far, with more than 40 aired episodes. While he had minor roles in those projects, 2 Chainz took a more prominent position on the Viceland show, Most Expensivest.
#New 2 chainz mixtape august 2012 tv
He has appeared as an actor on the shows, Law & Order: Special Victims Unit, 2 Broke Girls, and the TV movie, Rubberhead. 2 Chainz is a burgeoning TV starĮven when his music began to lose their popularity, 2 Chainz continued to maintain his net worth with a career in television. He has also earned royalty from the use of his songs as a soundtrack in more than 45 projects, including films, TV shows, and video games. The significant percentage of 2 Chainz’s $6 million net worth earned through music, comes from a discography with five studio albums, ten mixtapes, four EPs, and over 95 singles, several of which have been certified gold or platinum. It debuted on number four on the Billboard 200 and sold 65,000 copies in the first week. The album received strong critical reviews and performed modestly well commercially. So far, 2 Chainz has released five albums, with his last being Rap or Go to the League, which he released in March 2019. At this time, 2 Chainz became a popular name in hip hop with singles like No Lie and Birthday Song, and he was earning $100,000 to feature on a track. His first album, Based on a T.R.U Story, was released in 2012 and has sold more than one million copies after selling 147,000 copies in the first week amidst mixed reviews. Prior to the mixtape release, he has released six mixtapes, his first being Me Against the World. In 2011, 2 Chainz released his first charting mixtape, T.R.U REALigion, which peaked at number 54 on the Billboard Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart. Their second album, Supply & Demand, was released in 2007. While he was a member of the group, he released two albums, United We Stand, United We Fall, which introduced him to the Atlanta hip hop music world and got him and his partner, Earl Conyers, aka Dolla Boy, a record deal with Ludacris’ Disturbing Tha Peace. He began his music career in 1997 as part of the hip hop duo, Playaz Circle. He has sold more than two million album copies and sold even more via singles. If there is a pie chart about the contributors to 2 Chainz’s net worth, music will take more than 50% of the whole. However, while there are a couple of things to point to as the source of 2 Chainz’s admirable net worth, it is his distinctive personality that has helped him become one of hip hop’s millionaires, especially after his music stopped setting the charts on fire. Sources of his net worth include music, TV, and business investments. 2 Chainz Net Worthīefore he was 2 Chainz, he was Tity Boi and Drenchgod, and with that name, he has achieved a net worth of $6 million, according to Celebrity Net Worth. This article takes a look at his net worth, along with how he made his significant wealth, succeeding where others have failed. The former college basketball player’s net worth might pale in comparison to the wealth of prominent hip hop names like Drake and Jay Z, but he remains one of the most successful acts of modern hip hop. 2 Chainz may no longer have the popularity he once had when songs like No Lie and Birthday Song dominated the Billboard charts, but he continues to release new music and has maintained his net worth through TV shows and entrepreneurial ventures.

Tom Lehrer's song "The Old Dope Peddler" is sampled in rapper 2 Chainz's song "Dope Peddler", on his 2012 debut album, Based on a T.R.U. Story.  The following year, Lehrer said he was "very proud" to have his song sampled "literally sixty years after I recorded it".  Lehrer went on to describe his official response to the request to use his song:
"As sole copyright owner of 'The Old Dope Peddler', I grant you motherfuckers permission to do this.  Please give my regards to Mr. Chainz, or may I call him 2?"

米ヒップホップ名盤のストリーミング有無早見表
"名盤"とは何かを悩みだしたら面倒臭いので、ここは専門誌The Sourceが1998年に100号が出たことを記念して選出した"Top 100 Best Albums of All Time"を基準にした。NAVERにまとめている人がいて都合が良かっただけだけど。この記念号による"オールタイム"とは1984年から1998までとなる。
