The photo featured Gordo in a black outfit, with his face covered by both hands. The chain featured a few words, which seemingly read NERD and had a black symbol in the middle. Meanwhile, Drake has not shared any response to the viral post until now.

On the other hand, netizens took to the comments section of the post by the record producer to share their reactions to Gordo’s chain, with one of them writing:

According to Hot New Hip Hop, Kid Cudi had put his chain on sale at the JOOPITER auction, which he received from Pharrell Williams in 2005. The outlet stated that the chain was being sold for $243,750 and Drake had reportedly purchased it.

Similar responses continued, with a user claiming that Pharrell wouldn’t leave Anthony Blackmon for taking the chain.

“Pharrell would beat this fat n***a a**”, an X user wrote.

The duo’s friendship has grabbed attention on different occasions, including when Gordo opened up about Drizzy’s condition in July 2024 after Drake’s rap battle with Kendrick Lamar. Anthony Blackmon confirmed during an interview with People magazine that Drizzy appeared “happier” after everything that happened and continued:

“He’s been past it. The thing is that he was just on the longest tour ever. He literally did a tour for like a year. I think he’s just chilling.”

While Anthony Blackmon had already released an album in 2024, his debut album, Papi Gordo, was released in 2015, followed by Battered Bruised & Bloody in 2018.
