A$AP Mob boss A$AP Rocky is riding the Lil Uzi Vert wave. The New York rapper has hooked up the rap newcomer with an iced-out diamond chain.
According to reports, Rocky connected Uzi with jewelry icon Ben Baller, who laced him with a necklace worth nearly $100,000.
Custom jeweler Ben Baller of IF & Co. tells TMZ … he considers this one of the top 3 chains he’s ever done. He made it for Uzi after meeting him through his business partner, A$AP. We’re told A$AP and Travis Barker vouched for Uzi, and the deal was done. Ben says Lil Uzi’s already ordered a 2nd chain, but this one’s gonna be hard to top. (TMZ)
Recently, Young Thug gushed over his love for Lil Uzi.

Last month, rap veteran Fong Sai U told SOHH why he dissed Uzi Vert with his new “A Time To Kill” song.
“There’s young artists out here I respect and the ones I don’t, I don’t blame them for saying stupid sh*t. I blame the old washed up cats around them that’s more focused on them making them money instead of giving them jewels about the game. It’s not a young or old thing. H*ll, I was pumping Uzi’s “All My Chains” song but when him and Lil Boat [Yachty] started dissing the game and saying anyone that’s lyrical is washed up and old? That’s when I woke up. Then when Uzi dissed Ab-Soul I had enough. You’re old enough to swing, you’re old enough to get your a** whooped. Period.” (SOHH)
