Weeks After Kendrick Lamar Called Him Out for Tupac’s Ring, Drake Drops $1.75 Million for His Car

The Kendrick Lamar-Drake was never only about the two. As the days proceeded and the stack of diss guns mounted, many prominent figures, including Tupac Shakur, found a place in the chaos. After a testy dispute between the rappers, K-Dot added a new lyric during his first performance since the feud, suggesting Drizzy should return Mr. Shakur’s ring to spark a fire. However, now weeks later, Drake responded by reportedly spending a hefty sum of money to buy Tupac’s car. 

Drake buys Tupac’s car amidst the hangover of his beef with Kendrick Lamar

According to a recent post by The Art of Dialogue on X, Drake has reportedly purchased the car in which Tupac Shakur was shot 28 years ago for $1.75 million. This news comes on the heels of Kendrick Lamar’s Pop Out: Ken & Friends concert, where he addressed Drizzy in a new lyric added to ‘Euphoria,’ suggesting he returns Mr. Shakur’s crown ring. The car in question is a 1996 black BMW 750iL sedan that closely matches the vehicle Tupac was last seen driving.

After Mr. Shakur’s death, the BMW 7 series was repaired and passed through several owners. However, it was not until five years ago that its historical significance was uncovered when a hidden compartment was discovered by a subsequent owner. By 2020, Celebrity Cars in Las Vegas listed the car for $1.75 million, and according to Car Scoops, the price remained the same as of last year.
