Hip-hop artists have always been known for their jewelry. Now an exhibit at the American Museum of Natural History explores this deep connection between the artists and their jewels and how sizes and styles have changed and evolved as the music has changed and evolved. Numerous items belonging to a wide variety of rappers are on display.  

The largest portion of the collection is comprised of pendants and necklaces. They include one of Nicki Minaj's Barbie pendants, Tyler the Creator's bellhop necklace, Drake's Crown Jewel of Toronto pendant, and much more. Other items of jewelry on display include Cardi B's nipple covers, Beyonce's nail covers, various artists' grills, a few crowns, and more. 

The exhibit even extends to the walls which are adorned with pictures of many of the artists decked out in some of their favorite pieces.  All in all, it's an overwhelmingly dazzling display of jewels.

And that's our view. For more about  Ice Cold: An Exhibition of Hip Hop Jewelry, visit www.amnh.org/exhibitions/ice-cold-hip-hop-jewelry. For more information about the American Museum of History in general or to purchase tickets, visit www.amnh.org.
