La Di Da Di, Slick Rick's Still Gaudy

Posted Dec 4th 2007 7:50PM by TMZ Staff

Once upon a time, not long ago, before Slick Rick started spending his dough ... he could probably actually read his watch without blinding himself!

Just to make sure everyone knows he's still richer than you, the rap pioneer rocked a diamond crusted eye-patch, diamond rings, diamond necklaces with diamond pendants, and a diamond watch -- complete with four extra rings of diamonds -- to a party at the Velvet Room in Atlanta over the weekend.

Oh, and even though you can't see it in this photo -- he's still rockin' the OG gold teef too! Hope he saved some of the '80's loot to hire a bodyguard.

3. They seem to be dropping like flies today. How about a poll as to when this guy is going to go belly up?

How can he possibly think he looks good? He looks like an old fool who forgot to take him medication. Damn.

10. Nice Bling!
What would you bet he has zero savings or investments.
I hope they shoot him next!

11. oh yeah and he is SO interested in his homies in the hood who are trying to just scrape up a decent meal and a safe, warm bed.

but then again, why should he be any different from any other mega-rich celebrity? Most of them spend disgusting amounts of money on this week's designer 'it' clothes, shoes, and bags, and blow major carbon-ass footprints in their jets and Mercedes SUVs.

God forbid they'd have last week's Blahniks or Chanel. Horrid fellow men (women.)

12. Hey Mikespace,

La di da di........... we like to party...............we don't smoke dope.....and we don't bother nobody.

He is awesome. Lets not even mention the race card, too many fools on here already. There are good and bad people of every race, nationality, and gender.

13. A walking target for a break in or personal mugging...hope the man has a hi tech security system at home and bodyguards with him. With BOB crime levels they way they are, this guy is acting like a walking Brinks Truck with a sign on him saying "rob me".

Poor Example to anyone on what to do with your extra earnings. But alas, its a free country and PC People will encourage more of it just to demonstrate if you got it flaunt it.

Try wearing a Starter Jacket or Air Jordans around town and see what happens. Safe only in the suburbs for that stuff.

14. Hey Everybody!!

HAPPY CHANUKAH!!!!

15. This is how Balck Men feel powerful and am Black

It's so embarrassing, not to mention it looks ridiculous.

Would Donald Trump, Bill Gates, or someone WHO REALLY HAS MONEY, do such things, they don't BRAG ABOUT THEIR MONEY.


Am from the Bronx, and Slick Rick and his mother lived one block from me, on DeRema Avenue, it was a decent neighborhood, where we own our homes but not lavish.

He doesn't even work now really, he must have RENTED THE JEWLERY, which makes him even MORE PATHETIC

Aggh! we have no shame.
