Allow me to take you to this corner of the internet, formerly known as Musical.ly. What is TikTok? Thanks to Czech TikTok person

Expensive and extravagant clothes is something almost every musician dresses nowadays. “Streetwear” is the mainstream nowadays. But a  big old chain is still one of the privileges of rappers. I’m sure that sometime in the future, we’ll make a summary of the wildest things on the necks and wrists of Czech and Slovakian rappers, but for now, I want to take a closer look at one
