Pharrell mentions that he “copped that NSX” in his song “Can I Have It Like That”.

After making some money from music, Pharrell bought an Acura (or Honda, depending on your location) NSX as his first sports car.

The NSX became a hot item in the early 1990s because it maintained an impressive balance between high performance and everyday usability. Manufactured in Japan, the NSX can accelerate as fast as and reach speeds that rival those of far more expensive cars, such as Ferraris, Lamborghinis, and Porches. In addition, unlike most other sports cars, the NSX sports a V6 engine, while most of its competitors have V8 engines.

In 2005, Honda discontinued production of the NSX; however, a new, revamped model of the NSX is set to be featured in the upcoming blockbuster film The Avengers.

Looks like Curren$y is up to date on his financial investment information!

Over the past decade, gold prices have increased by 300%, and peaked at $1908/ounce in August 2011. Since then, prices have dropped to roughly the $1600-$1700 range.

Curren$y’s solid bracelet would need to weigh roughly 2 pounds in order to be worth as much as a nice, well-equipped townhouse, which is a tad bit heavy for a bracelet.

Nevertheless, Spitta’s bracelet is clearly worth a pretty penny.

Clown shoes tend to be foolishly long and big in order to add to the goofy demeanor of a clown. So, most people’s feet are too small for clown shoes, and this leaves plenty of room for their toes.

If Domo let you walk a mile in his shoes, or experience his life on a daily basis, you would just feel uncomfortable and would not be able to handle it, since he is highly esteemed and held up to very high expectations.

Also, Domo’s shoes are too big for anyone else to fill, since he has accomplished so much in so little time and is so well respected. Thus, no one can replace him, and anyone that tires to will just look unnatural and fake.
