Last year, rappers Jay-Z and Kanye West set their differences apart and recorded a single called “Otis”. In its big-budged video, a brand new $350,000 Maybach luxury saloon was thoroughly destroyed to show the opulence and wealth the two had reached, where such a car was just a toy.
Now, the Mayback will be auctioned off and the money it raises will go toward a good cause, the Save The Children foundations. The president and CEO of this organization said the money will go toward helping families in East Africa.
“Jay-Z and Kanye West are towering figures in contemporary culture,” the auction house said in a statement. “They have greatly contributed to the artificial barriers between art, music, fashion, and cinema to come down. Their video for Otis became an instant classic. The Maybach they have transformed for it has the starring role.”
