Young Dro Loses Much Rapped-About Maserati

Young Dro is an Atlanta-based rapper who, among his many ‘hood-inspired’ tunes also has one in which he raps about his very own Maserati Quattroporte. The car is not merely mentioned in the video - it is about the car itself, and, as you’d expect it’s completely unpredictably called Maserati.
Even the chorus of the song is properly themed, borrowing ‘He’s the kind of person/ Goes to drive a Maserati’ from Judy Collins’ "Hard Loving Loser" song of 1967 - a period when Maserati made the prettiest cars in its history, a category in which the current Qattroporte doesn't really fit in, but that’s another story.

So, apparently, Young Dro had leased the $134,000 (€106,000) car, yet he was unable to keep up with the $1,606 (€1,279) monthly payments so the car was taken away. Rather ironic and tragic at the same time, so this must mean the money and the flashy stuff we see in rap videos is just for show - there might still be hope for the ‘common man’.
