After Tito, Jacob “The Jeweler” Arabo became the most famous jeweler. From The Notorious B.I.G, to Diddy, to Rihanna, his clientele was top tier.
Speaking of Biggie, when he died in 1997, Jay Z continued wearing his Jesus piece. It was his way of honoring his late friend.

“It’s part of my ritual when I record an album: I wear the Jesus piece and let my hair grow till I’m done.”
