Another OF crossover question, this one about Rap and Coins.......

In the OF recently there have been posts about Rap, Rappers and Rap Muzak. Since I am in crossover mode today (my post on the Supreme Court eminent domain decision of yesterday and it hypothetical application to any private property, including coins), I have a question in a similar (albeit lighthearted) vein.
My question is:............ Does anyone one know if any Rap artists collect coins? I have no idea but I consider some of my finest coins to be the numismatic equivalent of "BLING BLING".
Someone should suggest to Rapper extraordinare Fiddy (Fifty, for you folks who are not up on proper pronunciation of his name) Cent that he should consider supplementing his paper collection of "Benjamins" and "Dead Presidents" with smoe PQ coins (i.e. Frankies).
Have him make a new video showing him living large with PQ coins in his crib, in his ride, etc. and a whole new generation of collectors will materialize overnight. Then a new movie could be made titled "Coins In the Hood". He could then show up at a National Coin Show with his posse and his ladies to cruise the bourse looking for new acquistions (that would be a sight to see, particularly the reaction of your average, middle aged, white, coin collector).

and not necessarily a GOOD sight
One TTT just to see if anyone else want to reply to this somewhat unusual (and maybe flat out nuts) topic.
I was hoping for a little amusement in reading your thoughts.
