“At Least $500 Million Worth of Art in Their House”: Mike Tyson’s Stunning Confession About Money

Mike Tyson opened up about money and wealth in the recent episode of ‘Hotboxin’ with Mike Tyson’ podcast with Swizz Beatz. Tyson talked about the days when he was 21 years old, and most of the big names in the industry were his neighbors. The conversation sprouted from the art collection journey of Swizz Beatz, and Tyson added on about his experience with wealthy people owning art. Swizz Beatz speaks about art being a currency, and how people don’t explore it as much as they should. According to him, it’s part of the culture and everyone should embrace it.

Swizz Beatz began collecting art in the early 2000s and has since amassed a significant collection of works. In addition to his personal collection, Swizz Beatz has also used his platform to promote the work of emerging artists. In 2019, he curated an exhibition at the Paddle8 Gallery in New York City featuring works by artists from the Caribbean and Africa.

DJ Whoo Kid starts off the conversation about art and paintings. Kid said that despite Swizz Beatz, only Jay Z is the one who has talked about art in his raps. Still, he added, what Swizz Beatz did was something else. Swizz basically encouraged everyone to get involved with it. Swizz Beatz admitted that he saw art and paintings as a new form of currency.
