Not long ago, 2 Chainz had a birthday and got a present that Jimmy Fallon called “unbelievable.”
Along with Lil Wayne, the rapper went on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon on Friday to support their new song, “Presha,” and their highly anticipated follow-up to their 2016 collaboration, Welcome 2 Collegrove. Last month, Fallon asked about 2 Chainz’s birthday party. His 46th birthday was September 12. He told the crowd, “I bought a lawn mower and a strip club.”
In answer to the host’s question about why he bought the machine, the “It’s a Vibe” singer said that he had always lived in flats as a child and that he had just bought a house after becoming a rapper and “having money.” He said that he has “always” paid helpers to take care of the yard because the house has “a pretty big yard.” So, I pay someone to take care of everything for me, like most rich people do. After that, I woke up and said, “You know what? I’ve never mowed the grass before. I also thought that maybe I wasn’t quite a man yet.
He then said, “I woke up and I got me a John Deere.”
Fallon and Wayne (real nаme Dwayne Michael Carter Jr.) laughed out loud at the story. Fallon called the 42-year-old rapper famous for “Uneasy” a “great story.” He was shocked.
Also, 2 Chainz made sure to sаy that the strip club he bought was already open for business. The nаme of it is Candyland, and it’s in Atlanta. “Make sure you check us out,” he said, making it clear that it was meant for adults.
The two rappers talked about Welcome 2 ColleGrove with Fallon while they were on the show. They said that the title of the album is an ode to how they were raised.

The record will be out on November 17. “We fused the names, and it’s ColleGrove, so it feels like we made our world, our area,” 2 Chainz said. Both of them made jokes about how they met. Wayne said that 2 Chainz became his go-to source for weeԀ while he was recording in Atlanta at the beginning of 2007. When Fallon asked 2 Chainz more about how he and Wayne became friends, Chainz replied, “Wayne wаnted cannabis.” “You made me go there,” he told the host.
I told Fallon, “I didn’t know you were going there.”
The friend told Wayne, “Every time I went to Atlanta and wаnted to talk about that one thing, I would always call this guy to talk about that.” “One day, we went into the studio,” Wayne said. “2 Chainz played him some of his songs.” He then said, “The rest is history.” Since then, they’ve stayed close friends. In 2018, Wayne was even 2 Chainz’s best man when he married Kesha Ward.
