Rick Ross, the multi-GRAMMY nominated rap impresario, is set to auction over 300 rare sneakers, including more than 100 Air Jordans, and unique memorabilia at Julien’s Auctions. The exclusive event, titled “PUSH IT TO THE LIMIT: LUXURY & LIFESTYLE: A RICK ROSS AUCTION,” will take place on June 25-26, 2024, in Los Angeles, California, and online at Juliensauctions.com.
A portion of the auction proceeds will benefit The Boss Up Grant Program, presented by The Creative Collective NYC, aimed at empowering the next generation of entrepreneurs. This initiative aligns with Rick Ross’s lifelong commitment to giving back to the community and supporting emerging talents.
Rare Sneakers and Iconic Memorabilia Up for Auction
The auction will feature over 300 limited-edition sneakers, including highly sought-after models like the Air Jordan 3 “Father of Asahd,” created exclusively for DJ Khaled, and the Nike Air Max 90 “Unknwn Miami 305.” In addition to sneakers, Ross will auction personal treasures, such as a gold metal concert grand piano featuring Michael Jackson’s “Thriller” album cover art and a two-time Platinum record award for “Aston Martin Music.”
A Philanthropic Vision
Rick Ross expressed his motivation for the auction, saying, “I looked around one day and marveled at how blessed I am. I wanted to figure out how to be a blessing to others and share some of the dopest, rarest luxuries with the world that I’ve collected over the course of my career.”
The Boss Up Grant Program will benefit from the auction proceeds, providing grants to fearless entrepreneurs to scale their businesses and make a lasting impact. The Creative Collective NYC, the largest community dedicated to empowering Black creatives and entrepreneurs, will administer the grants.
