Ben Baller recently shared insights into his collaboration with artist KAWS on a $1.6 million chain for Kid Cudi. Known for his intricate and museum-worthy pieces, Ben detailed the complexity of the project, emphasizing its artistic value. He also highlighted his criticism of Travis Scott's Murakami chains, which he deemed bootleg. Unlike the official collaboration pieces made with Takashi Murakami's involvement, Scott's chains lacked the artist's blessing. Despite the drama, Ben maintains strong relationships in the art and music world, having worked on multiple successful collaborations with Murakami and other artists. His pieces, such as the KAWS chain, continue to tour globally, reaffirming their status as both jewelry and high art.
