Finesse2Tymes’ $250,000 diamond grill tooth fell out during a TikTok Live broadcast on Saturday, November 14, in Memphis, turning a moment meant for showmanship into a viral mishap. The rapper was displaying his custom dental jewelry when one of the diamond-encrusted teeth slipped loose, prompting him to say, “Damn, made my whole teeth come out.” The right side of the grill also shifted, forcing him to subtly adjust it mid-stream.
The grill, created by celebrity jeweler Johnny Dang, is valued at $250,000. Finesse2Tymes had recently revisited Dang’s workshop during a livestream in October, approximately two years after first acquiring the piece. The live malfunction renewed attention on the rapper’s expensive dental accessory and became a focal point of online discussion.
The incident quickly drew reactions across social media platforms. On Instagram, users flocked to comment sections with jokes and comparisons. One user, @4thyglo, wrote, “Sometimes you gotta POP OUT & show 🥷’s.” Another, @lexijonesmua, likened the sound of the tooth falling to “dropping dice 🎲.” User @lovequeenstephc quipped, “‘My whole teef’ .. while referring to one 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂.” Others played on the grill’s fragility with humor. @urforeigndollie wrote, “I ain’t never seen tendernism on no grill 😂😂😂,” while @misstve added, “Now I’m ain’t EVA seen No BONELESS GRILLZZZ 😩😂😂😂.” @allfacts6 joked about deleting Instagram if something similar happened: “My IG would be saying ( user not found ) 🤦🏽 ♂️🤦🏽 ♂️😂.”
Finesse2Tymes has spoken openly about his dental health before. In an Instagram Live last June, he admitted that before getting veneers, he neglected oral hygiene. “I ain’t know no better before I got my teeth fixed. I was a street n***a, fuck brushing my teeth…wanted some money,” he said.
The grill mishap echoes a similar incident involving music executive Dame Dash in 2024. Dash’s diamond grills popped out during an Instagram Live, creating a viral moment that rapper Jay-Z later referenced in a freestyle at the Roots Picnic. Dash himself mocked the episode by captioning an Instagram post, “that’s what happens when you’re broke.”
The $250,000 grill episode did not overshadow Finesse2Tymes’ livestream entirely. His recent online activity has included stirring reactions, such as his thoughts on the breakup between Meg Thee Stallion and Klay Thompson, as well as a viral rant involving Gucci Mane.
The diamond tooth’s fall during a live broadcast adds to a small but notable list of public figures whose expensive dental jewelry has failed in real time, sparking both embarrassment and humor.
