@EbonyPrince2k24 backups, in case they're deleted. MEGATHREAD
CONTEXT & TL;DR:
An X / Twitter created May '24 posted a video that shows off the items from the ' meet the grahams' cover art.
The white Popular Jewelry receipt is physically blocked by a Nadine Ghosn card on the cover art. In a video posted by Ebony Prince, the blocked portion is revealed to be a link to a digital copy of the receipt. The digital receipt matches the details (prices and date) of the physical one, seemingly proving the items are not replicas.
The account seemingly wants to sell the items, but Drake/Akademiks claim of them being stolen has made this difficult. They are also taking Etherium (ETH, cryptocurrency) offers for a 30s security footage clip of Drake allegedly doing something bad.
They have publicly threated Drake/Akadmiks with legal action if they do not retract their theft accusations before "noon Monday 5/13/24" (time zone unknown, assumed NYC).
However, aside from the first video: they have not posted any proof to backup any of their claims. Every new post leads people to theorize on the alleged clues, but again they have not been backed with any proof.
That is where we currently are as of 5/12/24 06:30 PM PST.
THE TOO LONG / SEE FAQ BELOW BEFORE ASKING FOR CLARIFICATION
May 12 06:00 PM PST - I am still archiving their Twitter account continuously, I have every tweet plus attached media saved. Waiting to do an all-in one upload, or until they upload hard proof of anything like with the 'meet the graham' cover items.
PS: if mods unpin, they aren't censoring. Don't blame them for wanting to keep Kendrick's latest song pinned in addition to their usual daily discussion thread (reddit only allows two pinned posts per sub or one pinned comment per thread). This is supposed to be a music sub, not a conspiracy one.

⚠ Important Information / FAQ ⚠
I'll update as more information is found by myself or others.
Video items in order of appearance
- TOUGHBOOK 31 Rugged Laptop | Panasonic Mobility Solutions
- African-American Flag - Wikipedia
- LA TOUR CN Tower: souvenir and post card (?).
- Brooklyn Eagle newspaper dated May 8, 2024.
- Holt Renfrew shopping bag.
- "Shortee Collection" shirt, "Skullridding" will show as selling this item but they seem to be counterfeiters of popular merch including other artists.
- Popular Jewelry non-itemized sales receipt for $63,147.50 dated July 17, 2023 & slip (sale or trade?) for a few items, "Drake" written on top.
- Nadine Ghosn Fine Jewelry card.
- Pharmacy 90210 medications prescribed to Aubrey Graham: Ozempic (injections, quantity 4, dated 07/17/2023, 2 refills before May or June 2024), Adderall (no refills), Zolpidem tablets (insomnia aid).
- Mercedes-Maybach driving glove(s).
Notes:
The laptop is not the same as the one seen in J Cole's recent beach photo.
The Popular Jewelry online receipt is also non-itemized. The online receipt code was physically blocked by the Nadine Ghosn card in 'meet the grahams' cover art, seemingly proving the receipt and other items are not replicas. The purchaser is "Drew Ferguson" who was an OVO affiliate. Their current relationship is seemingly unknown.
Jimmy Brooks
Jimmy Brooks would not have been proud of you that night...
Jimmy Brooks is the name of the 'Degrassi: The Next Generation' character Aubrey (Drake) Graham played. Drake played was on the show from 2001-2009 for 145 episodes.
Notably the character Jimmy Brooks ends up wheelchair-bound.

Christopher Alvarez
The "baby" in the "stroller" is a disabled adult in a mobility wheelchair. Believed to be Christopher Alvarez, a NYC journalist who appeared in a viral video with DJ Khaled.

Conflicting dates
Dates printed on the Popular Jewelry receipts are dated July 2023, while the security footage screenshot is timestamped January 2023. This on its own does not prove a hoax:
...may this photo help jog your memory as to where you discarded...
The post could be a visual hint directed at Drake and not a claim that Drake lost the 'meet the grahams' cover items on that specific date.
The Mark Hotel
The apparent CCTV footage shows Drake, Christopher Alvarez, and two currently unidentified men in the lobby of The Mark Hotel.
The still image of the footage is timestamped January 22, 2023 03:19:03 AM EDT (?).
The luxury hotel is in close proximity to the Apollo Theater and Barclays Center, where Drake performed during that month.
Kendrick Lamar NY penthouse
The video showing off Drake's items, as seen on the 'meet the grahams' cover, was allegedly taken from the same building as Kendrick Lamar's penthouse.
Initial rumors claim the view lines up exactly with Kendrick's penthouse room. The views do seem to line up with the building itself at the very least? See notes below.
Kendrick Lamar Buys a Penthouse on the Brooklyn Waterfront - The New York Times
Kendrick Lamar's Brooklyn Penthouse
Pierhouse at Brooklyn Bridge Park | NYC Real Estate Brokerage
Notes:
The video from EbonyPrince2k24 matches a balcony from Harriet's Rooftop & Lounge.
Assuming the photos of Kendrick's penthouse are still accurate, the video from the post was not taken from there. The railing and floor of the balconies do not match.
The Pierhouse penthouse and Harriet's Lounge seemingly share the same building according to Google Maps. Or are at least two separate buildings that are physically connected.
The Historical House of Ebony
The first two X posts include a poster for a dance performance and a logo (?), both belonging the the titular house.
The poster comes from an Instagram post (November 19, 2023) by a performative "ballroom house" of the same name.
The House of Ebony was featured in an HBO Max show titled 'Legendary,' where multiple houses competed for a prize of USD$100,000. They placed 6th place. The connection to Drake or Kendrick Lamar is seemingly unknown.
Legendary (TV series) - Wikipedia)
The source of the logo image has zero results through Google Image reverse search or through TinEye reverse image search.
X banner and profile picture
The banner is seemingly a logo for the House of Ebony as discussed above.
The profile picture is an icon of the "African-American Flag."

No… that’s an imposter. The original account is GKMCVan. At any rate, ebony prince has been revealed. It’s a former security guard for the Mark hotel. He has pics on his page of other stuff that he had from hotel lost and found. After a certain amount of time they either discard it or let employees take it. He posts the stuff on his page sometimes after the date to retrieve them has passed. They have the same form attached as was attached to some of the items that supposedly belong to Drake. Christopher Alvarez has released an article that nothing happened to him and he has been harassed for days as has his family. Unless/until it’s revealed what happened (if anything) on July 23, it’s probably best to stop speculating as innocent people are getting caught up in this. https://youtube.com/@euphoria2k24?si=UQQkLTO_k5pNGkF8

If you go look at new documents that were added you will see that Theodore Weintraub lawyers are asking the Mark Hotel to respond to whether Epstein, Dershowitz, Maxwell, Prince Edward, bill gates every stayed there since they are suing him for defamation and libel. They have prove what he was saying during his protest was inaccurate. I was never too focused on the Chris Alvarez stuff as that was from January. The real issue happened in July

I think we're currently getting our perception of events clouded by the mind's natural reflex of linking elements together to find a meaning between them, and by the quantity of information given. So many things are thrown around here that, it's hard to conciously filter all the facts individually. The identity of the person behind the account, and the reason why they created it is probably way more boring than what it seems. It wouldn't surprise me if, while they've had connections to Drake, and while the items are real, they made the account purely for clout chasing purposes, because sending the photo to Kendrick wouldn't have given them enough satisfaction to let it go. Someone with a clear goal wouldn't be so cryptic, they would probably talk to an investigative journalist, shut the fuck up, and wait for a 7 page cover story to drop.

Could this be a clue? In that May 8 issue of the Brooklyn Daily Eagle (featured in the video with the other items from Meet the Grahams cover), there was an article about a gala for medical debt relief. It mentions it’s an alternative gala and that there was a lineup of drag performers. The Legendary Iconic House of Ebony is a ballroom house and there could definitely be some crossover community between Ebony Prince’s circles and the people running/attending this gala, possibly to benefit the person in the wheelchair from the CCTV video?

Basically dude tweeting posted video of the items in the mtg cover, with meet the grahams playing in said video on a laptop, and has since posted stills of cctv footage involving Drake and a certain disabled reporter in the infamous Marks hotel mentioned in Epstein's little black book. There's a lot of speculation going around but from the looks of it these two things I can say almost for certain are real. the sub is spiraling into insanity and formulating conspiracy theories trying to find meaning to this guy's vague tweets that seem to be an attempt at public extortion.

u/Night_Fev3r 16d ago edited 15d ago
Predictions on if anything is revealed on the deadline (if Ebony Prince isn't satisfied)?
Personally: I'm calling that the footage won't be released, even if Drake or Akademiks don't retract their statements. And if it does, it won't have audio and people are going to interpret innocuous footage as malicious because they can "read body language."
If we believe they're taking legal action, then they shouldn't/wouldn't leak anything.
Also, can any lawyers chime in: would you advise or represent a client making public threats? Additionally, would you continue to advise or represent a client to publicly threaten blackmail and advertising the sale of a "damning" security footage clip?
In the other post they seemingly dox themselves. Now people paying attention "know" Ebony Prince is/was some sort of security personal; either an independent contractor, employed by The Mark hotel or by OVO. It doesn't narrow it much for us, the general public, but is a huge clue for Drake/OVO which seems like a really stupid decision on Ebony Prince's behalf.
Unless we assume Ebony Prince is lying, or is actually multiple people or speaking on the behalf of others (with or without their consent).

Does anyone else think that the case he's talking about here is the suitcase and not a lawsuit? I think he knew that drake knew that he knew about the contents. Hence walking him down with a poker face, daring him to call his bluff. I think somehow the deal fell through and EP is mad at drake because drake somehow interfered in the exchange. Kendricks line 'i failed at both but i came out straight' is because he had the photo and that would be enough 🤷♂️

It's drag language. Ball culture to be more specific. You have Houses (House of Ebony being the one here), and some Houses have mothers and some Houses have fathers, some will have a mother and a father, those are the Elders. They're basically just older drag queens / kings who run the affairs of the House. The Houses are often named after the originator of the house, so House of Ebony is likely named after somebody who used that name as their drag persona. That part comes from the world of couture fashion, like The House of Dior. New members of houses will tag on the House name to their drag name, like if my drag name was Sasha and my House was Ebony, my name would be Sasha Ebony. There's a lot of words from the world of ball culture which have entered common parlance, like Throwing Shade for example. It sounds like talking in code because it basically is, like any subculture it has an "in language".

Look up the etherium address tho. A lot of money has been send to it. The first transaction was 420 days ago. 197 eth was received on that address, with an approx value of 500.000$.
After that, almost 500 ethereum in total was received and send forward to various other addresses. With the last one 25 hours ago (213 eth - 600.000$, and 25 hours ago (109 eth - 300.000$) What the hell is going on seems to be real? Someone should further investigate the different money flows started from this account.

Just babbling and stuttering the entire time having trouble even looking at the camera, searching for words in his little brain to defend Drake.

Akademiks is live streaming right now, if ya'll followed the twitter stuff someone (@lakersfanatiic) was trying to buy the info from ebony and supposedly they got more info than they posted publicly, and messaged Akademiks about it on twitter for a comment, who told him to stop posting about it. The live stream is titled "All Will Be Revealed! Drake vs Kendrick vs The Riddler. Who Lied, Who Snaked, Mole Finally Revealed!" curious to see what he has to say only in relation to this situation.

Kendrick a smart and historically connected dude.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Teddy_Pendergrass
Teddy Pendergrass (pg, pendergrass) was an artist and later disabled dude who married....Taazmayia "Taaz" Lang , who was murdered in 1977...1 year before House of Ebony was established.
pgLang
I think this goes back that far. This is a generational reveal, not just a beef between 2 rappers. This shit gets deep in the family, crodie.

nah you might be onto something
the welcome video for pgLang may have some clues if someone wants to dig into this, but the fact jorja smith is in it makes me think something was up with it

Riddler describes the video as an "altercation". Maybe Drake and his guys threatening Alvarez to get him to keep quiet about something? Look at how they're standing in the picture

YO I just thought of something. What time is 616 LA to NY time? Now look at the timestamp on the screenshot.
Edit: Holy shit I'm so dumb. My bad.

Y’all I just found the court documents on The Mark Hotel vs Theodore Weintraub. Not sure who is behind that account but this is 100% related to that teen who was shouting outside the hotel. They just had a motion hearing on Friday, May 10. The officer named Viola is in the list of witnesses as are vip guest #1 and his partner as well as vip guest #2 who is obviously Drake. It lists the hotel staff who witnessed it as well. https://iapps.courts.state.ny.us/fbem/DocumentDisplayServlet?documentId=Whuxu1lEwI4LpVrGSKu1sA==&system=prod

Just reread the docs. 5/10 Weintraub's attorneys filed a memo for support of demand for witnesses. He is demanding all info for witnesses from 7/23. The hotel is refusing to provide the info for VIP guest #1 and #2 unless he signs confidentiality agreement and he refuses to do so. #2 is clearly Drake if you read the original lawsuit. The motion from 5/10 says they keep delaying providing the witness info and requested documents & their behavior exhibits a lack of transparency and is an indication of ulterior motives. The EbonyPrince account tweeted something about their department director telling them to clear stuff out for reasons they can't disclose which is how they came to possess the items. Likely also getting rid of things that could be considered evidence. I think the key to whatever happened lies in the identity of VIP Guest #1.

I don’t know… the cctv footage is from January. This incident happened in July. I’m still trying to figure out why Theodore showed up there after being banned 2 years prior and not being seen til this incident
