It pays to have friends in high places, and in Fabolous' case it blings — especially if your friend is multi-millionaire Jay-Z. 

While poppin' bottles and celebrating his 40th birthday with a Gotham City-themed party, rapper Fabolous received an iconic Roc-A-Fella chain from his management company ROC Nation, founded by Jay-Z. 

Eager to show off his shiny new gift, the Throw It in the Bag artist rocked his new accessory while party attendee's "oohed" and "ahhed"!

That's how you represent.

Fabolous isn't the first to receive the iconic chain. Others include J. Cole, Big Sean and DJ Khaled, but the thought definitely counts. What a gift!
