Rappers no long stay lost in their own music world. They are on the front page on fashion magazines, have their own accessories line and, not to mention, make a lot of crime news. Damon Dash has been no different, especially with his own jewellery band Tiret New York.

Now Damon has delved into another lucrative business, automotive design. With the creation of the Tiret Sport Coupe, Damon has taken over yet another fashionable piece of business under his wings. Designed after the Range Rover Sport, the Tiret Sport Coupe was launched at the watch expo Baselword. The SUV has Nappa leather upholstered seats, wood trim, and exterior mods include wider flared arches, LED lighting (just like the Fiat Barbie 500?) and 22” alloy wheels.
