Kanye West and Jay-Z ‘Otis’ $350,000 Maybach to be Auctioned for Charity

The world-famous rappers have donated the mangled Maybach to Save the Children.

First they demolished the $350,000 Maybach for their collaborative hit Otis directed by Spike Jonze, now they want to give it away. Such is the fickle nature of world-famous rap stars Jay-Z and Kanye West who have donated the car to charity organization Save The Children. The proceeds, expected to be around $100,000, will go to families in East Africa according to the charity's president and CEO Carolyn Miles.
