Platinum League: Hip Hop Trading Cards



Growing up as a kid I collected all sorts of collectibles, Pogs, trading cards, Gundam models, and comics, to name a few. Out of them all, trading cards has become so popular from having a holographic Ancient Mew card, or a rookie Michael Jordan card, its value will only go up in a matter of time. Throughout the years I have seen some ridiculous takes on incorporating real life with that fantasy world of being able to have control over certain characters. For example the film Space Jam or even having Action figures of your favorite basketball players. Let's see how Platinum League works out.

Recently a company named Platinum League has released the “first ever interactive hip-hop trading cards.” Each card will feature a specific artist, their highlights throughout their career, and a little bit of background info.

Ballerstatus.com states “Each card also comes with a QRL code that links to exclusive video content from each artist, accessible from any smart phone or mobile device (thanks to their free app The League Media Player)." Like any other pack of trading cards, each pack will consist of 5 cards, and a 6th which will be redeemable for prizes such as cars, Rolex watches, cash, etc.

 Some of the Artist that are featured in the Platinum League series include E-40, Notorious BIG, Mindless Behavior, 2 Pac, Devin the Dude, and Trina.
