The true test of whether something is cool or not is seeing how often it has appeared in music videos (which is why I was so surprised that no one else has caught on to not wearing pants--thanks for nothing Gaga!). The ‘Black Jesus’ necklace is gaining a whole load of hype just for being awesome.
Designed by the well-named Good Wood company, the ‘Black Jesus’ necklace uses black wood to create its Jesus, which is attached to a 30-inch black wood bead chain. This necklace is almost as cool as the Black Moses album cover art by Isaac Hayes. Almost.
