A list of the most infamous chain snatchings in Hip Hop history

Inspired by Yung Berg's recent beating and robbery, Complex magazine has put together a list of the history of chain snatchings in  Hip Hop.  From Rakim and LL to the most recent Tyga and Yung Berg robberies, the chronological list includes the victims and the alleged perpetrators.  As a bonus, since there's rarely a police report to verify the robberies and sometimes the rumors are unfounded, they rate the validity of the claims along with how damaging it was to the artists' street cred or career.
