) to have your face tattooed in the shape of an a$$. Or, maybe a clown face. If I ever got a face tattoo, it wouldn't be just a plain ol' blue tattoo.... plenty of color for me. Unfortunately, the odds of me ever getting a face tattoo is 0 to -100 and money has nothing to do with my decision nor does making money. I have money, I could get a face tattoo if I wanted. Maybe a face tattoo on my a$$..... now that could be a possibility

yo why is choo givin' him such a ard time?
Yo The Game was rocking face tats long before the SoundCloud days. I think it’s just a trend now. Not really my thing but hey, who am I to judge.The music industry will market the artists in the most appealing way, saying things like "they burned all bridges". However, the truth is that music is a commodity, and to differentiate, an artist has to find a way to stand out.
Tattooing your face is how most of those soundcloud rappers stood out.
Take 6ix9ine for example. He started out as a complete joke. People listened to him to make fun of him: his ridiculous hair, teeth, face tattoos, videos on social media... They didn't like his music, just laughed at him. Then, at some point, he hit such critical mass that he attracted a good enough producer and put out a hit or two, and suddenly people went from thinking he was a complete joke to questioning if they liked his music. Now, he's arguably top 10 in terms of rapper popularity.
The souncloud rappers started a cultural movement, and because of that, other want to be rappers started doing the same - tattooing their face for attention.
It's like Lady Gaga with her outfits, Nicki Minaj with her butt, The Weekend with his crazy hair... almost everyone has their schtick since not only do you need good music, but to be memorable (brandable).
Now what's hilarious is that all these idiots are getting face tattoos. Anyone that has rap ambitions is considering it. So, the market has changed from "standing out" to it being the norm. Idiots with no chance of a musical future are ruining their faces because they see it as a correlation to success.
I think the dumbest tattoo I've heard of so far is some no-name that got an Anne Frank tattoo.
My favorite though, is this one:
Lil Peep with the "Die Young" tattoo, combined with all his music about overdosing and killing himself young... only to be followed by actually dying young and millions of fans wondering "who could've seen this happen?"
P.s. If you don't agree with my analysis, take a moment to listen to someone like Lil Xan and then question if he'd ever get any attention without face tattoos.
