After Gucci Mane showed out his giant ice cream facial tattoo back in January, here comes another rapper bringing out his latest ink: A Red Duck. Yes a duck…
On Tuesday (Feb. 22), Atlanta rhymer Yung L.A. showcased a red duck positioned on the left side of his face.
The ‘Ain’t I’ rapper visited Atlanta’s Mardi Gras Ink to receive the duck tattoo, along with what appears to be a tear drop under his right eye. During the ink session the emcee, born Leland Austin, was drinking a Styrofoam cup of that “purp” stuff. “[Lil] Wayne can’t do it right now,” he said while shaking his cup and showing off the liquor. “I’m doing this for Wayne, baby. I got my cups up. I’m sippin’ purple and I’m rockin’ purple.”
L.A.’s facial art is actually the logo of Atlanta-based record label Duct Tape Ent., which could be the new label the rapper has signed to. Music Insiders say that Duct Tape Ent. has denied any affiliations with Yung.
Besides going under the gun in the video, Yung L.A. also revealed he would be releasing a new mixtape, dropping March 15, and that he parted ways with T.I.’s imprint. “‘Tattoos and Jewelry,’ the most anticipated mixtape since uh, what would I want to call it, since the breakup of, you know with me not doing business with Grand Hustle anymore,” he explained. “There’s a lot of controversy in the streets, man.”
Rio’s take: That Tat is enough controversary bro… cmon son!
