Lil Wayne Really Loves Baker

Yes ladies and gentle men, our beloved rapper turned skateboarder has gotten another face tattoo. The question is who cares right? I mean he already has 9 stars on his left side hair line and a flower inside his ear on the same side, the word “Misunderstood” on his left side hair line, the “Young Money” Logo as well as “soo woo” going down the left side of his neck ( already were at 13 tattoos ) a “W” for our favorite rappers favorite letter, as well as his name “ Weezy”, the words “ Fear God” one word tattooed per eyelid, and a C for his last name ( Carter ) and his mothers first name ( Cita ), a smiley face tattooed on his inner lip, the words “ I am Music” over his right eye and two tear drops beneath ( one for each person in his family whose died… but I thought It worked a little different ) , a tribal symbol, the dots meant to represent “laugh, think cry, the name Tune and some cracks tattooed going down his neck, the word Lucky Me paying homage to Jay- Z ( 28 tattoos so far ). He also has “ I am Pimp behind his right ear, the name Orleans on his side burn and the New Orleans Saints Logo, a gun tattooed on his neck ( why? ) , three glow in the dark stars and a set of lips on his neck, a tear drop near his mouth, another crack on his forehead, a heart on the right side, a cross tattooed on his forehead, “999” behind his left ear, a smiley face next to the heart, lightning coming from a cloud that we forgot to mention, the word “imperfect “– at this point we decided to stop counting and did some research. It appears the only one we left out was a recent, “TruckFit” logo and character behind his left ear. That makes 45 tattoos in total from the neck up… err 46. Two days ago a photo of Lil’ Wayne’s newest tattoo paying homage to the Baker Skate Boarding Company was dispersed all over the internet causing everyone to question how committed he actually is to the sport versus just trying to appear committed. The tattoo is of Baker’s “BAKE’D “Design. Five squares spelling our BAKED. The design was featured on skateboards, hoodies T-shirts and as you could imagine cause quite the emphatic uproar among the stoners within the skateboarding culture. I’m sure Baker didn’t mind the free publicity either, however I wonder how Andrew Reynolds feels about the whole thing. Wayne has been an avid skateboarding fan over the past few years, most recently stating that he would put rap on the backburner for the sport. He has been seen more than a few times with pro skaters soaking up culture, and falling on his backside. He is quoted as saying, “I picked up the skateboard and I thought it would be a hobby, but it’s a lifestyle. You have to be fully committed. In order to be fully committed, you have to live that lifestyle. What these young kids say right now, you have to be about that life. I guess I’m about that life," he said. Personally, Im still not convinced. “It’s kinda putting rap on the backburner, that’s all. Rap is a taking backseat to skating. That’s alright. But I kind of feel I deserve that. … I think fans deserve some peace from me." However many still believe his venture into skateboarding is nothing more than a marketing plot, or a way to see increased profits in years to come. Admittedly he’s pretty bad <--- ( footage of wayne sucking) at the sport though rumors are circulating that Theotis Beastly and Paul Rodriguez are giving the up and comer some firsthand pointers. Who knows, maybe he’ll even have a part in the New Baker Video. All Jokes and speculation aside, click here to see for yourself exactly how many tattoos Lil Wayne has.
