The tattoo artist that did Drake’s Dad’s portrait tattoo is not happy with Drizzy’s latest comments.
Earlier this week, Drake poked fun at his Dad’s ink. He said, “@therealdennisg, I was just sitting here thinking why you do me like this we family,” with multiple laughing emojis.
Complex points out Dennis got the tattoo by an artist named Money Mike in 2017. At the time, he wrote about getting Drake’s face on Dennis’ left arm. Mike said,
“Had the honor and privilege of tattooing @champagnepapi fathers portrait on the man himself @therealdennisg. Thank you again, Dennis for the hospitality and for letting me do this for ya. CHUUUCH.”
In the latest report, Mike says that he can admit the tattoo didn’t come out as good as it should have. He blames Dennis and claims after four hours, he complained of pain and “rushed him.” TMZ also reports Mike said Drake broke an “unspoken rule” in the tattoo game to not go over someone else’s work. Dennis mentioned he got the tat reworked on 16 times.
Mike also told the outlet he did that tattoo for free, even though he’s not a “Drake fan,” with the hopes of getting more clients. Take a look (before is on the left, the new version is on the right):
