Lil Scrappy Tattoos President Obama’s Face on His Stomach

By: Taren Vaughan

Did Lil Scrappy get a President Obama tattoo on his stomach? Lil Scrappy is one rapper that attempts to keep himself in the know when it comes to topics outside of the music industry. During this year’s Summer Olympic games, Scrappy tried to show love to Swimmer Michael Phelps for becoming the most decorated olympian of all time in addition to defending Gold medalist Gabby Douglas who caught much criticism over her hair. And he included some noticeable spelling errors in the process that got him dragged like crazy by some of his many followers on Twitter, a Lil Scrappy President Obama tattoo on his stomach apparently having the same effect on people. The dragging he got over his Michael Phelps comment didn’t stop him from continuing to voice his opinions though, Scrappy being just as vocal during the presidential election as President Obama and his campaign team worked diligently to get him re-elected into office. Lil Scrappy, along with a number of other Black celebrities, made it clear that they were very much behind President Obama and found no problem verbally slaughtering those who were against him. However, Scrappy didn’t stop at just vocalizing his support and adoration for our president. He decided to take things a step further and get inked up in honor of the POTUS as a way to celebrate him getting re-elected. Taking his Twitter followers through each phase of the tattooing process, Lil Scrappy tweeted a photo of the finished product for them all to see:

Here is Scrappy proudly showing off his tatt of President Obama’s face on his stomach, the POTUS’s face plastered in the center of a dollar bill:

As with most African American men, and African Americans in general, there is a strong sense of pride when it comes to the First Family. And just thinking about their accomplishments and their position in our country is very inspiring. Yet many people are going in on Scrappy extra hard about the way he went about expressing himself.
