Days after Young Money's Drake spent a memorable night with one-time girlfriend Rihanna at a Houston strip club, the hip-hop artist has gone a step further by tattooing the popular city onto his body.
The Young Money stud posted a photo of his new ink job onto image-sharing social network Instagram this week.
Drake puts his love for Houston in ink…so you know it’s real. Yesterday, the Toronto rapper celebrated November 18 with a brand new “H” tattoo in homage for H-Town. “November 18th H Town” he captioned under his new body art which features a shaded star. The date holds a special place in Drake’s heart. His song “November 18th” from So Far Gone is an ode to H-Town and a nod to the late DJ Screw‘s famous “June 27.” “Yeah, one time for the homie DJ Screw/Already, I’m feeling throwed in this b—-h,” Drake says on the track, which has become a fan favorite.

Earlier this year, Drizzy paid homage to a couple of late family members with tattoos.
Is this week “Young Money’s National Get Tatted Week”??, first Lil Wayne gets a tat on his forehead, now Drake gets one across his back, however Drake’s is more sensible. The rapper is showing respect to a couple of family members in the form of new ink. Drake went under the needle in honor of his uncle and grandmother. The images tattooed on his back, of his uncle who he credits for a lot of his success and his grandmother Evelyn Sher, who helped raised him, she recently passed away thanksgiving of 2012. Drake has shown his appreciation for them before on a track titled “Look what you’ve done” off his “Take Care” album. (Gossip Daily)
A couple years ago, Drizzy added late R&B icon Aaliyah to his body.
Drake may have the flimsiest hand in Hip-Hop, yet the rapper keeps a firm grip as he flexes in this new gym shot. The Young Money superstar has been working up a sweat as he prepares to take his ‘Club Paradise’ tour on the road, sharing his progress with fans on picture platform, Instagram. Kudos on the svelte physique, but those tattoo’s (Aaliyah one included). No. (That Grape Juice)
Recently, West Coast rapper Game talked about turning his butterfly facial tattoo into a Los Angeles symbol.
“You know what, when I was growing up, if you did something within the confines of the gang you were from, and you were able to get a tattoo in a certain space and I don’t know, I thought that reward was pretty cool. So I got my first tattoo, which was the tear drop, for doing the wrong thing and after that it was tattoo after tattoo. I probably got about 100. Over 100. [The face tattoo?] I really, really was an idiot at that point in my life. It’s a star with ‘LA’, putting on for my city.” (“Larry King Now”)

Jay Z is trash now. too bad ya’ll east coast nigga gonna dick ride regardless tho. but Pac been pulled his card. 50 was right Jay the coolest punk he always get niggaz to fight for him. Beans w/Nas, Tru Life w/Jim Jones Sauce Money w/DeHaven lol.
Im from Brooklyn fuc Jay-z
I fuck w/Maino HEAVYYYYYYYYYYYY that’s my nigga
Jay dissed everybody u named on record…..his crew went in on them too…just like Banks,Dre,Em , Buck and Yayo did for 50….who’s missing from this list? Oh yeh , the Game…..he kicked Game out bc he didn’t help him fight …so what’s 50? dick riding is never cool kido…
The same Pac that was doing ballet in a performance arts high school. The same Pac that rocked leather vests with no shirt on underneath and a nose ring. The same nigga that was always yelling and screaming like a lil chick. Hop off Pacs nuts, yall act like that fake thug was Jesus.
Lmao, I’ll take Jay over the 5 Drake nominations. Minus the colab with Kendrick, but only cause I want to see Kdot get an award.
yall dissing Jay are irrelevant, yall praise the workers- Pac, 50, game, Jay is on Boss shit from the start- yall niggas never saw THE GODFATHER? you wanna be a worker or a boss, The Godfather, The Boss sends the workers to do work. Idiots
Your a ho, Jigga don’t know you, he don’t care for you, he can defend himself, hes a big boy now you know. Bosses dnt need internet protectors… apparently.
apparently you don’t know how to read, probably the same way Jay-Z lyrics go over your head… idiot, read the first thing I wrote- “Yall dissing Jay are irrelevant” so if you get mad that means the shoe fits, I never said He needs protection, like I said he’s a Boss he doesn’t know me or you I’m talking to idiots like you who can’t recognize real accomplishments. I guess people like you can’t comprehend how far he has gone, oh well maybe you’ll understand some day.
It doesn’t make sense to argue about Jay. Most people that hate on him are just fans of rival rappers. If you are objective you recognize that he is a hip hop legend and a great business man.
Yes smart move JT
Comeback with a king
On your side very smart move
Just saying
“YALL RESPECT THE ONE THAT GOT SHOT,I RESPECT THE SHOOTER”! # HATE WON’T GET YOU NOWHERE # BROKEMINDSNEVERPROSPER #MAGNACARTAHOLYGRAIL #JULY4 #FUCKTHEHATERS #NEWRULES #KINGHOV #WHATDONTKILLYOUMAKESYOUSTRONGER
