“Old Streets” rapper 2KBABY isn’t letting his face tat critics stop his grind … if anything they’re motivating him ahead of the release of his “Scared 2 Luv” album.
We caught up with 2KBABY this week … fresh out the tattoo parlor, of course, where he added even more ink to his face — including a pair of hearts and the album title on opposite sides of his face.
Despite the hearts, 2K didn’t get much love from the fans, just a lot of noise from the haters … and he tells TMZ Hip Hop the reactions tested his patience a bit.
Call it a colorful act of defiance, but 2K says he’ll keep pushing the limits of his body art — he does NOT care about pain, and actually had some words for rappers who use numbing creams while getting tatted.
As for fan reactions — he says he’ll be watching to see how many of his 600K followers are down for the long haul. Everyone else is invited to dine on his genitalia … although, he used slightly more colorful words.
Less aggressively, the Louisville-born rapper told us ‘S2L’ will be a collection of cinematic songs … reflecting his life experiences and delivered in audio format.
2K says he’s only one song away from completing the new album and “Old Streets” also went platinum this week … just a few more bones for his haters to gnaw on!!!
