"Shocked" might be a bit of a stretch, considering that the rapper has been on a tear of unpredictable behavior since the release of his Barter 6 album. First he tried to cop the name Tha Carter 6 from Lil Wayne (and in an "unrelated" incident, his road manager was just arrested for allegedly shooting at Weezy's tour bus). The he got the "tribute" tattoo. What next? Will he start wearing clocks on chains as a "tribute" to Flava Flav? Anyway, all we have right now is that Young Thug got some fresh ink, and it's on his face. Here are six other prominent musicians that have used their heads as showcases for questionable art installations.

Of the 15 tracks on the 15 tracks on the tape, only two are solo and he made sure those features were worth it. He was able to get names like his cousin Chief Keef, Ty Dolla $ign, Lil Durk and Kevin Gates on the tape.

  • Jeremih, Gucci Mane Tease "Money Do"

    The long and confusing saga of Jeremih's upcoming album Late Nights: The Album continues with the unveiling of a snippet of a new track that will presumably be a part of it. Jeremih uploaded a 1:47 clip of his new song "Money Do" featuring the vocals of still incarcerated Atlanta rapper Gucci Mane.
