Did you know 1 in 7 people in North America have at least one tattoo? And 70 percent of us tatted folks have more than one tattoo?

We’re getting into all these facts and the history of tattoos in this episode with the dopest tattoo artist in the game Oba Jackson.

In this episode we discuss:

  • Where and why tattooing started in different parts of the world
  • When Oba first fell in love with tattooing
  • Racism in the tattoo industry - from the gate keepers in the tattoo world, to tattoo artist discriminating against melanted folks- cause they can’t tattoo- as Oba discusses in the episode if you can’t tattoo on black skin then that means you can’t tattoo PERIOD!
  • Oba tips on how to find a tattoo artist and how to be the perfect tattoo client

And so much more
