Many members of the Hip Hop community are still mourning the tragic passing of Kirsnick “Takeoff” Ball. One of the Migos member’s longtime collaborators, Rich The Kid, honored Takeoff with new body art.
Tampa-based artist Tattoo MF Red shared footage of Rich The Kid getting Takeoff’s name inked on his hand. According to TMZ, MF Red completed the tat in around thirty minutes.
“Working on the homie @richthekid,” wrote Tattoo MF Red as the caption for his TikTok post. Over on Instagram, MF Red wrote, “Memorial tattoo for the homie @richthekid 💪🏻🚀 R.I.P. @yrntakeoff.”
Rich The Kid worked extensively with the Migos trio as part of the Quality Control Music roster. Takeoff, Quavo, and Offset linked with Rich for the Streets On Lock mixtape series between 2013-2015.
