Rap-Up.com || Lloyd Debuts ‘Guns & Roses’ Tattoo on His Head

To celebrate the release of his new album King of Hearts, Lloyd debuted a new tattoo and hairstyle. During a visit to “106 & Park” on Tuesday, the “Lay It Down” singer unveiled his new cropped cut and “Guns & Roses” tattoo on the back of his head.

Lloyd, who has several other tattoos, explained why he got the fresh ink. “I’m a walking contrast. I go from hard to soft, I go from guns to roses, which is what’s on my tat. And I like to go from the streets to the sheets,” he told host Terrence J. “I make street-savvy R&B music, but I also like to slow it down and be sensual at times, so when you listen to King of Hearts you get a lot of the contrast of who is me.”

The tat reminded him of his late grandfather. “I lost my best friend in the world July 4th of last year, my grandfather, and the whole time I did it, I just thought about him, all the good times we shared,” he explained. “Every July 4th I go down to New Orleans and I visit him and spend time with the family.”

Miguel, known for sporting his own bold haircuts, saw Lloyd’s shaved head and chimed in with his thoughts. “Imitation is the Highest form of Flattery. Shout to LLoyd,” tweeted the “Sure Thing” singer.

What do you think of Lloyd’s new ink?

Being tatted is a trend… In a couple of years it’s not interesting anymore, and that’s where they’ll start regretting it.

Sure, it looks dope. But I highly doubt if he even thought twice about getting it.

On the other side; you can remove tattoos, so it shouldn’t be that big of an issue.

@Lisa, Removal of tattoo is still not an easy process. It take months if not years to remove if done properly.

Contrary to many of your comments, Lloyd is extremely intelligent. It amazes me how people can always dog someone else out and they sh*t f*cked up from head to toe. And for you narrow-minded people I’m not talking about outside appearance. Your credit f*cked up, yo’ momma don’t like you, your kids are dirty, you on welfare, sh*t do you even have a high school diploma??? So please, before you try to diss somebody else for their creativity and expression, fix yo own sh*t. Lloyd is the shit.com and I love him for always being true to himself. You ain’t gotta look at his head. Just buy his f*cking album #THATISALL

Really moderator – U just gone take my comments down huh? Whateva! Lloyd do you baby – all day & all night & eff the haters. As long as your pockets stay padded and your swag is on 10, they’ll talk. But just know that we know (those who matter), that you are extremely intelligent. Express your creativity however you like. You got a fan for life. Now all you who calling him stupid and don’t like his new look, close your eyes AFTER you pick up his CD “King of Hearts” from the store. That is all!
