Swae Lee just had some serious tattoo work done. The Rae Sremmurd rapper sat down for a 13-hour session with artist Miryam Lumpini, who flew in specifically for what she called an "emergency" procedure on Tuesday. The goal? "Fix" the SremmLife rapper's existing tattoos. In a before and after picture posted by Swae Wednesday, you can see that much of his existing ink was covered up, while other pieces were enhanced or improved. Overall, there was a heavy celestial theme to the new tatts, with a meteor and a sun shining through the clouds complimenting the Saturn in the middle of the rapper's chest. As Swae, put it, he needed his "own space."

Overall, he seemed very happy with the "intense" session. "Before and after of my chest wow the difference is ...well you can see for yourself!!" he wrote. Check out some photos of the before and after above.

Swae just appeared on "Chun Swae," a track from Nicki Minaj's new Queen album. He and his brother Slim Jxmmi, who collectively make up Rae Sremmurd, are currently on the Dazed & Blazed tour with Wiz Khalifa. The duo released their ambitious third studio album SR3MM earlier this year.
