A clip of Lil Baby signing a contract with Rylo Rodriguez hit the internet earlier this week, and it's managed to get social media users talking. Though one may expect that the chatter surrounds their new deal, users are weighing in for a different reason. In the clip, Lil Baby appears to have gotten some new ink. He looks to have tattoos on both of his arms now, which is confusing to fans. The Atlanta-born rapper had previously claimed that he never wanted to get tattoos, but it seems like he's had a change of heart. Though it's tough to determine what exactly the tattoos say, they're pretty large and in fairly obvious locations.
In multiple previous interviews, Lil Baby has claimed that he doesn't want to get tattoos. His reasoning surrounded the way he would be perceived by others, as he feared being looked at as a "thug." He said that he didn't want to be looked down upon when he made serious money and wanted to do something meaningful with it.

“I don’t want no tattoos," he said in an interview with Big Boy in 2020. "I know i’m going to have something to do when I get older–with my money–and I don’t want to be like a thug. Even though I was a thug, I don’t want people to look at me like a thug.. People with tattoos–to me you look like a thug."
Though some fans claim that Lil Baby's ink may be fake, several others have been sharing their feelings on social media as if they're real. While many are somewhat disappointed that Lil Baby could have gone back on his claims, various users are in support of his decision. Others are somewhere in the middle, but still shocked that he apparently switched up. Check out some social media users' reactions below.
