Freddie Gibbs is no stranger to picking fights on social media. Last month, a longtime beef he's had with DJ Akademiks was reignited. Ak used Gibbs' birthday as an opportunity to take some shots at him. Not only did he bring up an online nickname of Freddie's but also made jokes about his albums not selling high numbers. Freddie took some shots back at Ak and it quickly devolved into the pair hurling insults on Twitter. Now Freddie is under attack from someone else entirely, his fans.
Earlier this week Freddie Gibbs took to social media to show off a massive new leg tat he got. That tattoo features three portraits of Samuel L. Jackson, Mike Tyson, and Wesley Snipes respectively. Immediately once the video was posted to Twitter fans began to question the accuracy of the art. "That’s 50 Tyson" read one of the comments which elicited a laugh from Gibbs. Others took aim at the whole idea of the tat. "Getting movie characters on your skin at 40 some ridiculous shit but hey could be worse," one comment reads. Check out what it looks like below.
