The soft side of Kanye West has fully been on display this week.
First, the rapper actually broke down in tears while talking about a late professor and mentor, Louise Wilson, a former teacher at Central Saint Martins College of Arts and Design.
Then, he went ahead and apologized to Beck and Bruno Mars on Twitter for past slights made against those artists.
Now, Kanye has gone ahead and gotten a pair of new tattoos, each honoring a beloved family member.
Via Facebook, wife Kim Kardashian writes (in jest?) that West wanted to get this ink on his face, but she convinced him to get it on his wrists instead.
The tattoos are of West’s mother’s birthdate and West’s daughter’s birthdate, both in Roman numerals.
Donda West died in 2007 after complications from surgery, with Kanye having recently released the track “Only One,” which was penned from the perspective of his mom talking to him about North West from heaven.
Meanwhile, he and Kim are trying ("As many times a day as [we] can," the artist said in a BBC 1 interview this week) for a second child.
What do you think of Kanye’s new tattoos? How do they compare to some other famous tattoos on some other famous body parts?
