Drake Takes Shots at The Beatles With New Tattoo Celebrating Billboard Record

Written by Isabelle Hore-Thorburn in Culture

Drake is partial to a tribute tattoo and his new addition celebrates overtaking The Beatles' Billboard records.

Back in June, the rapper overtook The Beatles' record for the most songs simultaneously listed in the Billboard Hot 100’s Top 10, which the group held for the past 54 years. He’s also beaten the group’s record of total tracks on the Hot 100's Top 10 in one year, and passed their record of Hot 100 Top 10s ever.

The commemorative tattoo which appears on his forearm illustrates his claim to have “more slaps than The Beatles” which he posited in his verse on Meek Mill's track, “Going Bad.”

The illustration in question sees Drake walking in front of The Beatles in a satirical revision of their iconic Abbey Road album cover. Take a look at the very Drake ink above and another view of it below.
