Drake honours late Virgil Abloh with new tattoo

Rapper Drake is honouring the late Virgil Abloh with a powerful new tattoo.

The Certified Lover Boy artist celebrated Abloh’s life and legacy with a tattoo commemorating the time the fashion icon famously threw a Louis Vuitton kite down a runway during the Louis Vuitton Menswear Spring/Summer 2019 show as part of Paris Fashion Week in June 2018.

The work was shared by tattoo artist Joaquin Ganga, who posted a photo of Drake’s new ink, located on his forearm.

“A remembrance of the great Virgil Abloh done on Drake” @champagnepapi @virgilabloh,” he captioned the post.

Abloh, the artistic director for Louis Vuitton and the founder of Off-White, died on November 28, after a private, two-year battle with cancer. He was 41.

Drake, who collaborated with Abloh on everything from music to his redesigned private plane, shared a series of photos of the pair over the years, calling the late designer his “brother.”

“My plan is to touch the sky 1000 more times for you…love you eternally brother thank you for everything,” Drake shared at the time.
