Kevin Durant gets Rick James tattoo on his thigh

Less than two months after getting a tattoo of a famous rapper on his leg, Kevin Durant has added a new tattoo of another famous musician to his body.

The Golden State Warriors forward recently got inked with an image of ’80s singer Rick James on his thigh:

Tattoo artist Steve Wiebe is the one who did the James portrait on KD’s thigh. Wiebe also inked Durant’s Tupac leg tattoo in July (see it here).

Many were surprised to learn five years ago that Durant was hiding tattoos from the world under his jersey as they were all contained within his chest area. Now he has some elaborate art work that will be visible to all.

We’re just wondering what led to the Rick James tattoo. Did KD suddenly start watching some Dave Chappelle reruns or something?
