Who knew The Game was a Democrat.

Reports HipHopWired:

The Compton rapper recently got a tattoo of Barack Obama’s face on his chest, and documented the new ink on video.

Noted tattoo artist Carlos Macedo is who handled the inking duties. The photo used the official White House portrait of the POTUS and is centered basically in the middle of the “Hate It Or Love It’ rapper’s chest, just above the “Compton” tattoo that spans across his belly and below his pecs.

Macedo is the same artist that inked “New York” on Sean “Diddy” Combs’ forearm. Check out some photos of his work and celeb clientele, including Cassie, Tech N9ne and Jay Rock, in the gallery. Peep the Game getting Obama permanently inked on his body (unless or until he changes his mind and has it covered up) in the video below.

In other news, Game is getting sued by 40 Glocc for a cool $4.5 million (for pain and suffering and emotional distress, among other things) after putting hands on the G-Unit affiliated rapper last year. That would put a serious crimp in his tattoo habit if Big Bad 40 were to actually win in court.

And now…the video.

And now…a gang member who’s color is red but tattoos a politician who is in a gang group represented by the color blue. The irony of it all.
