Drake’s New “Miskeen” Face Tattoo: 6ix God’s LatestTribute to Toronto



Drake, similar to many other musicians, is adorned with an extensive collection of tattoos. Despite the fact that some of the portraits adorning the Canadian’s back have generated criticism over the years, he continues to amass more works for the collection. Instead of honoring one of his preferred icons, Champagne Papi sacrificed a small portion of the space above his eyebrow in a small nod to Toronto, the city from which he originated. As per his customary approach, Drake paid homage to his birthplace in an original manner by selecting a vernacular term with multiple meanings from the city for his most recent composition.

“Miskeen” derived from the Arabic language and means “destitute, pitiful, or despondent.” This undoubtedly cannot compete with the record-breaking, optimistic, and ambitious energy of one’s father. It is essential to note, however, that some natives of Toronto also employ the term to refer to a movement that fuses the realms of fashion, art, and music. The Miskeen Originals brand originated in West Philadelphia “from the struggling hands of a dynamite artist who painted shirts with such fervor that his community could not help but adore them,” according to Urban Dictionary.

Drake, in addition to attaining legendary status in the music industry, has imbued his NOCTA and OVO brands with his innovative vision. His incessant pursuit of novel approaches to disseminate his message resonates harmoniously with the “miskeen” movement and the public’s awareness of the 6ix God. While the Scorpion rapper has not provided an explicit definition of the term, it would be intriguing to observe whether he posts a heartfelt Instagram post announcing the addition to his visage.Drake is not the sole public figure who finds it easy to display a hometown-themed tattoo. Kai Cenat displayed his enormous New York-inspired tattoo with great pride to his followers earlier this month, garnering numerous compliments from fellow natives and art enthusiasts.
