Warning: Do not try this at home!

So the infamous face tattoo reappears again on the face of “The Boss” Ricky Rozay. Out of all the places and as if one face tattoo isn’t enough, Rick Ross has inked the logo of his favorite eye wear brand onto his left cheek. AOL’s The Boombox reports that the Maybach Music Group boss has taken the love for his favorite vintage eyewear shades company, Cazal, to the next level by tattooing the brand’s logo below his left eye, near the infamous MMG logo he previously tattooed to his face. And no…it’s not sexy!

The Miami rapper reportedly has an immense vintage collection of the brand, so from now on just call him “Ricky Cazal.” The glasses designed by Cari Zalloni in 1975 were popularized by DMC of Run-DMC in the ’80s , and have long been a popular fashion accessory in the hip-hop community. Now, Rick Ross has made the luxury glasses brand a true staple in his life. I guess the new MMG (Maybach Music Group) G-code is “Live by Cazal, die by Cazal”…now that’s “gangster!” (side-eye)

With popular artists like Gucci Mane making headlines for his outrageous tatted up face , I would hope that parents use instances like these to inform their children of what not to do and also explain to them the difference between the fantasy-like lifestyle of the entertainment industry and the real world. Don’t get me wrong, I love Rick Ross and have always been highly inspired by the Cazal brand eye wear, but whether Ross likes it or not, being one of the most popular artists out right now , he is looked up to by many children and young adults, particularly young men and even some grown men, who take a high interest in his music and Maybach Music culture. And as if the world isn’t materialistic enough, in a way it even seems as if he is praising and encouraging the idea of materialism (blank stare). I mean it is okay to indulge in your favorite fashions but tattooing a fashion label on your body takes the idea of “branding” to an all new “higher” height if you know what I mean. I don’t know, I don’t want to get too deep but let’s be honest, if your son or daughter’s music career doesn’t work out, who’s going to hire them with a tattoo of Gucci or Louis Vuitton plastered on their cheek? But then again no worries, I’m sure Ricky Rozay and his Maybach Music Group team have plenty of positions available.

My background is recruiting. I have 20 years experience. Whether you want to call it discrimination, or protection of the corporation, corporations have a right to pick whom ever they want to represent them. Whether you’re sitting in an office or out in the field, your literacy Is always in front of you. What you look like and the words that come out of your mouth are what you are saying about yourself. Tattoos are a no-no. As a recruiter, when I take your phone call I listened to your grammar, and if I hear anything that sounds like ghetto, I’m unable to assist you. The majority of the positions I’m recruiting for require you to interact with senior level executives at my clients companies. If I present you to my client and they hear what I heard, I will lose my contract. My contract is to make sure that people have the right demeanor, right attitude, right education and most importantly the right presentation skills are presented to my client. We as African-Americans are now certainly heading in the wrong direction when we take it upon ourselves to scar our bodies and create a new English that can’t be understood, and try to look as dangerous as we can when we are out in public by wearing dark clothes dark glasses ho and hoodies. Different than white folks, we are identified by our color. Some of us are not towing the rope. causing many of us to defend our right to be taken seriously. These same people are the people that causes the rest of the world to be frightened of us just because of the color of our skin.
