Rap star 21 Savage reportedly got some new ink on his body that is reflective of a secret relationship that he has been allegedly carrying on with fellow hip-hop giant Latto.
Both emcees have refused to confirm or deny they are dating, though the rumors have been swirling for more than a year. But fans believe that it is too much of a coincidence that he appears to have a tattoo placed on the back of his ear that reads “Alyssa,” which is Latto’s real first name, while Latto, 25, has a tattoo placed in the same place that says “Shéyaa,” which is the name Savage, 31, was given at birth.
Though The Shade Room reposted the tatts, it was the internet sleuths who investigated the matter and believe they are secretly courting one another.
One person summarized some fans’ sentiments that, “The tattoo artist did a horrible job on both😂.”
However, another fan loves the fact that the two emcees, if they are indeed dating, are keeping things under wraps.
“I hope they never confirm. Keep it concealed 🤫 [It’ll] last longer …”
That advice was also doled out by NFL Hall of Famer Shannon Sharpe who recently hosted 21 Savage on his “Club Shay Shay” podcast.

In fact, 21 Savage told Sharpe that he was open to going public with his relationship. But after receiving that piece of advice from Sharpe, he might have changed his mind and may now keep it private.
