Since The Game's no stranger to permanent ink stains, we asked the West Coast MC, who's famously known for having over 100 markings, to educate us on the science and biology of tats. Since the rapper has a tattoo on nearly every part of his body, including the L.A. logo under his right eye and a teardrop on the side of his left eye, the Game is practically an expert on the subject. Here's the Game's advice on tattoo placement:
Best Body Part
The forearm: This is a good spot because it doesn't hurt and it's a great place to show off a tat. The best place to get a tat has to do with the skin and location. Tender skin hurts like a b----. Tough skin doesn't hurt that much.
Bicep: Also a good spot because there isn't much pain and when you wear a "wife beater" they look dope.
Back of the neck: Again... not a lot of pain.
Worst Body Part
The hand: Hurts like hell! There is no fat and not a lot of muscle so it really hurts.
The face: Very painful location and once you get a tat on your face there ain't no hiding it!
The Game's new album, 'L.A.X.' is in stores now. Buy it on iTunes.

This guy doesn't need any more tattoos- he needs to be cremated.

Wait, this columnist really thinks that this ridiculous man should be giving advice on the "best place" to get a tattoo. Wow, that's like match.com offering dating advice from the members who have been with them the longest! I think the game needs some tattoo advice of his own, he doesn't look "hip", he looks like an inmate.

lulu88k.... yes he does look somewhat like an inmate, but if you havent noticed that is the look that is " in" right now, didnt you ever wonder where the trends came from ie; dicky pants and shirts, baggy pants hanging off your butt ( they take your belt and shoelaces from you in lock up), shoes loose and untied, and beaters? and of course tats,,, look around, stranger fashions have past,, personally, i think he carries it off quite well and the information Game provided was acurate and informative for tat novice, so really, be easy man,,lol

not at all.. your all pretty much ignorant. whether i like his music or not hes an icon to just as much people as those queer jonas brothers are.. so whats the diffrence between his and the punk rock tatooes with sleeves and shit thats even worse.. just accept what you dont like instead of being a dbag and hatin
