Drake has gone and cemented his love for Lil Wayne in a big – and very permanent – way.

The 30-year-old rapper has added to his tattoo collection by getting an inking of the man who made him who he is today – Lil Wayne.

On Monday the Get It Together star shared a photo showing off his new tat of his mentor and legendary hip-hop artist on his forearm.

The picture is a full on head and shoulders of Lil Wayne on the back of Drake’s forearm – and whoever did it is quite the artist because it looks pretty damn good.

Want to see if from another angle? Here it is.

Drake has long been Lil Wayne’s protégé, with the Canadian rapper signing to his Young Money label in 2009.

The rapper’s post came a day after he mocked Jay-Z’s famous money phone lyric on hit album 4:44.

Footage emerged of the rapper joking around at the Houston Appreciation Weekend and putting two large stacks of money on both his ears.

‘Hello? What they say? Don’t put money in your ear? Oh, I didn’t hear that,’ he said.
