Andrew of Keche fame has stated people with tattoos are not gangsters or criminals.
The singer, who has about 25 tattoos with majority of them on his left
arm, advised his fans not to despise people with tattoos.
“I have in a few instances encountered people who see you different
because you have tattoos. I am an artiste and I really appreciate
artistic creations; to me tattoos are nothing but a form of inspiration
in a way of appreciating art,” he stated.
“Aside art, tattoos are a way of showing loyalty to things that really
mean the world to you. Lest we forget tattoos have been around for
centuries and have served different purposes. So it is very important to
understand why someone inks rather than automatically judge them.”
According to him, the three most important tattoos on his body is his daughter’s name, the group name Keche and an eagle.
“These three mean a lot to me, my daughter’s name (Giovanna) reminds me
of that responsible role I have to play each day as a proud father. I
decided to tattoo KECHE because the group is our legacy. We’ve been
through a lot and anytime I look at it, it puts a smile on my face. For
the eagle, it represents my ambitions, the eagle is always flying high
and that’s exactly what I’m aiming for,” Andrew noted.
He hinted he will add more tattoos in the days ahead.
“Why not, if the need arises for me to ink more I will. I will always
love art but to the youth, my little advice is fully understand the
concept of tattoos before you ink so you don’t feel guilty later. It’s
more like a commitment to your girlfriend,” Andrew advised.
