South African rapper Big Zulu recently shared a surprising tribute from a devoted fan who tattooed his portrait on their arm.
Taking to Instagram, Big Zulu posted a video and photo showcasing the tattoo, which sparked both admiration and humor among his followers.
In his caption, Big Zulu expressed heartfelt gratitude, saying, “Aw Qhawe lakith yey angaz nokuth ngithin wena kamkhulu👏🏿kodwa nje Uthando Lunye ❤️👏🏿Ngiyabonga kakhulu uthando,” which translates to, “Oh, our hero, I don’t even know what to say to you, grandson 👏🏿, but love is one ❤️👏🏿. I am truly grateful for the love.”
While the gesture was undeniably bold and heartfelt, the tattoo itself drew mixed reactions.
Many fans poked fun at the quality of the artwork, jokingly comparing it to the work of Rasta, the controversial South African artist known for his less-than-perfect portraits.
Despite the lighthearted criticism, Big Zulu’s appreciation for his fan’s efforts was evident.
