Lil Peep was a renowned American rapper and singer-songwriter. He passed at the young age of 21.
Throughout his life, he acquired numerous tattoos. Some held significant meaning, while others were more decorative or whimsical.
Star
Lil Peep was a Scorpio by birth. He had a tattoo that paid tribute to his zodiac sign. He was also a big fan of the comic character Hellboy.
After his first mixtape release, which brought him a lot of new fans, he got a tattoo of Lisa from The Simpsons. This tattoo was a show of his love for this character.
To symbolize luck and good fortune, Lil Peep chose a horseshoe tattoo. It also reminded him of his childhood when he used to cry often. The phrase ‘Cry Baby’ is inked above his eyebrows, signifying his emotional side.
His love for racing was evident with a race car flag tattoo on the left side of his head. He even featured in a song called ‘Chase My Racecar’ by Jaxxon Silva!
Clique
Lil Peep is often credited as a post-emo revival hip-hop scene pioneer. He had an extensive collection of tattoos, each carrying a special meaning.
One such tattoo was the term ‘Clique W/ A Cliques.’ A clique is a close-knit group, often found within schools, sports teams, or online communities. While clubs offer social benefits, they can also pose risks.
Cross of Saint Peter
Known also as the Petrine Cross, it’s an important Christian symbol and is associated with the Papacy.
While some view an upside-down cross as offensive, it’s a symbol of humility in Christianity, as requested by Peter before his crucifixion.
The Cross of Saint Peter can often be found on walls in Rome or on papal chairs, like the ones used by Blessed John Paul II during his Israel visit. However, horror movies often misrepresent this cross as a symbol of Satan or the Antichrist.
BFF Rice
Lil Peep had several meaningful tattoos. One was the “Crying Mickey Mouse,” symbolizing his mood and representing low-quality artwork.
He had a star tattoo under his right eye, symbolizing his fight against darkness and faith in God. Another star tattoo was behind his left ear.
His Roman numerals MCM and XCVI were inked on his knuckles, indicating his birth year, November 1, 1996.
On his left hand, he had a tattoo of a playing card suit, symbolizing luck, fortune, and possibly death. His left forearm featured a cobweb design, which is often associated with good luck.
