Which ‘Black Ink Crew Chicago’ Star Recently Got Engaged?

When you publicly embarrass your baby mother what do you do to keep her? Get ENGAGED! That's what +VH1's ‘Black Ink Crew Chicago’ Star Don did. 

Don's son mother, Ashley quickly went to Instagram to share her news of marrying the man of her dreams. 

As we all know Don smashed Charmaine in the bathroom of the tattoo shop in the first episode. She claimed she wasn't aware that he was in a relationship prior to hook-up and based off the last episode she is having a hard time pulling away after Ashley approached her about the hook-up. 

ForeverMeah says... to each its own. Congrats!

Black Ink Crew Chicago: Who's Rachel Leigh’s Baby Daddy?

Yes, I too enjoy the ratchets and last night was no different. +VH1  introduced us to a new spin-off show called Black Ink Crew Chicago.  

Taking its viewers into the life of Chicago's prominent tattoo shop, 9Mag. 

I must admit it was very refreshing looking at these fine brothers handle business and surprisingly they are not only good looking they can actually TATTOO (what a concept).

The show opens up giving a brief insight of each cast member and what they do for the company. Something that was clearly missing from Black Ink New York. 

The cast includes:

Ryan is the owner of 9Mag, a prominent Chicago tattoo shop. Ryan created 9Mag as a legacy to his late sister and niece. Ryan's drive and ambition are the strength of 9Mag, and he'll do whatever he can to keep his family together.

Kat is the hottest female tattoo artist in the Chicago area. She is the "little sister" of the shop and has the guys wrapped around her finger. Phor and Kat flirt shamelessly, but Kat finds it hard to commit because of her ambitious career goals.

Phor is a 9Mag tattoo artist, but his true love lies with music. He burns the candle at both ends - tattooing, spending time in the studio, and, of course, partying with his 9Mag family. He's quite the ladies' man, but he has his eye on Kat.

Charmaine is 9Mag's event planner. Her flirtatious nature creates tension and drama in the shop, especially between Don and his girlfriend, Ashley. But that doesn't stop Charmaine from tearing it up on AND off the dance floor. This Southern belle is a fireball and definitely knows how to capture a room.

Don is Phor's little brother, best friend, and assistant. Don has a great sense of humor and a big heart. Though he gets into his fair share of trouble, Don tries to maintain his focus so he can provide for his girlfriend, Ashley, and their two year old son, DJ.

Danielle is 9Mag's "good girl" receptionist who strives to keep it together when things are far from perfect. She is Charmaine's cousin, and Kat's former college roommate. While Danielle has her life together, she definitely knows how to throw down and party with the best of them. And, if you mess with her girls, watch out!


Van is Ryan's former business rival, and got his start tattooing in his mom's basement. Over time, he developed an incredible reputation as an artist. He took it to another level when he partnered with Ryan, his previous competition. Van is the "big brother" of the group and always tries to hold it down for the 9Mag family.

You can catch the first episode her if you missed it

Did anyone notice how they deliberately omitted who's the baby daddy of  Ryan's ex-girlfriend Rachel Leigh 3-year old son?

I immediately went to 'black twitter' and inquired about the mystery sperm donor only to be shocked that it was R&B singer Jeremih! 

As he mentioned with Billboard last November, the singer felt that many of his struggles toward the end of 2014 partially stemmed from an ongoing fight he had been engaging in to get rights to see his then 2-year-old son:

Jeremih says he’s ultimately responsible for his stutter-steps, explaining that he was consumed by a court battle with his child’s mother while “Don’t Tell ‘Em” was rising. “I stopped caring about being Jeremih over the last few months,” he says. “A lot of people don’t know I have a 2-year-old son. His mom wasn’t allowing me to see him, and it was messing with me. I was internally unbalanced. But I just got out of that trial and I won.” (source)

Not sure why they called him a rapper on the show but I love the fact that Ryan has stepped in as the father figure to Jeremih's son. Based on Jeremih's statement with Billboard I take it its 3-sides to this story. Especially since they blurred the faces of the son, maybe he didn't approve of his child being on the show. 

Which show would you rather watch? #BlackInkCrew #BlackInkNYC #BlackInkChicago

Ryan is truly a gem. Faced with the death of his sister he maintaining a leveled head and trying to raise his son with Rachel. Rachel on the other hand seems like she only love Ryan as a friend but probably will go from 0 to 100 if he ever decided to move on.

Rachel can't get over Ryan cheated when she was pregnant with their child even though she went and got pregnant with Jeremih. 

Kat --- umm, not sure yet. I need to see her more to form my opinion of her. I'll just say she's a great tattooist. 

Phor -- is hilarious. I believe i've came across a music video he did in the past. I love his style and clearly he and Kat had sex or will soon. 

Charmaine wants to be someone's wife but having sex on TV in the bathroom with your colleague (Don) just might not be the best way to go about getting that ring.

Don needs to leave his baby mother cause now the world know you ate the booty of your co-worker and kissed your girl within 30-minutes of the show. Don is sexy but not so smart. 

Danielle and Van  don't remember much about them but I'm sure it'll be something to discuss soon.

Bottom line I am all drawn in and can't wait to watch next weeks episode. It's good to see Chiraq in another light besides the violence.

NY Tattoo Shop 'Black Ink' Sued After Woman Suffers Nasty Infection

Now this isn't my first time hearing about Vh1's Black Ink Tattoo Studio in Harlem getting sued by clients due to "jacked-up" tattoos. To their defense its never done by the actually cast members of the reality show but by someone else that apparently "works" for Caesar. 

Sources has recently reported, Loni Tate, 31, said a trip to Harlem’s Black Ink Tattoo Studio, which is featured on a reality TV show, ended with her being hospitalized with an infection and permanent scarring. 

“I have never been through anything like that,” the tattoo aficionado said. 

The Harlem native got her first tattoo — a large Day of the Dead skull on her back — in 2012.

“I just thought they were cool and it’s a good way for self-expression,” she said.

Tate said she went to the Lenox Ave. shop for her sixth tattoo because she’s a fan of “Black Ink Crew,” the VH1 show about the business. 

She’d gotten one there on her arm of a butterfly flying out of a skull — “I like skulls,” she said — in January 2014. 

“I was very happy with it,” she said. 

But her return trip three months later for a custom rose design on her forearm by another artist turned into a much thornier experience, she said. 

The artist, Kelvin Cepeda, said he had to leave for “an event” about three hours in, and told her to come back the next day so he could finish up, Tate said. 

She did, and said she was surprised to see he had a tattoo gun already set up when she walked in. 

“They normally open it and set it up in front of you,” she said.
The red on black and black on red design came out just as she hoped, but three days later, “I was in excruciating pain,” Tate said.She said she texted Cepeda, who told her she’d feel better in “a couple of days.” 

But Tate said she felt much, much worse.
“I felt like my arm was on fire, like I’d been burned,” she said. 

The ink then started swelling and oozing, and Tate wound up getting hospitalized for four days while doctors battled a deep infection.Tate said she now believes Cepeda used a dirty tattoo pen on her.She’s suing the shop for unspecified damages, while her lawyer, Mark Shirian, is calling for stricter regulations for city tattoo shops. 

“People need to understand that a tattoo procedure is the equivalent of undergoing minor surgery,” Shirian said. 

“More stringent regulations must be adopted immediately in order to protect the health and well-being of New Yorkers.” 

This is the third lawsuit brought against Black Ink. 

Another action earlier this month involved permanent scarring left on the left breast of a woman from South Carolina who’d asked Black Ink artists to cover up her old unicorn and horseshoe tattoos with fruits and vegetables to reflect her new interest in cooking, PIX11 reported. 

Tate hasn't gotten any tats since her incident, but said she will.“Don't be afraid to get a tattoo — just be cautious,” she said. 

“Make sure the artist opens everything in front of you and everything is sterile.” 

Black Ink did not respond to requests for comment. 

“Black Ink Crew” is scheduled to return for a third season on VH1 in August. 

The show’s website says the “docu-series follows the lives of Ceaser, Dutchess, Sassy, Puma and O’ S--t, as they work, live, party, and hang out in Harlem.”
