Drake gets emoji tattoo

Rapper Drake has treated himself to two new tattoos, choosing images found on the emoji keypad on iPhones.

The 27-year-old rapper opted for a number six, a possible reference to his new album title 'Views from The 6', as well as the image of a pair of praying hands inked onto his right forearm, reported Contactmusic.

The 'Take Care' hitmaker also chose a phrase for his left forearm, "Everything happens for a reason sweet thing."

Tattoo artist Dr Woo shared a picture of the designs on his Instagram page.

Drake is currently on tour with fellow rapper Lil Wayne.
