Names are also popular among fans of the culture of Hip-Hop. Most of all, they also are very economical and easy to maintain. You could be creative with the font and the size or you could get a traditional tattoo of the name. Below is an example of the classic Bohemia tattoo with the traditional font.

As a matter of fact, this type of minimalistic tattoo relies on the creativity of the tattoo parlour. Most of all, on the sketch of the artist. From basic elements such as microphones, spray cans etc every element of Hip-Hop could be represented in this type.
