Drake is still not over the the tattoo his dad Dennis Graham got of the rapper’s face five years ago.
The hip hop mogul, 35, took to Instagram on Monday to poke fun of the old ink, posting the tattoo and tagging his dad with the caption: ‘I was just sitting here thinking why you do me like this we family,’ with three laughing out crying emojis.
His musician father, 67, wasn’t upset with the playful jab, explaining that he tried to fix the artwork: ‘Hahaha I had 16 people to try and straighten this out, they’re hurting me.’

He then added a couple of tender words for his son, writing, ‘I love you and miss you.’
The ink, which resides on the upper part of Graham’s shoulder, depicts a younger Drake without his beard and with a short haircut.
Graham senior first revealed the tattoo of his son’s face – done by artist Money Mike – in 2017.
