Sean Kingston Gets Nostalgic With New Mario Kart-Inspired Tattoo (PHOTOS)

Posted July 6, 2012 by Jason Brooks for Global Grind Staff

Sean Kingston is obviously a fan of Mario Kart. So much so, that the "Back 2 Life" singer actually got a mural dedicated to the go-kart racing video game on his forearm!

Designed by tattoo artist Peter Koskela, the design features a unique take on the original Mario Kart imagery because in true hip-hop fashion, Sean decided to "Pimp" Mario's ride and put him in a Porsche with a lot of heavy artillery.

The tattoo took a total of five hours, but the finished product came out so well that it was worth the $1,250 the tattoo cost!

Peter Koskela is famous in his own right in the L.A. area. He has not only worked with Mr. Kingston, but Chris Brown and The Game as well.
