"See I tattoo your brain / Gillie's on your mind, and I'm talking permanently," is one of Gillie Da Kid's overtures to his ink-laced lover in the "Tattoo" video. With quick-hitting synths and Jeremih's syrupy hooks, "Tattoo" is a launching pad for Gillie's witty love-drunk bars, and its accompanying video spotlights them quite playfully.
Directed by Erica Hayes and Gina Harrell, the "Tattoo" video not only has heavily tatted vixens, but a special emphasis on the wild artwork that people get inked onto their bodies. Tribal graphics drape the set, creating a tattoo shop-like ambiance. The lighting and colors for the video are darkened throughout, giving Gillie and Jeremih visually artistic looks—at certain points, each doesn't look fully human, but instead as if they were stencils shaded in by a tattoo artist. Watch "Tattoo" above for a love-struck, but visually dope take on tattoo culture.
