Scorcher talks us through his tattoos

They are painful enough on the arm or back, so why, oh why would anyone get a tattoo on their face? Well just ask British MC Scorcher:

"What kind of person gets a tattoo on their face? I'm that person!"

The grime artist, whose real name is Tayo Jarret, sports a lightning bolt design just below his right eye and has even more body art on his arms.

"You know how some people don't get tattoos in obvious places in case they want to go for job interviews? Well, that's never really been a concern of mine," said the north London lyricist.

The 24-year-old recently supported Snoop in concert, follows in the footsteps of US rapper Lil Wayne who has dozens of inkings on his face.

Scorcher, meanwhile says he is not ruling out getting more, even though his family do not approve.

"If something happens in my life that requires a tattoo then yeah, I'll get one. My mum wasn't really impressed with any of my tattoos actually to be fair!" he said.
