Nigerian artist AG Baby has ignited a buzz online with the unveiling of his latest tattoo. The renowned High Crooner took to social media to showcase a video of his fresh ink, which showcases a magnificent Koi fish. He captioned the post simply as “Eja Nla,” translating to “big fish” in Yoruba, a popular term in Nigerian street parlance denoting someone of significant influence.
This revelation follows closely on the heels of Adekunle Gold’s triumphant sold-out concert at the esteemed London OVO Arena. The event, reportedly attended by over 12,500 fans, left the singer visibly moved, a testament to his remarkable artistic evolution.
Fans have swiftly responded to the new tattoo, drawing parallels between the “Eja Nla” inscription and the artist’s recent accomplishments.
