ArnoldIsDead: The Rapper Who Got a $20 Anne Frank Face Tattoo

YouTuber SunnyV2 recently dropped a new video looking at Xanarchy’s ArnoldIsDead (aka Xan Frank), the rapper who got a $20 Anne Frank face tattoo.”

As per the description on SunnyV’2 video: “In August 2017, Arnold Gutierrez got a face tattoo that shocked even the most seasoned SoundCloud rappers – Anne Frank on his cheek. What was the motive behind getting it? How has the tattoo affected his life? What impact has the tattoo had upon his music career? Has it been a positive or a negative? Does he regret it? We lined up a full interview to get the answer to each of this questions, where ArnoldIsDead aka Xan Frank told the full story of the Anne Frank face tattoo. This is, The Rapper Who Got A $20 Anne Frank Face Tattoo.”

The rapper shot to viral fame when images of his bold new ink surfaced on Instagram, courtesy of fellow Xanarchy crew member, Xanxiety. However, the tattoo has sparked controversy. Not everyone sees the homage as an appropriate nod to the Holocaust icon. One critic on Twitter didn’t hold back, questioning, “How out of touch and disrespectful do you have to be to get Anne Frank’s portrait tattooed on your face?”
