I couldn't resist the opportunity of bringing up NBA legend Moses Malone. Stuff like that doesn't happen everyday around here. It wasn't the 12 time All Star that inspired Nelly to get some new ink work however.
Rap star Nelly got the name Moses tattooed on his right arm because he so closely identifies with the Biblical leader. Nelly, real name Cornell Haynes Jr., grew up on the rough streets of St. Louis, Missouri, and was able to rise above his troubled upbringing to become one of the most successful rappers of all time. . .
Nelly explains, "I've got the name Moses on my inner right arm. I can relate to this story, as far as leading people out. That's how my boys (the St. Lunatics) and I felt about the St. Louis music scene. (When we hit it big) we felt like we were leading some of the top musical talent out of there, on to broader horizons." (source - - via Vibe Confidential)
Hey, it's a hell of a lot better than Chingy's "Daddy's Angel" tattoo.
