Our first bonus episode direct from Hong Kong! Our episode with Mark Nara was really well received so we thought we would follow that up with one of the first interviews Jye did in Hong Kong.  

Jye talks to Rob about his story and journey to tattooing and the role of creativity, environment and culture.

Make sure you check out Rob's work @blackoutbob 

- Founded in 2010, BLACKOUT is driven by the core belief that tattoo art is more than a book of tired designs and worn clichés. The soul of BLACKOUT is custom design, professionalism and singularity. Each tattoo is as unique as the person carrying it, and that is just as it should be.For years, tattooing endured the unwanted label of “low-brow art.” This was especially true in Hong Kong, where a casual, cookie-cutter attitude to tattooing was the norm. Our goal is to destroy that perception and provide the same exacting standards from leading studios across the world, giving Hong Kong a world-class option right in our backyard. Our goal is to make each tattoo precisely as good as it can be.
