This is another tattoo that's a little surreal to look at. Very few people would dispute Eminem's worthiness as a superstar. He's one of the biggest rap artists who's ever lived; still as capable of selling out stadiums and multi-platinum albums now as he was when he first emerged all the way back in 1996. There's only ever been one Slim Shady, and his ability to turn social and political commentary into relatable rap tracks is a skill that precious few others have ever been able to master.
To understand why he has rabbit ears in this tattoo, though, you need to have seen his semi-biographical film '8-Mile' in which Eminem plays a young upstart freestyler named 'rabbit'. He never took it as far as actually wearing bunny ears in the movie, but then art is all about interpretation and creativity.
Over the years, weve seen so many food trends come and go, such as ramen burgers, matcha, and spiked ice-cream. Nowadays, were seeing another trend making waves in the food industry. How many times today have you seen an Instagram photo of a scoop of black ice cream, or a cup of black yogurt, or hamburgers with black buns? Indeed, the charcoal trend has taken the world by storm.
So, what gives your latte that deep black shade? Activated charcoal, or coconut ash, is produced by heating coconut shells to insanely high temperatures until theyre burnt to a crisp. The ashes are then increased in size by steaming at high temperatures. Through this process, the ashes become a strong detoxifier, mostly because they become extra absorbent. This product may be purchased in pill form, and promises to alleviate hangovers, minimize the effects of food poisoning, and fight the visible signs of aging.
Activated charcoal is said to boost ones energy as a result of decreasing toxins in the body. However, no evidence proves that detoxifying can lead to increased energy. Also, while it can help cure a hangover, it doesnt necessarily remove alcohol from your blood. It is also said to aid in debloating your stomach because it cleanses your colon but again, this all anecdotal and isnt supported by scientific evidence as of yet. All we can say for sure is that it is a proven detoxifier.
