Rapper Paul Wall gets tattoo of famed 'Be Someone' graffiti

HOUSTON (KTRK) -- The iconic "Be Someone" graffiti in Houston has been altered several times in the past few years, but someone always seems to fix it.

It's a message that thousands of people see every day when they drive along I-45. For some, like Houston rapper Paul Wall, it provides inspiration.

Wall likes it so much that he got it tattooed on his chest for his birthday. He shared the photo from G6 Tattoos on Instagram with the caption:

"Thank you to my bro @g6_tattoos. Got tatted on my birthday, working on finishing my chest. Had to get that #besomeone tatted on me. I get inspired every time I drive thru downtown and see it sprayed on the bridge," Wall wrote.

Wall was recently in the spotlight after he and rapper Baby Bash were arrested on felony drug charges.
