Richlove, a close friend of the late Yaa Baby, inked an artwork in honour of the deceased's short-lived life on her thigh.
She opted for a hand reaching out from the heavens to another hand beneath the skies. The hand above is likely to be Yaa Baby's, while hers was beneath, signifying that their friendship will transcend death.
The tattoo she highlighted in the video also came with the inscription 'You were a lesson I had to learn' and the date of the TikToker's death.
