Black Ink Crew: Compton cast this season:
· InkArtMusic shop owner KP enters this new season with a clear vision for himself post pandemic shutdown and social unrest caused by systemic racism. He is determined to build on the opportunity that has been given to him and create a movement in the city through the art of tattooing by celebrating the talent, passion and rich culture of the community.
· Lemeir is set to open a second food truck business after the success of "Happy Ice" on Melrose, alongside welcoming a new member to his growing family with fiancée Danielle. As his personal life continues to grow, the love for tattooing has taken a back seat after a rocky start alongside KP and his IAM Compton shop.
· Nessie is back and her voice is stronger than ever. The past couple of years have given her time to focus on her craft and make a name for herself. Still possessing feelings from all of the drama that ensued with the crew right before lockdown, she has mixed feelings about returning to the shop.
· Ink Drippin' has refocused his energy on his family and after a near death experience, he has put the pieces of himself back together and resorted to holistic healing.
· Shop receptionist and a long-time friend of bossman KP, Barbie is back to bring a whole lot of style, class and sass to the crew.
· Unlike any other artist on the IAM team, Vudu Dahl is a talent anomaly in the tattoo industry. When the IAM shop was put on hold, she took her talents elsewhere in the meantime.
· Alana returns this season with a whole new outlook. After moving to Arizona with her new boyfriend, a health scare causes her to move back home to LA and start her life over again.
· KP's loyal and devoted cousin Tim is determined to take KP's dream for the shop to the next level as he lives and breathes the IAM Compton brand and will do anything to protect it.
· KP brings in Star to deal with the temperamental artists and to capitalize on the connections she has within LA and the tattoo industry.
