I give the guy a lot of respect. He took ownership of his mistakes, he seems legitimately upset about it, and he’s trying to make things better. I’ll give anyone respect who does that.
But while he was giving that honest explanation (which I respected as well whole-heartedly) he was tattooing like he was trying to beat the world record at an Etch A Sketch competition. And the end result, is an absolute atrocity.
I really like Taji. I really cannot understand why some peoples opinion of him differs than mine. Dude is super polite, funny, and comes of as a genuinely kind soul. Keep up the good work my man, 5 stars.
people watch vice and expect the journos to be smug arseholes who don't give a shit about anyone and that's where the entertainment is. This guy actually redeems vice again for me. I stopped watching a year ago when I saw a piece where the 'host/journo' teased a sloth in the amazon calling him "stupid looking" and completely shat on a researcher who did actual proper research work. Taji is waaay too genuine for vice. Just go solo channel already.
Nate’s my brother-in-law. I haven’t spoken to him in a few years and I didn’t know he was being featured in a VICE video until someone sent this to me. He is genuinely a friendly guy at heart with a rough exterior. He did have self-inflicted trials and tribulations; I’m happy to see he’s doing well and learning that life can give you a second chance if you’re willing to take it. Thanks you VICE, for helping Nate make amends and right his wrongs.
This is the ONLY guy I’ve seen take responsibility for his bad reviews. And I’ve been binge watching these for hours. Despite trying to keep them separate, your personal life can definitely effect your professional life. The repercussions are just much more relevant and severe when your profession is permanently scarring another strangers body who’s not only paying you but trusting you. It’s tough but I’m glad he’s holding himself accountable and moving forward. Best of luck, Nate.
Yup. Everyone else has basically gone one of two ways: "Yeah people are cruel uneducated plebs" or, "Welp, can't please everybody." If you think most of your reviews are 1 star because people are just assholes, you probably need to get that narcissistic personality disorder checked out. If you think most of your reviews are 1 star simply because you can't please everyone.. my dude, it doesn't sound like you're pleasing anyone. This argument only works when it's controversial, but your reviews are damn fucking near unanimous lmao
My friend got a tattoo years ago from this guy. It came out really well and he was super cool. He even predicted my friend passing out bc he didn’t eat prior! It was hilarious.
You're obviously not a shit expert either, because that tattoo looked nothing like shit. If your shits look like that, kindly proceed to a doctor at your immediate convenience.
Nate has been my favorite interviewed person so far. I feel really awful and disappointed that people treated him unfairly and didn't stick around to make sure he was okay. Wishing him all the best. Really the most heary warming episode for me
To be fair, yes people have bad days but if it’s a bad day that ruins a tattoo that you’re going to have for life, of course you’re going to be mad, no? I personally would never get a tattoo, but imagine making a decision that “I want this on my body for life” only for the guy to screw it up cuz he’s having a bad day. That’d be pretty bad
Tattoos are permanent and his job is to deliver a good quality tattoo. His costumers aren't there to check up on him, they are there to get a tattoo. And to be honest his work is very poor quality judging by the tattoo he gave Taji
@@naanpizza3881 I mean but to make him suffer for it the rest of his life and strive to ruin his business on it, that's pretty heartless. I'm sure he would have offered a free cover up if they would have came to him directly about the problem, or maybe said something when they were idk still there? Also, if they didn't feel comfortable having him fix the tattoo, I'm sure there are plenty other artists that would cover it up for free. Yes, even tattoo artists are human and even the best artists in the world have made their own blunders. Try to treat people as you'd want to be treated and remember that they're still human at the end of the day.
yep. he made no excuses for himself. so many people would rather blame something or someone else for their actions and behaviour but he just owned it. that's big
Larrymcjones could be that, or could just be human-being for “I literally do not give a fuck what tattoo you have or what you choose to do with your life, My only wish is that you give me your money then get the fuck out of my face and shop as soon as possible” But I digress
my question is.. why would you tatoo yourself a realistic representation of life people, scenes or whatever. Don't suppose it to be an experience drawn in the skin? a piece of art that make sense for you every time you see it? If I wanted to have a photography in my skin I would have it on the wallet. Art is objective though..
Exactly. I'm not tearing into this video, the host, the tattooist, or the tattoo...BUT that moment when the buzz meets blood and ink IS NOT the best time to begin such a direct line of questioning, regardless of the facts of the case. Nobody needs to be squirming at that point, not the guy in the chair or the guy with the tattoo gun.
It was an interview though and the artist knew exactly what he was getting into, look at the rapport between the two and you can tell it is honest and well meaning.
You having a camera crew while doing this defeats the purpose. If the camera Was on me I would make sure I would always do my best work! Having a Hidden camera would be more accurate.
Idk man, I don’t think I’d be able to figure out what that tattoo was if I didn’t hear you describing it. No offense or anything. But I’m glad you like it.
When I first got my tattoo, it looked a bit muddy, but, I cared for it really well, and I absolutely loved how it turned out when it was totally healed.
He broke my heart. I had my own business for many years it was phenomenal, it was successful, I had the best reputation and then my health took a hit and I wasn't feeling well.. a few bad months made my reputation plummet quickly.. I'm actually tearing up right now just writing this because it still hurts my heart. I got burned out mentally and physically and all of my hard work that I put in for all those years went down the tubes quickly.. I ended up losing everything.. my health, my business, my marriage, my career, my income and almost my life 😔 unless people have owned their own business, they have no idea how stressful it can be and how risky and fragile it is.. I wish people would understand before putting bad reviews out there. There is a reason for everything.. we are all human and all have good and bad days.
That's not how tattoo's work. It's not a fucking ink blot test! Did it look like the picture he started with? Judging by the 5 stars, probably. Get your head out of your ass!
Even though he asked a lot of questions. You have to remember its gonna be on his skin forever. You don't want to regret it. Personally I dislike the tattoo.
Luckily for you then it's not your arm... People don't get a tattoo to please others. Those that do are silly. It could be the world's worst tattoo to some but to others it's all they ask for.
sup bruh That doesn’t fucking apply if the tattoo is unreadable. A prerequisite for getting a tattoo is that you want people to know what the fuck it’s supposed to be. This guy is lucky he only got a black and grey; Lord knows what could’ve happened if he had gone for full color.
+VICE Why don’t you use a hidden camera and than see what these places are really like. Most businesses will be on their best behavior if they know they are being filmed.
@@giuliarose6109 it isnt lol can i just steal ipads idea same concept and everything and namr i banana no i cant it isnt how tjis world works if you think stealing someones idea is how the world works you are kinda fcked up
it's not stolen. Vice was filming this video before halloween. PHilip's first video was a month ago. I don't know how you can be that ignorant. If you watch the video, the facts are clear. Both Vice and Philip had the idea of creating "a worst reviewed" series around fall.
But it is probably true to his portfolio - you can't dock a guy for producing the work he has shown. If the work is not the same as the portfolio, then you've got a complaint - but not liking the style is not a 'very bad tattoo'.
dean s the point is it’s not a good representation of how an actual interaction with a customer/service would’ve been done. Everyone performs better under a microscope
This company yelp is very very rude on chat the agent name was Brandon R. he left me on hold for 30 mins. Trying to be nice and explain that I was not just a online business but a local business also. After, a few exchanged questions he got silent and started ignoring me. I would not recommend them to no business.
You guys saw Philip Solo's videos, liked his original and creative idea, saw the views that came with such new content, and completely ripped him off without any credit at all.
Pleased to say, I just looked Fat Kat up and the shop now has 4.5/5 stars!!!! Go Nate!!! The most humble owner so far. I get vibes that he was maybe dealing with an addiction possibly? He's really taken ownership of his mistakes and righted his wrongs. I love this.
It is, people here don't understand it what he wanted to it's good. This is showing the most simple tattoo an artist can do. What you need to see is something a little more complex to determine how good they are. His tattoo is apprentice worthy and quality
I do feel sad for whatever Nate was going through that made him lose his artistic vision to get all those negative reviews, but come on. All those stencils he sketched out were messy and all over the place, and that finished product was even worse. I would be Nate’s friend, but I wouldn’t be his client.
He said it was great and everything he could ask for and i just cringed. That tattoo was nasty, so gross with the thick lines and overdone shading and the surfer is blocky not a real person it’s just not a good tattoo and im sure the first person he shows it to will make him regret getting it.
Yeah I would not get a tattoo here. I couldn’t figure out what was going on on that stencil, it looked like he actually did it free hand but I couldn’t tell. Seems like a nice guy, but when I’m getting tattooed I wanna see precision, someone who takes their time, cleaner line work, etc
The only problem I have with him is that he’s way too nice! He gives almost everyone four stars. If people are giving these business bad reviews for a reason.If people are being ripped off they should be held accountable.
It's easy to hold a stigma of a person who holds bad ratings online and then come in looking for that in the person, so it's much better to know that Vice didn't choose to join that same game, rather looking at what good the tattooist holds.
I mean he was wearing a flame shirt, I blame him more than the artist. I thought some of the shading looks like shit but then I realize that's what he said was okay. Maybe not the best artist but I was expecting something way worse. I think a different tattoo would have suited this idea better, something slightly difficult that looks amazing and only a decent tattoo artist could accomplish. I could see a decent tattoo artist go yeah no, I'm not doing this
Vice chooses the best people to do the reporting. Watching Taji in tattoo parlors and strip clubs is funny before anything even starts. His self-awareness helps a lot. He knows how he comes off. This is a GREAT episode.
I dont even know what Im looking at. Is the guy bending over? Is the surfboard going the wrong direction? Does the wave have a second smaller wave on top of it? Its one of the worst tattoos i have ever seen. He likes it though, so I guess thats all that matters. I just wish I could figure out whats going on. I can't stop looking at it trying to figure out what the surfer is doing and where his body parts are located.
No clip cord sleeve, stencil stuff on his work area, subpar linework and patchy shading. I understand that your heart is in the right place man, but as a tattooer, its just troubling to see some of those hazards at a shop. If this is his maximum effort with a camera crew stopping by its troubling to think how he works when the cameras aren’t rolling.
Surfers head got lost in the shading behind him and the waves hardly look like waves but 5/5 because he told me about his emotions. Lets lure more people in for shit tattoo's because his emotions not because he can give a good tattoo.
TopRamen yeah thats the problem, I understand that art is subjective but tattooing is a technical skill and you can have an objective bad or unsafe tattoo. I wish more people would stress that instead of fluffing up bad tattoos with stories
Seems like they’re ripping off PhilipSoloTV, who had a video on the front page of Reddit a couple weeks ago eating at the worst reviewed restaurant in his city.
its hard to be completely original in today's world. someone somewhere probably thought up or has done your idea and because the other person didnt get as much attention they feel stolen from whether or not prior knowledge of said idea was found. plus if you think about it if that were the case there would only be one of everything and something like this wouldnt exist to begin with. if you cant be the first be the best as the old saying goes
Devin Koks that's not the point. Vice is a repeat offender of this same with buzzfeed. I remember when vice was an awesome source of unbiased news and reporting
This guy reminds me of a buddy that I work with. He has a shady past with drugs and everything that comes with them, but he has a heart of gold and he’s a good guy. People really can change.
That tattoo was pretty awful honestly, not what I'd expect from someone who's been at it for as long as that guy. The line work was pretty blurry, which for a simple ass tattoo like that is pretty damn bad. That surfer looks like a stick figure... You should of gotten him to do something with at least a little skill so you could see the depth of his talent. Just judging from what I saw though I wouldn't want him to ever tattoo me.
3:47 the surf boards backwards (the fin should be same side as wave) the surfers all fudged up but Nate seems like a good guy who went thru some tough times.
hmmmmmmm STD? Are you sure you're not getting tattoos for different reasons? Yelp is the popular new dating site? I think you're misinterpreting the word "prick".
the only way youre getting an STD from a tattoo is when you get your penis tattoed right after he tattooed someone elses infected genitals @@WakeUpDonni333

@@slightly6006 you are correct that this video was posted on the 29th. HOwever, for vice's video the conceptions, the actual filming, and editing were concieved before halloween. You can tell because of the posters at the shop. Both Phillip and Vice had the same idea for this series around the fall time.
It’s time to set a reminder! A new episode of One Star Reviews is airing on October 22nd.

Hendrix Mane I onc got a tattoo from Nate. Asked for a horse and I got a portrait of Sara Jessica Parker
Even though he asked a lot of questions. You have to remember its gonna be on his skin forever. You don't want to regret it. Personally I dislike the tattoo.
Yes it's very displeasing to the eye
Luckily for you then it's not your arm...
People don't get a tattoo to please others. Those that do are silly.
It could be the world's worst tattoo to some but to others it's all they ask for.
i mean he technically didnt do it to please himself either because it was for his job so i say ruining your skin for your job stupid and silly
It's not for me but i think nate gave taji what he asked for.
You misspelled rrmeber
*Umm, that tattoo is insanely ugly...*
*You can hardly even tell what it is, if you didn’t already know...*
I can barely tell what it is knowing what it is.
in the eyes of an artist it can be different from what you see. ever thought of that?
Was just going to say, I had to pause the video and I still dont see it lmao. There is no depth, it's all one shade.
sup bruh That doesn’t fucking apply if the tattoo is unreadable. A prerequisite for getting a tattoo is that you want people to know what the fuck it’s supposed to be. This guy is lucky he only got a black and grey; Lord knows what could’ve happened if he had gone for full color.
I skipped to the end, I don’t know what it is. What is it?
+VICE Why don’t you use a hidden camera and than see what these places are really like. Most businesses will be on their best behavior if they know they are being filmed.
Jonathan even still lol your gonna get a feel for the owner show or no show
It's illegal to do so in most places
Most cases this would be illegal, I'm studying journalism and we just learned about this
That’s illegal

@@giuliarose6109 it isnt lol can i just steal ipads idea same concept and everything and namr i banana no i cant it isnt how tjis world works if you think stealing someones idea is how the world works you are kinda fcked up
it's not stolen. Vice was filming this video before halloween. PHilip's first video was a month ago. I don't know how you can be that ignorant. If you watch the video, the facts are clear. Both Vice and Philip had the idea of creating "a worst reviewed" series around fall.
OxygenPeople Philip posted his video first so they technically stole it
Bro that tattoo is very bad the lines are shaky and not strong enough and the shading just looks weird
But it is probably true to his portfolio - you can't dock a guy for producing the work he has shown. If the work is not the same as the portfolio, then you've got a complaint - but not liking the style is not a 'very bad tattoo'.
Nah it’s unique and nice man. It might not be a traditional tattoo in terms of what you mentioned but I think it looks much better than I expected.
Of course he knows he’s being filmed so he’s going to make sure he’s 100% by the book.
Would’ve been more interesting if it was hidden camera
Exactlyy it would make more sense to do that exposing those true colours
How do you expect him to do that ? And catch good footage with one take?
dean s the point is it’s not a good representation of how an actual interaction with a customer/service would’ve been done.
Everyone performs better under a microscope
Too bad that's illegal

It's not really original or creative, though. Ya'll really too lazy to type "worst rated" on youtube?

Pleased to say, I just looked Fat Kat up and the shop now has 4.5/5 stars!!!! Go Nate!!! The most humble owner so far. I get vibes that he was maybe dealing with an addiction possibly? He's really taken ownership of his mistakes and righted his wrongs. I love this.
No way would that dude touch me, that is a bad tattoo.
but is what he wanted
It was but he likes it so I guess
It fits a guy wearing a blue flame shirt thougj
It is, people here don't understand it what he wanted to it's good. This is showing the most simple tattoo an artist can do. What you need to see is something a little more complex to determine how good they are. His tattoo is apprentice worthy and quality
I wouldn't say that's a bad tattoo... Just a bad tattoo choice.
Its funny how the tattoo artist has 1 star ln the right of his forehead!
After this guys review he's now gonna get another half a star added
It’s on his left side
Left
@@kingj728 ur right
and its 1 star quality
Oh man... That Guy Fieri shirt though
If guy was a crip
First time ever the tattoo artist told his life story during the tattoo
I do feel sad for whatever Nate was going through that made him lose his artistic vision to get all those negative reviews, but come on. All those stencils he sketched out were messy and all over the place, and that finished product was even worse. I would be Nate’s friend, but I wouldn’t be his client.
my thoughts exactly
The way he actually did the tattoo looked really rushed out and bad. Feels like this tattoo is going to 'disappear' rather fast
I agree he seems like a cool dude,but i think he should stay away from tattooing.
He said it was great and everything he could ask for and i just cringed. That tattoo was nasty, so gross with the thick lines and overdone shading and the surfer is blocky not a real person it’s just not a good tattoo and im sure the first person he shows it to will make him regret getting it.
Yeah I would not get a tattoo here. I couldn’t figure out what was going on on that stencil, it looked like he actually did it free hand but I couldn’t tell. Seems like a nice guy, but when I’m getting tattooed I wanna see precision, someone who takes their time, cleaner line work, etc
Okay, a bad haircut can be recovered from, but HIV? Risky.

Because you are CHRONICALLY HIGH!!
The only problem I have with him is that he’s way too nice! He gives almost everyone four stars. If people are giving these business bad reviews for a reason.If people are being ripped off they should be held accountable.

Your probably watching on an android
It's good to see vice lifting someone up instead of knocking them down for once. The tattoo is a little odd, but hey, it's the design Taji chose.
Fall off the Map so w
MrThehandsoap woohoo, look at you, you wrote a comment!
It's easy to hold a stigma of a person who holds bad ratings online and then come in looking for that in the person, so it's much better to know that Vice didn't choose to join that same game, rather looking at what good the tattooist holds.
Fall off the Map they copied this series from philipsolotv
The size of your weiner is both little and odd
I thought he was lighting up a joint while driving as the sacred ritual😆
Lmao same here man
Is taji going for an early 2000s virgin vibe with that outfit 😂😂😂
That is probably one of the worst tattoos I’ve ever seen 😂 and he gave it a five star 🤦♂️
i think he was still high
He wanted that. It's the design that looks bad.
I mean he was wearing a flame shirt, I blame him more than the artist. I thought some of the shading looks like shit but then I realize that's what he said was okay. Maybe not the best artist but I was expecting something way worse. I think a different tattoo would have suited this idea better, something slightly difficult that looks amazing and only a decent tattoo artist could accomplish. I could see a decent tattoo artist go yeah no, I'm not doing this
I mean that’s what he wanted 🤷🏽♂️😂 just the design looks horrible as hell
In my opinion, This White boy paid a lot from Vice
So he ended up saying its great tatto
imagine getting a tattoo for a *RUclips video*
Z that isn’t even 10 minutes :|
do it for the vice

YO FR THAT’S WHAT I THOUGHT TOO. Papa bless he’s among us
Judging only on the quality of the finished product, I completely understand the 1 star reviews. That tattoo is a blotchy mess.
Jonathan Pritchard right it looks awful. And I can’t imagine how bad it’ll age.
soundcloud.com/steez777/s-a-y-l-e-s-s
Jonathan Pritchard ikr the last pic they show it’s all just a faded black mess
Thought the same
It wasn’t that bad, it wasn’t great but remember, he let the client dictate the overall design. Food for thought
I feel like they understand eachothers energies
Just got done binge watching the ENTIRE series the past 48 hours, and I NEED MORE. 😁
The composition of that tattoo is horrendous. Even if it were perfectly executed it would be unreadable
The worst time to talk about his bad reviews... while getting the tattoo lmfao
Shoutout for PhilipSoloTV? HELLO?!
Edward Xu oh shit thefinebros v2
Vice chooses the best people to do the reporting. Watching Taji in tattoo parlors and strip clubs is funny before anything even starts. His self-awareness helps a lot. He knows how he comes off. This is a GREAT episode.
I couldn't even tell where the surfer was
there was a surfer?
He butchered your tattoo LMAO
*5 STARS!!!*
dude is wearing the typical "i get bullied" shirt.
I’m screaming 😂😂😂
A White shirt?
The blue flame shirt?
1 star review on the Guy Fieri Shirt
He still gets bullied
As an artist, Taji getting all crazy with his tattoo idea as Nate draws would drive me bonkers but it’s so freakin funny
That tattoo is not good lmao. I know you didn't want to say it because of the video and all, but it is actually a terrible piece of work.
I dont even know what Im looking at. Is the guy bending over? Is the surfboard going the wrong direction? Does the wave have a second smaller wave on top of it? Its one of the worst tattoos i have ever seen. He likes it though, so I guess thats all that matters. I just wish I could figure out whats going on. I can't stop looking at it trying to figure out what the surfer is doing and where his body parts are located.
Even the stencil has the surfboard going backwards into the wave, while the dudes bent over it the wrong way. Or am I seeing that wrong?
It’s not really his fault. Vice dude wanted something weird
Gooniegoogle honestly tho lol
Like an ink blot test.. i see a horse.. that is i guess surfing? Wave looks like a tree.. I dont see any birds
No clip cord sleeve, stencil stuff on his work area, subpar linework and patchy shading. I understand that your heart is in the right place man, but as a tattooer, its just troubling to see some of those hazards at a shop. If this is his maximum effort with a camera crew stopping by its troubling to think how he works when the cameras aren’t rolling.
Surfers head got lost in the shading behind him and the waves hardly look like waves but 5/5 because he told me about his emotions. Lets lure more people in for shit tattoo's because his emotions not because he can give a good tattoo.
If anything this guy proves why yelp is a shitty service lol.
TopRamen yeah thats the problem, I understand that art is subjective but tattooing is a technical skill and you can have an objective bad or unsafe tattoo. I wish more people would stress that instead of fluffing up bad tattoos with stories
Valid point, you cant really knock the tattoo because he went to a known 1 star tattoo shop but you're right with hygiene
@@TheJonRom Great story; Meh Tattoo.

EDIT: Lot of triggered people out here lol
Steal ideas ?
Seems like they’re ripping off PhilipSoloTV, who had a video on the front page of Reddit a couple weeks ago eating at the worst reviewed restaurant in his city.
@@Top-Scandal i agree
its hard to be completely original in today's world. someone somewhere probably thought up or has done your idea and because the other person didnt get as much attention they feel stolen from whether or not prior knowledge of said idea was found. plus if you think about it if that were the case there would only be one of everything and something like this wouldnt exist to begin with. if you cant be the first be the best as the old saying goes
Devin Koks that's not the point. Vice is a repeat offender of this same with buzzfeed. I remember when vice was an awesome source of unbiased news and reporting
This guy reminds me of a buddy that I work with. He has a shady past with drugs and everything that comes with them, but he has a heart of gold and he’s a good guy. People really can change.
That tattoo was pretty awful honestly, not what I'd expect from someone who's been at it for as long as that guy. The line work was pretty blurry, which for a simple ass tattoo like that is pretty damn bad. That surfer looks like a stick figure... You should of gotten him to do something with at least a little skill so you could see the depth of his talent. Just judging from what I saw though I wouldn't want him to ever tattoo me.
coolio diablo poor guy is too nice , this tattoo is garbage 🗑 , but hey mission accomplished
He was being way too demanding and specific on the tattoo. The client def ruined this on his own.
