About Black Ink Crew: Chicago

The "Black Ink Crew" franchise blows into the Windy City, where a passionate, ambitious group of artists hopes to find success at 9Mag, a tattoo mecca for hip-hop elites, celebrities and athletes. Owner Ryan created 9Mag as a legacy to his late sister and niece, and the shop represents a daily reminder of his past struggles and of a bright future... if he plays his cards right. The cast also includes the "little sister" of the shop, Kat; ladies' man Phor; flirtatious event planner Charmaine; Phor's younger brother and assistant, Don; Charmaine's cousin, "good girl" receptionist Danielle; and Ryan's former business rival, Van.
