The franchise continues expanding its West Coast footprint with two of the hottest tattoo shops in Los Angeles, inspiring the series to rebrand from “Black Ink Crew: Compton” to “Black Ink Crew: LA” for the second midseason premiere. Katrina “Kat Tat” Jackson, “Black Ink Crew: Chicago” alum and fan-favorite, continues to work hard to take Enigma to the next level. As a thriving businesswoman and the first BIPOC woman to own a tattoo shop in Beverly Hills, Kat continues to cement her name as a well-respected artist in the industry while balancing shop renovations, motherhood, entrepreneurship, and an upcoming wedding with her NFL player fiancé Jamie Collins. Meanwhile, KP remains steadfast in his mission to show the world a side of Compton’s culture that they’ve never seen before, running the city’s first-ever tattoo shop IAM Compton. With some original artists leaving, KP finally finds the right tattooers he can trust to take the brand to new heights.

Enigma’s owner and the heartbeat of her fiercely loyal team, Katrina “Kat” Jackson, returns balancing a growing business and family. After taking a hiatus in Orlando with her baby Jackson and NFL Patriot fiancé Jamie Collins, Kat is happily pregnant with baby number two while also gearing up to celebrate Enigma’s fourth year in business. Feeling her shop has been on cruise control for too long, Kat plans to overhaul Enigma with an extensive shop remodel, new artists, new managers, big events and conventions, the works. It’s go time! But it’s also baby time, and Jamie is resistant to settling down and purchasing a family home near the shop in LA. As Kat realizes you can have it all but not all at once, she’s forced to make some tough decisions and lean heavily on her team, who are all beginning to see that with new levels come new devils.
