I’d like to believe that (on) ‘Black Ink’ Chicago, we tell a story about a cast of individuals that’s never been told before. I think the show showcases what it takes to make it as an entrepreneur in Chicago, and we showcase the hustle, the triumphs, the struggle and the interpersonal relationships and sometimes combustibility of our cast, both professionally and personally. Ryan Henry was born on May 27, 1986, and although he has an African-American and Japanese heritage, his nationality is American. Last year, Ryan’s private life played out across social media platforms as the show took hiatus thanks to the 9Mag owner’s Anthony Lindsey.

Said Cesareo: “‘Black Ink Crew,’ it’s this amazing story of entrepreneurship, underdogs, grit and heart. Ouuh wee VH1 today announced that its hit series Black Ink Crew: Chicago will be making its return on Monday, October 4 at 8PM ET/PT and YES, Ryan Henry is addressing the elephant in Chicago. We totally want to show Chicago in the best light that we can show it.” 338 likes, 40 comments - RealityEntertainmentTV (realityentertainmenttv) on Instagram: 'Anthony Lidnsey denies being abusive to his baby mother, Nina Marie & claims her & Ryan Henry set.'
