Inked: Last month you announced that you will be recording your sophomore album this summer; who will you be working with?
Yelawolf: The album is called Love Story and I’ll be working with WillPower and Malay, lay money. I’m definitely not going to give up any features that I plan to have on this project. I’m going to keep everything super low key. As far as my crew just the same crew, same as I always do. The focus of the album is the experience since Radioactive and just putting all that into a project.

Inked: What made you decide to start working on another album so soon?
Yelawolf: I just started getting really inspired to record another album and it just felt like it was time again. I’m bringing the same squad but of course we are going to be in Nashville so there is no telling what could happen, what kind of musicians we’ll be pulling in from the city, who might stop through the studio, who knows but we are definitely going out there to make something special.

Inked: What will Eminem’s involvement be with the next album?
Yelawolf: Well you know it’s Shady Records, and of course that's the homie, so the door is always open. I’m not sure when or if he’s going to be available during that time, but I’m positive that we’re going to be working together on a project. [I] always keep him in the circle because you know it’s important to keep it in the family.

Inked: What made you decide to title the album Love Story?
Yelawolf: Well I’m going to let the music tell that. The title, that is the question really, I know everyone is going to ask that and that’s the whole point.

Inked: You recently got Johnny Cash tattooed on your dome with the name Fefe, how did you two meet and what is the significance behind the piece?
Yelawolf: Fefe held me down, she’s become my best friend and I love her. I’m not afraid to show that. This is my way of expressing that dedication. It’s a metaphor Johnny and June, Johnny Cash and June Carter, their relationship and how I feel that reflects my relationship with her. That’s my way of showing my appreciation for her.

Inked: Do you have any tattoos meaningful to your career?
Yelawolf: My career is built around experiences. All of my music relates directly to my life and all of my tattoos are a reflection of my life also, so they are all meaningful to my career.

Inked: Have any that you regret?
Yelawolf: No not at all.

Inked: What is your most meaningful tattoo?
Yelawolf: The one that says beer grip on my hand [laughs].
