“Black Ink Crew Chicago” is back! And tensions are boiling over in response to the whole city getting shut down amid the Coronavirus outbreak. Peep the new trailer inside…
Chi-town’s Black Ink Crew is back! And it appears going on lockdown is getting the best of them.
Just as the Chi-Town crew is about to enter new chapters of their lives, the current global crisis rips through the country, disrupting business and putting relationships to the test.
9Mag honcho Ryan Henry is trying to figure out his next big business move while also nurturing his relationship with his on-again girlfriend Rachel. On the last episode, Ryan & Rachel shared videos of themselves and their families luxuriating on an island. So, it’s safe to say these two are back to working on their relationship again.
Meanwhile, Charmaine and her husband Neek Bey gear up to give birth to their daughter, Nola Bey, during a pandemic. Giving birth is scary enough by itself, so to give birth during a global pandemic definitely added some stress on the couple. Baby Nola has already made her grand entrance into the world. See her adorableness HERE.
Also, Charmaine has to put in work to get her tattoo shop - 2nd City Ink - up to par after she was shut down for not having all of the proper paperwork filed. When all hell broke loose at 2nd City Ink and Charmaine called up “Black Ink” star Miss Kitty to help, Charmaine’s partner/artist Jess jetted back to London. After doing some soul searching, Jess is ready to make a triumphant return to America.
Will Don and Ashley make it through their rough patch? She packed up her things (along with their kids' things) and left her ring behind with a note asking for a divorce. Did they end up self-isolating together? We'll surely find out.
Also, Van could be making a return as well. He popped up in a few previous episodes and we noticed some of his co-stars have been posting about his apparel on their IG accounts, so he'll likely be in the mix more often.

Season 6 of “Black Ink Crew Chicago” returns with new episodes Wednesday, May 6th at 8pm EST on VH1.
