Shia LaBeouf – All Eyez On My New Tupac Tattoo (PHOTOS)

Shia LaBeouf's love of rap music just reached a new height -- his upper, inner thigh.

A scruffy Shia took a stroll in L.A. and showed off some new ink that looks like a janky nod to Tupac Shakur. 'Pac famously had "Thug Life" tatted across his abs ... just like the shirtless character now above LaBeouf's left leg.

The tatt doesn't exactly do Pac justice ... can't tell if that's a mole or an attempt to illustrate Pac's gunshot wound to the chest.

California Love.
