I have these little black specs on my penis. They kinda look like black pepper specs. Some i can just scratch off with my nail but some are deeper under the skin. What is this? Is it a std or a skin rash? would like some help and info.

It's best to follow up on this with your provider. It could be just an irritation type rash but it could be something like pubic lice even - they bite the skin and cause symptoms similar to this. Are you having itching too?

no they are not itchy. Just random black specs like the size of a spec of pepper. Does not hurt at all.

Does not sound like a STD, as Grace said best to see a Dr at this point for it.
