Unexpected hip hop stories

Guru from Gangstarrs real name is Keith.

Ernie C bought me a bottle of Brown Ale in Jillys Rockworld after on of his entourage tried to chat up my then girlfriend.


Public Enemy got a lift to gig in Sheffield off a random in a Ford Focus.


The highlight of the journey, however, came as the car was coming through Attercliffe. “I had a compilation CD I’d made in the car,” said Wells. “It was on low but suddenly when Bohemian Rhapsody came on, one of the entourage at the front shouted ‘Bo Rap! Waynes World!’ and they all started headbanging in the back of the car.

:lol:

Oh just realised you highlighted Toddla. Quality party dj, don’t think I’d listen to his stuff in the house.

Check out some Andy H if you can one of the best technical djs around.
