Met a few - The Game in Dublin in 2006 and 2007, Diddy and Snoop Dogg together in Dublin 2007, Pharrell in Dublin 2007, Ne-Yo in Dublin last December (I think) and Snoop again last month in Dublin!

Couple of other more unknown rappers too, all of them seemed grand, just got a picture with Ne-Yo, didn't really talk just said thanks, Game was sound, autographed my Documentary album and posed for a picture with him the second time. Got Diddys autograph and shook his hand, shook Pharrells hand, dont know if that really counts as he was walking past the front row of his concert?

Snoop in was 2007 especially obliging, seemed very happy to meet a fan of his, said he loved coming to Ireland and meeting his Irish fans, talked for a few more minutes and got a few pictures with him.

Nobody really famous.
I met mc supernatural a few years back and smoked a couple of joints with him. Really nice dude and really passionate about hiphop. He actually walked up to me and asked me for a light and then just started chatting.

I met craig g from the juice crew and he was nothing like a expected. Really sound and down to earth person.

Rahzel kinda seems like he's sick of meeting and greeting people cos he used to tour so much.

ItsNugget · 15-08-2010 12:23PM

Lord finesse is actually a really cool bloke and takes the time to sign stuff for his fans and when i say time i mean he sat their for about an hour after a tour hour show to forty people and listened to idiots quoting his songs over and over loudly in his ear and was mad cool about it.

Met guru but unfortanely it was a real bad night for him. He'd just done a solo show with pretty awful sound and someone in the crowd shouted the n word at him and he just wanted to get away. Doo wop was djing for him and seen i had a 12" vinyl with me and chased after him and got him to sign it, which i suppose says a lot about guru as he still signed it despite the fact he'd had a **** time. R.I.P.

They're all ****in legends. Was it an Irish crowd where someone called guru the n word. Things like that really break my temper. Its such a **** thing to do. I remember being at a de la soul gig at electric picnic one year and there was this drunk idiot shouting **** at the top of his lungs. I told him to shut his ****ing mouth.

i met Skillz a couple of years back. He's a pretty cool dude

Boom_Bap · 16-08-2010 08:00AM

I've met Slug, Ant, Ali, BK One, all of the original Arsonists, Shabazz, El-P, Pigeon John.

Ant is a super cool dude, ended up talking to him about the cost of petrol and fuel effeciancy.

Pigeon John is another super genuine person, after meeting him we exchanged email addresses and kept in touch for a while.

The Arsonist invited me to some party to get blazed with them, i was a youngfella at the time with a curfew so i couldnt attend unfortunatly.

El-P is a humble dude, he asked me for a light before his gig in Crawdaddy recently and shot the sh*t with him for a bit.....he actually wanted a lighter to open his beer from the rider.

BK One is also a seriously nice guy, talked to him about music, t-shirts and google.

I'm sure there are others i've met.....

Met Chuck D a good few years back as he was unloading the gear out of the tour bus!! He was proper sound though and seemed content to listen to my drunken ramblings about the merits of P.E various albums without too much complaint.

I met Nas once. Brief, awkward as hell, about 3 second conversation.

On the not so famous.

I know Ill Bill and Danny Boy. I know nearly all of Ill Bill's family.

I've seen lot's of rappers that I haven't met in NYC - Jay-Z, Cam'ron, Ja Rule, 5 Cent, Fat Joe, Ghostface Killah, Q-Tip.

Ill Bill is a ****in good rapper. I would have thought he would be a right angry bastard though.

When I was 10 back in 1999, I wasnt really interested in music, my older brother (18) however was huge into rap (how i got into it eventually) and in particular he loved Wu Tang Clan. His favourite memeber was ODB. We were in New York on holiday with the family and we were crossing the road when all of a sudden my brother stops, I turn around and see what seems to be my brother shouting at a homeless man, I got closer and he was saying "I ****ing love you man! Your my favourite rapper", the homeless man was infact Ol' Dirty Bastard, stoned out of his mind and carrying booze in a brown paper bag. My brother told him he was from Ireland and ODB thought that was cool, I waved and he gave me a thubs up, which at 10 years old was so cool to me.

Met the rapper from Messiah J & Expert in Tower Records but I think he was a member of staff

MilanPan!c · 16-08-2010 09:57PM

Met Eminem (and have the signed My Name Is 12" to prove it).

Seemed nice and cracked a joke, but that was on his first club tour in the US... He's prolly a dick now.

Doubt it, seems like all he does now is try to please his fans.

Hugh Cream · 22-01-2011 08:36PM

CiaranMT · 22-01-2011 10:26PM

Passed by Fiddy two summers ago in Shannon Airport of all places with his posse. Bit surreal.

Monty Burnz · 22-01-2011 10:29PM

Was a great show cant believe I didn't hang around for that, waited a while for a encore but just left when he didn't re-appear. Next time I wont be so impatient. Did you travel especially for the gig? There was me me thinking I was Irelands biggest J Cole fan:D

iamstop · 24-01-2011 05:11PM

Was hanging out with the Beasties, Mix Master Mike and some of J5 at the Good Vibrations festival in Singapore about 3 and a half yrs ago. Met Kool Keith and Ghostface before too.

Mostly go to DJ show though so meet more of them.

fabbydabby · 24-01-2011 05:47PM

I met MC Sniffy, he's famous in Kilkenny.

osizzle · 24-01-2011 09:17PM

have met quite a few, none of the massive ones tho,

I always appreciated the ones who stay behind after shows,
cant remember any who were particularly rude,
but generally they are looking for weed or girls, not drunk fans,
but if they see you have a record, they always appreciate that & sign it

Seaneh · 25-01-2011 04:32AM

I met Nugget, he's a prick*.

*only messing Nug, we all know you're not famous...
