Hip-Hop Legends
On a more serious note than my true-but-horrifically-inane previous stories, I have had the chance to meet a lot of legends in the hip-hop world. I've met Guru from Gang Starr (RIP). Terrifically nice fellow, my friend was (very drunkenly) waffling at him after a show saying basically, "Thanks for your contributions to the world of hip-hop," and Guru signed the front of the hoodie my friend was wearing. On the way to the taxis said friend was remarking what a nice bloke he was, when I commented on the autograph which surprised him further as he'd not even noticed him doing it.

I've also met Pete Rock, Rob Swift, J-Live, Jazzy Jeff, DJ Noize, Ugly Duckling, People Under The Stairs, DJ Q-Bert, The Beatnuts, Del The Funkee Homosapien and plenty of other artists most people won't have heard of but I assure you have been big names in the right circles and, as a huge underground rap fan I'm very proud of (and by met I mean actually gone up to them after a show and shaken their hands, got an LP autographed, whatever)

I met Jeru and DJ Krush after gigs.
Jeru was a cunt. Krush was delightful.

I've heard
Mixed accounts about Jeru. Never seen him live but have heard he's shit from a lot of people. I've also heard Grandmaster Flash is a right cunt, but to be honest couldn't give a shit as long as I get to see him play. That said it would be better if he wasn't (a cunt)

He wasn't great, to be fair...
He was late on, played a short set and then was an asshole afterwards. And the sound kept cutting out, although that might have been the fault of the venue.
