Wow I Met My Idol

ok, i met eyedea and abilities yesterday. they had a show the night before, in amsterdam, but my mom wouldnt let me go. i was bummed, because i really like them. but the next day i heard they were gonna do a mini show/freestyle session in fatbeats, a hiphop record store in amsterdam. i called up my friend and we jumped on the train. we walked for like a hour to the shop, and then we finally found it. we went down the stairs and we came into this small space, and my head almost reached the ceiling. there were like 10 people there, and eyedea was right in front of my nose. when his dj, abilities, took a break to roll a joint, eyedea asked us if we knew what a quarter pounder with cheese was called in france. i said "a royale with cheese!" and we continued the classic pupl fiction dialogue. when the mini show was over, we talked some more.

it was great, because i really love eyedea, and i talked with him, and im so happy. ahve you guys ever met someone you look up to?

No, i have never met anyone taller than me.

and no i have never met my idol, i really don't Idolize anyone. I think its kind of a sad idea to do so. But if i had to pick just a few i would have to say... Thom Yorke or Mike Krahulik and Jerry Holkins.

Eyedea and Abilities is what you get when you combine the very best of two opposite ends of Hip-Hop's musical spectrum. On one end you have the M.C./Lyricist, Eyedea, who has proven himself time and time again not only as an extraordinary song writer, but also as a master at battling and the art of freestyling. On the other end you have Abilities, the D.J./Turntablist, who's talent from the battle, to the mix tape, to production has resonated on the underground for quite some time now. When you put these two extremes together, you get the new, innovative and exciting dynamic we like to call E&A.

Ohhh frigg... yeah i did acctually meet my idol, i forgot that i do have one and that i did meet him (sad to have memory loss). A year and a half agoi went to a Mitch Hedberge comedy show as a Christmas present. I didn't get to talk to him or say "hey those are good corn chips" or anything but i did sit front row EXACTLY 3 FEET FROM HIM AND HIS BOTTLE OF .... damn i forgot what he was drinking. But he was damn hilarious and that was the peek moment when i said... "Comedian would be an awesome life".

John Lennon's dead, so I can't meet him. Frown

I've never met anybody like that.

It'd rule to meet Dave Matthews or Noel/Liam Gallagher.

Well I haven't met them Sweat Drop

But I did see Bea Arthur on a trip to Los Angeles once. Or it was an old drag queen I'm not sure, but I still feel blessed.

yeah he is one amazing battle rapper and freestyler. it was a small space and he sat on these little steps, abilities was playing an instrumental and eyedea just had his face pointing to the ground, and with his eyes closed he just freestyled for half an hour straight. it was amazing. later he stood up and he and abilities did some back and forth work, with abilities on the turntables. they work together very well.

who ever they are it doesnt matter, they are no good at the rap I like. Also I guarantee you none of them could stand toe to toe with Pimp C or Bunn B or 8-ball or MJG, or Too Short or E40, so chill out chump and listen to you "real" hip-hop.
