So now they know him...

Me (on the left) & Wally (on the right)
Whats uuuuuuuup!!!!!! Cho boy!!! Clipse new album coming October, Till The Casket Drops, go pick that up, the same month, Wally's new album, So now they know me will be shelved across Ireland (fucking hopefully) and guess what? I was at the video shooting, which was the 3rd day of the actual shooting. The man decided to gather the whole town on main street, load up a lorry full of equipment and away we went - the whole town, following him, he's at the front, moving towards the camera, rapping, bears dancing around him, fireworks and crackers exploding on the sides, I must be in the fucking shot, when you see the video, I'm the one smoking cigarette. That was a great day overall, met loads of people I know, after the whole thing was over, I got his autograph, took pictures of me and him and all the rest, nice guy. Portlaoise, muthafuckas!
A little history on the guy: his debut album So now they know me was once recorded or wasn't finished at the Red Lake Studio in Portlaoise, Ireland and now it's being remastered to perfection in Hollywood, rumors say that he was working with one of Eminem's past producers and the video will hopefully hit MTV UK and guess what..? I'M IN IT!!!!!!!!!!!!! I might even perform at the album launch party if things go well, but... only messing. I won't overshadow this kid's fame, don't hate, congratulate. Wally was also grinding his road to fame through YouTube and the latest video of his displays 56,000 viewers and counting now that's what's up! I never heard of the dude, honestly and half-a-town knows me. Very few people say they know him and as far as Portlaoise, he's the new thing to them, I would normally know someone if that someone goes for a few pints of beer regularly, club or dealing drugs(lol) but no, Wally was only known to the limited selection of people, like only the chosen ones got to speak to him, When Portlaoise lads watching them YouTube videos, they're like "Who's that chap?" - "Don't know him" and now he's taking over the world and to see someone coming out from such a place is a good thing for Hip-Hop I think. I'm a critic in some way but I ain't gonna fire at this dude cause a good organized parade like that deserves some respect, he's doing the right thing. This video will be massive, you heard? I mean ain't gonna jump around and promote his album like a ma'fucka but the man deserves some cred. Shit, I wish everybody was selling like Lil' Wayne, 2 millions in the first week and there are 8 millions in Ireland so there, give the man some support. Although, I didn't know there were any recording studios in Hollywood and if he's working with the industry's giants like Eminem's producers, they could at least provide him with a better website or was it all a joke and Wally made fun of the whole town? We'll see, stay tuned, cho boy Vlad, covering events from the very center of Ireland, until next we meet although you will probably see me anyway, hahaaa, Vlad out!
See ya!!
