This is savage. DJ Mek, the drunken master of Irish hip hop, bringing the hardcore from Tullamore. I remember hearing a story many a year ago about Mek and his Scary Eire crew beating up the Beastie Boys. Not sure how true that is but tis a savage story. I also vaguely remember doing a sketch for him early one morning after a gig in Cork in 2003 and if I can barely remember it then he definitely can’t. Anyway, this video is cool. I particularly love the bit with the guy playing Low Whistle along to Mek’s beats. Oh and of course theres the classic tin of beans and fart scratching routine. Ar fheabhas.

Mek is from the Curragh Camp, Not Tullamore you flute.
