Recently Sam About Town was completely wowed by the production, Men With Coconuts and so we were pretty excited to learn that the self confessed “tall skinny posh one” is doing a solo show as well.
MC Hammersmith (aka Will Naameh, also known for Spontaneous Sherlock and Spontaneous Potter) is a multi-award-winning freestyle rap comedian. He is the world’s leading freestyle gangsta rapper to ever emerge from the ghetto of middle class white west London. This Adelaide Fringe, he presents an hour of completely improvised hip hop comedy based entirely on audience suggestions.
We spoke to Will to find out how the Fringe was going so far and he gave an insight into some of those aforementioned audience suggestions…
“I’m loving Fringe so far. One part of my show is audience members holding up random objects, and I rhyme with all of them in the form of an improvised gangsta rap. Notable objects so far have included a false hand, someone’s literal underwear, and a packed diorama of every single Disney princess. All in the same show. So it really has been an eye-opening run so far!”
Eye-opening indeed! This show sounds like it will be incredibly entertaining and his reviews are further evidence of that.
“The funniest rapper in the world!” Culross Fest.
