This past Thursday I was flying to Chicago for a shoot and the DP that I travel with is a very frequent flyer, so he has anytime access to the United Club lounge - plus guests (me).
We walk into a packed lounge with very limited seats and manage to find a few open spots. I set my stuff down and am sitting directly across from Plug 1 aka Posdnuos aka Kelvin Mercer of De La Soul fame. He's just by himself, headphones on, minding his business. I've been a very big De La fan since their early days and I was almost a little starstruck. I'm like 5 feet across from Pos, but am having a chat with my friend trying to focus on our conversation. After about 30 minutes, we get up to board our flight I approach Pos and give him a fist bump telling him how great of an emcee he is and how much I appreciate their music. He's super kind, receptive, and soft-spoken and agrees to take a photo with me. I've been on a huge De La kick since Thursday. Oodles and Oodles of Os ya know!
