On Tuesday, 30-year-old UK grime rapper/singer Mike Skinner (of The Streets) learned the perils of acting younger than his body could handle.
Skinner wrote on his MySpace that he had sustained serious injuries while crowdsurfing at a Cambridge performance with his group The Streets. Here’s how he described the incident:
“Tonight someone held onto my belt so hard that my hernia scar from many years ago opened up to a bright red colour,” Skinner wrote. “Looks like a wee organ might pop out of its purpley red bloody gash.”
