Actor? Yes. Rapper? Hardly lol. Yeah, he does or did Hip-Hop. Why would either one of those make it out of the ordinary for someone to like a band?
Please please, do explain the finer differences between hip-hop and rap while I neglect to pay attention because I care not.
It doesn't really matter. The fact still remains why it is funny for someone in the music industry to like a band.
I wouldn't expect an American from his musical genre to even be aware of let alone be a big fan of a Swedish band from such a genre as melodeath.
