When he was 12 years old, Rejjie Snow’s life changed forever. At a concert in Dublin, Pharrell Williams plucked this scrawny Irish kid “wearing a fitted cap and baggy hoody” from the audience, inviting him to trade rhymes over the song ‘Rockstar’ (by Pharrell’s band NERD). Surveying the crowd, basking in the white-heat of their excitement, Snow promised himself he’d be back at the Olympia one day playing his own show.
