RAPPER ArrDee was watched by none other than DJ Fatboy Slim for his homecoming show of his UK tour.
Norman Cook watched on from the back of the packed out Concorde 2 in Madeira Drive, Brighton on Tuesday night, March 29.
The 58-year-old told The Argus he “really enjoyed” the performance, which was ArrDee’s first official show in Brighton.
The Woodingdean-born rapper, real name Riley Davies, has been touring the UK for his debut mixtape called Pier Pressure.
Last month, ArrDee, 19, said he would love to “link up” with Norman Cook for a future track in an exclusive interview with The Argus.
He said: “He’s a mad cool person. I think Brighton creates these people who are creative but down to earth.
“A link up would be cool. I don’t know how we’d do it, but a collaboration would be sick.”
Quite a surprise meeting @FatboySlim stood at the back too!

Riley has made his love for Brighton clear, telling The Argus he cannot “ever imagine” leaving Brighton.
Last night, he reaffirmed that statement, screaming to the crowd that there “ain’t no place in the world like Brighton”.
Fatboy Slim is headlining On The Beach festival on July 21 and July 22 this year, 20 years after his well-known appearance on Brighton beach where hundreds of thousands of people turned up.
