Liam Gallagher getting a rapper’s name hilariously wrong is exactly why we love him

Interviewing Liam Gallagher is surely a journalist's dream.

The former Oasis frontman-turned-solo artist is not known for being a wallflower. He rarely has nothing to say on a subject, uses the word 'fuck' as punctuation and is hilarious to boot. Gallagher's got an album on the way, As You Were, and he's been all over the place recently, gigging here, doing an interview there - 2017 is truly the year of Liam. The singer is on the cover of the latest issue of GQ, and in an interview with the magazine he was asked what kind of music his kids enjoy listening to. "My kids fucking love grime music," Gallagher said. "Stormzy, Skepta – he seems pretty mad. I like him. "They also like that bloke, WhatsApp Ricky. You know, the American geezer, stylish, funny, gold teeth." When the interviewer asked if he meant A$AP Rocky, Gallagher replied: “Oh yeah, that’s the fella. WhatsApp Ricky. That’s a better fucking name anyway.” https://twitter.com/rossy/status/894978808910139392 I mean, you can't argue with that: WhatsApp Ricky is probably the best name for a rapper ever. If A$AP Rocky is reading this, take note: when Liam's right about something, he's never wrong.
