Dublin rap duo Versatile’s song “Ketamine” has gone viral

Casper Walsh and Eskimo Supreme new seriously Dublin track racks up over 200k on YouTube. Is this the start of a rap revolution in Ireland?

The Dublin rap duo Versatile, aka Casper Walsh and Eskimo Supreme’s new track “Ketamine” is taking off on YouTube hitting the number one slot in Ireland and racking up over 200k views so far.

Versatile’s latest album managed to get over 92k views on YouTube just 24 hours after its launch. It’s not surprising as it’s pretty catchy but not surprisingly, with a title like “Ketamine” it’s full of drug references and bad language so may be not family listening.

The Dubs came to the public’s attention in 2017 when the Rubberbandits, comedy rap duo turned public advocates, tweeted about another top track… called “We Sell Brown”.

Again! Don’t listen to this, obviously, if you’re likely to be offended.

These Versatile lads are consistently class. Brilliant Irish rap and always have class beats https://t.co/5jjdaLytCm
