The late rapper Sean Price might be gone, but he is definitely never going to be forgotten – even by the people we’d least expect!
Actor Ryan Phillippe shocked the world after posting a photo onto his Instagram account showing off his fresh new ink. He paid homage to Price, who was found dead at age 43, by getting his face tattooed on his arm, which was surprising but extremely dope of him to do.
Bernadette Price, Sean’s widow, reposted the photo and gave props to Ryan for his sweet and thoughtful gesture.
Back in 2014, Sean Price actually did an interview with Noisey where he specifically detailed his relationship with Phillippe. The two seemed to be pretty close!
Via Noisey:
Have you ever met anybody that you were surprised was a fan of yours?
I trip out over some of it. Me and Ryan Phillippe are friends. I would not think that Ryan Phillippe would be a Sean Price fan. He knew a friend of mine and he was like “Dude! I’m a big fan! I’m going to take him out to eat!” We went out to restaurant in Manhattan called STK. We went there and we pigged out. We had like 5 dozen oysters, we ate, we cracked a shit load of jokes. He’s a real down-to-earth dude. I’m just surprised, you know?
They were filming Brookyn’s Finest in Brownsville and I met Don Cheadle. He was familiar with my music. I was bugging out. Wow! I’m just surprised by the fans I do have. “Oh, Don Cheadle? You know my shit?” Shit like that bugs me out, yo.
