Plasterer Palefaceproperly named Karri Miettinentells Helsingin Sanomat that he was part of the incident in the middle of the train journey on Wednesday evening.
On the train on the way to Riihimäki, the conductor asked Paleface to come and help him when he told the couple traveling without a ticket to get off the train. The conductor said that a couple of men gestured threateningly.
Paleface went with the conductor to another carriage, where a large man was waiting. He placed himself between the man and the conductor. The situation was suddenly interrupted when the man’s partner recognized the rapper.
– The woman probably thought I was there by chance. He began to enthuse that ‘Paleface!’ The man with a foreign background didn’t understand what it was about and wanted to get even more angry, he tells the magazine.
According to Paleface, the woman mentioned in passing that her husband was from Nigeria. The artiste then started praising the late Nigerian artiste Fela Kutia. According to the rapper, this made the man calm down.
– The train stopped, the conductor opened the door, and they left. The woman still shouted from between the door that they will come to my gig sometime. Music unites! Paleface says.
It is not the first time that Paleface has experienced surprising moments on his train journeys. In December 2023, the artist said on his Instagram account that he noticed on his way from Seinäjoki to Helsinki that a man was dozing off in his place. The man in question happened to be a dancing legend Jorma Uotinen.
– Now a top guy happened to be a fellow passenger on the Helsinki train! Paleface set the mood in its publication, which also included a joint photo of the two.
