Tom Hardy is one of the biggest actors around right now. He is Venom in the Marvel movies, along with Bane in the Dark Knight Rises, and starring in Mad Max, The Revenant, Dunkirk, just dozens of huge blockbuster movies.

Now he’s a masked rapper named Frankie Pulitzer in the group Czarface, and in one of their songs, Mad Technology, he name drops Ybor City! Check it out:

Honestly he’s pretty good, too! In case you missed it, his lines referencing Ybor City, as translated by Creative Loafing, go like this:

“Frankie, me, myself and I is who I’m speaking for

Sprinkle dope across the verse, shout to Shameik Moore

Catch me out in Ybor City with a sweet whore

Try to photograph me, and nah, I take the detour”

Thanks for the name check Tom, next time you’re in Ybor I promise I won’t try to snap a pic of you while you’re with your...lady friend.
