Kneecap & Lowry sing same tune in explaining controversial actions

MICHAEL Lowry is the fourth Kneecap.

- 

Yes, that's not a sentence you thought you'd read today so I'll elaborate: Kneecap is a bone, and now - more famously - a hip-hop trio.

You have Kneecap one, who goes by the name of Mo Chara. Kneecap two is Moglai Bap. Kneecap three is DJ Provai.

You might need to liberally sprinkle a pinch of fadas over those names to taste - the weather is too nice for me to worry about fadas. And I'm a bit tired.

Anyway, more people are reading about Kneecap now than will listen to them, kind of like how more people might read about the Irish language than speak it.

PAINFUL

The kneecap experience at the moment - as it has traditionally been for a long time - is a painful one.
