Sometimes life is odd. Take for example, Sir Paul McCartney, legendary singer-songwriter and Beatles member, who decided to attend rapper Tyga’s Grammy afterparty. Well, at least he tried to, until he was denied by security. Twice. Yes, you read that correctly. The man who made sentimental fare like “Yesterday,” “Let It Be” and changed the landscape of music, was essentially denied entry into the club by a rapper whose biggest hits are “Rack City” “Coconut Juice” and a rarely played feature on the remix to “The Motto.”

A question to which rapper/ CSI Cyber cast-member, Mr. Bow Wow has an answer to below. Again, life is odd.
