Twitter user Tiana took to social media to gush about her chance encounter with the Atlantan. She wrote in a post Wednesday that she was strolling down a “silent block in Soho” when the Grammy award-winner emcee walked out of a coffee shop she was passing.

“'Oh my God you’re on my shirt rn.' He was acting just as hype as me, which maximized my level of happiness/excitement x10000. What a good day,” she tweeted.

"One of the most exciting parts about this moment was that he actually took two photos of me posing in the shirt, hahaha," she wrote. "His energy was absolutely amazing though. I just wish I could explain the pause I took as he floated out of the (expletive) coffee shop on this calm (expletive) street lol."
