Roller Rapper visits kids at Missouri hospital

Robby Love, aka the Roller Rapper, stopped at St. John’s Hospital at Springfield, Mo., to visit sick kids there during his Route 66 tour, reports the Springfield News-Leader.

Enter Robby Love wearing a blue sleeveless tank top, faded jeans and black roller skates.

He did a fancy spin and knelt beside the 9-year-old’s bed.

Aside from a jaw-dropping “wow” when he told her he was skating to Los Angeles and a “thanks” for the pink-shirted teddy bear he gave her, Emily didn’t say anything until he left the room.

“He’s weird,” she said, chuckling.


“It gets pretty monotonous while you’re here,” said her grandmother Barb Jacobsen. “Having someone come in and pay attention … makes her feel special.”

In his photos section, it looks like he stopped by Soulsby’s Station in Mount Olive, Ill.
