Pill Speaks

Some people are so captivating that you could listen to them talk for hours. Pill is one of those people.

Charles Hamilton x Mistah F.A.B. x Exile SXSW Freestyle

Charles Hamilton has had a rough week day with all the rocks being thrown at him. While I don’t know the man personally and can’t say if he’s as much the asshole as he’s portrayed to be, I can say that I commend him for his willingness to still kick freestyles after the last two videos led to...

TWTW: “SXSW & Beyond”

The Grand Ole Party was a success on so many levels. Big thanks to all those who made SXSW a surreal experience for the crew. What else went down this week? Well…

Mistah F.A.B. Feat Trae - “This Real Life”

Last time that I bring up SXSW (I promise). But Mistah F.A.B. caught my attention this weekend as well. Blame it on the hyphy movement, but the way he dressed had me initially dismiss him as another clown with a taste for bright colors and going dumb. That may be a part of him, but he brings more...

“Introducing Nato Caliph…”

Understandably, DJ Trackstar’s a busy guy, but he’s been holding out on us y’all. We’ve been properly introduced to Wafeek, Vandalyzm, Black Spade, Karim, & Rockwell Knuckles but Nato Caliph has been kept in the shadows. I had to go all the way to Austin to find out about...

Tanya Morgan x B.o.B. x Mickey Factz x Curren$y x After Austin

We tried to have all of our SXSW’ing done by yesterday so as to not overburden your brain with coverage. But I’ve got a feeling the film & audio are going to keep making their way electronically via others. Fine by me because it’s worth. Maybe not fine by some of you. Dah well!...

The SXSW Recap: The Unabridged Version

Preface this whole thing by saying that my memory is not the best. That’s why I went ahead & posted the The Temporary, Abbreviated Version before. Impaired by heavy intake of substances over the years along with the mass amount of info I process on a daily, my mental hard drive isn’t...

Video: Bun B Performing At The Austin Music Hall

First of all, a big middle finger to the Fader Fort for being so out the way of everything else SXSW-related and being such pricks about getting the wristbands (despite RSVP’ing) thus I missed out on last night’s G.O.O.D Music event. But I’ve seen Kanye twice, met GLC the night before...

SXSW Video: KiD CuDi & 88-Keys In The Streets Of Austin

Praise Jehovah, Cudi isn’t retiring. In case we didn’t make it abundantly clear already, the B&T show was the talk of Austin. We had artists stopping by all day to witness the future of Hip-Hop be brilliant on our stage. Two of those artists were 88-Keys and KiD CuDi. If you peeped our...

“Jets, aggin!” More footage I was able to upload this morning. This time, a short clip of Spitta performing “Movie Writers, Businessmen & Gangsters” off the Fear & Loathing… mixtape. Previously Posted — Video: Curren$y - “Modern Day Hippie”...

The SXSW Recap: The Temporary, Abbreviated Version

Ugh. There should be age & physical requirements for participating in SXSW. I woke up yesterday @ 4:30 in order to make my early morning flight. When I got to the hotel, it was maybe 9:30-10am in Austin and the hotel seemed to have zombies just floating around looking for coffee, burning squares...

Mistah F.A.B, Zumbi (of Zion I), Kosha Dillz, & Others - Freestyle Video from MZ on Vimeo. Probably the nicest thing about SXSW is that artists are just walking around the street and are completely approachable. With so many people around and endless networking opportunities, they’ll practically...

South By Southwest Airlines

Another excuse to remind you to go to our showcase with Nah Right today at SxSW. This shit right here is a classic example of undue YouTube attention. When I read the title of this as “Flight Attendant Doing Raps!” I prayed for another Red at HVW8. “Doing raps” should have told...
