WITH SXSW ABOUT A WEEK AWAY MY EXCITEMENT LEVELS ARE RISING WITH EACH DAY. THE FIRST WEEK IS MOSTLY INTERACTIVE EXPOS THAT INVOLVE MOVIES AND GAMES, WHICH I WOULDN'T MIND BEING A PART OF SINCE I'VE BEEN A GAMER SINCE A CHILD, BUT UNFORTUNATELY I WON'T MAKE THOSE PARTS OF THE FESTIVAL

IT OK THOUGH, HOPEFULLY THEY'LL BE RELEASING SOME GOOD FOOTAGE OF THE EVENTS I MISS SO ALL IS NOT TOTALLY LOSS.  K DOWN TO BUSINESS, I'LL BE FLYING OUT TOAUSTIN, TX MARCH 12TH, AND ON THE NEXT DAY (MARCH 13TH) AND I'LL BEPERFORMING MY HIT

DANCE PARTY!!!

THIS WILL BE MY 1ST TIME AT SXSW & I'M PERFORMING SO I'M GUESSING THIS WILL BE ONE HELL OF AN EXPERIENCE FOR ME.  BESIDES MY OWN PERFORMANCE THERE WILL BE PLENTY OF OTHER HIP HOP ACTS THAT DAY, SOME BIG NAMES, SOME I DIDN'TRECONIZE BUT THEY ALL SHOULD PROVIDE ENJOYABLE SHOWS.  IF YOU'RE MORE A FAN OF GRITTY, STREET RAP THE PLACE FOR YOU THAT DAY WOULD BE A VENUE NAMED AVENUE CONGRESS ROOFTOP.  THE SHOWS START AT 8pm AND THERE WILL BE ABOUT 12 TO 13 ACTS, THE MORE NOTABLE ONES BEING

PROBLEM

SAGE THE GEMINI

DJ PAUL(DA MAFIA 6)

NOW IF TRIP HOP IS MORE YOUR THING THEN A VENUE CALLED THE SCOOT INN WOULD BE THE PERFECT PLACE FOR YOU.  THE SHOW STARTS AT 7:30pm AND WILL SHOWCASE 7 TO 8 ARTIST MOST OF THEM BEING FUNK VOLUME MEMBERS SUCH AS 

SWIZzz, JAREN BENTON, & DIZZY WRIGHT

OTHER PERFORMERS INCLUDE TECH N9NE

& MURS!

TRAE THE TRUTH IS ON THE CARD AS WELL WHICH I FOUND ODD, CAUSE HE FALLS MORE INTO THE CATEGORY OF THE RAPPERS PERFORMING AT THE AVENUE CONGRESS ROOFTOPOH WELL THOUGH I'M SURE HE'LL STILL PUT ON A KILLER PERFORMANCE.   THERESPLENTY OF ACTS THAT I'M NOT NAMING DUE TO THE FACT THAT I DON'T WANT THIS TO BE TOO LENGTHY BUT I GAVE YOU MOST OF THE VIPS AND THIS IS JUST ONE DAY, AND ONE GENRE!  IF YOU'RE A MUSIC FAN & NOT PLANNING ON GOING I SUGGEST YOU START PLANNING FOR NEXT YEAR...
