21 SXSW bands x 11 SXSW Superlatives; Really cool then, and still is… two weeks later (MP3)

So as the business card pile collects dust and we all wonder where we were while ASAP Rocky got put in a “Vice Grip” and your car got towed in the $7 dollar public lot after 3 am, lets give you the last of the last SXSW articles. Maybe you went to the Fader Fort and hung out with the Bawss Rick Ross or kicked it with Nardwuar , saw Murs on the street, met Trash Talk, or wondered how the fuck anyone ever made it to Beauty Ballroom which was in the middle of nowhere Austin.
(why would you throw shows so far away?) Did you hit Pitchfork parties to see STRFKR ? Did you catch a dusty band playing for 20 people that was the next best thing?

Did you meet any cool ass guitarists on the street? Did you …

3 different things: @AzadRight @blingcrosby drop music , @NNXT drunk text video (Video & MP3)

Lets have a post with three different people so friends will see them and listen to all their music. I listened to NNXT at SXSW and Azad Right and Crosby have been grinding on two different coasts for some time. Bottom line is they all music. All the music is dope and they’re different from each other.

Crosby means to rep nyc in the best way possible, and he does it with this tape. If there is anyone who manages to be the lower east side kid dropping words encouraged through Alphabet City , this kid is the poster child..

@hurryupnbuy’s Photos @SXSW 2012 feat. J. Pinder & Zuzuka Poderosa

This year, I finally made my trek down to Austin, TX for SXSW but unfortunately, due to invasion of my work life and my lack of patience to wait on lines, I only went to a couple of shows. I actually got to see artists like Diplo, Duck Sauce and Girl Talk but they weren’t performing nor was my camera ready.  Fortunately, I was lucky enough to witness a few very dope shows and they were J. Pinder and Zuzuka Poderosa. Check out their work here:

I also caught up with Homeboy Sandman randomly in the streets. Boy is tall. Can’t miss him from a mile away. Sandman, if you’re reading this, good meeting you dawg.
