J. Cole @ South By South Next

So, the first ever South By South Next Showcase was definitely off the richter scale.  J. Cole (above) smashed it.  Freddie “Gangsta” Gibbs, destroyed it.  Yelawolf tore it down, and URB served fans out in Austin a real showcase  of “NEXT” generation talent.

I most definitely have to send a major shout out to our wonderful promoters Fadia Kader and Leaders of the New Cool.  Yall are some real hustlers. Also must give major appreciation to the brands that supported our efforts, including Blue Microphones, Soul Rebel New York, Mindzai Printing, ComeUpKids.com, Xtrovertd Media, and last but not least, FreestyleMadness.com whose eleventh hour support enabled us to extend the time for our loaded event.

Stay tuned, media flood forthcoming…

Cubic Zirconia Tour: SXSW Day 1 (Video)

Cubic Zirconia hit the Karmaloop stage at Beauty Bar under the back yard tent in the high sun. A couple hundred people filed in the space, managers, DJs, bands and friends from New York and LA sparsed through the crowd with a curious familiarity. They hit with energy, the set was fluid, calculated, and most importantly fun as could be. Sean Carasso of Falling Whistles asked me “can they keep this up for 6 days?” and I told him “they’ve already done six days.” It was a rabbit out of the hat, yet there’s always logic and the prestige with magic.

Yelawolf “Pop the Trunk” (Video)

Yelawolf is in the wrong business. The Alabama MC and 25: NOW! artist is so convincing and downright haunting in this video that he should be an actor. We are all weary of white-boy rappers, but his exceptional rapping skills make him a true force to reckon with as his mixes classic rock elements with Southern rap. Here he raps around his back-country home and town talking about taking care of those no-good punks who don’t mind their own business.
