So, during SXSW, I kept taking little, brief notes (mostly when I was drunk) on the acts I was seeing at that moment in time. These are my mostly unedited, brash comments on last weekends festivities. Special thanks to #FADERFORTConverse for the press wristband and Twin Peaks for the networking help.
@ this Tumblr party and the Entourage boys are here. Why is Kevin Hart so little??? FUCK I MISSED BADBADNOTGOOD. caught a FUCKING SHINER at Twin Peaks. the dudes were walking around VIP punking bros in suites like “are you my dad?” one of their best shows I’ve ever seen.
fuck an $83 Uber!
why dej loaf so swaggy? cutest hair cut 2015. she must reject dudes so hard, constantly, with little remorse.
the social experiment + chance get better every time I see them.
I fuck with Holt. I wasn’t too sure after that Kavinsky cover. good stage presence and though these tracks are simple, they’re effective and relatable.
viet cong looked raw. awesome guitar riffs for a punk band. must check their shit soon.
Towkio just brought out Chance and Lido. didn’t know Chance had a verse on this joint. Lido is white? that’s
big Sean going CRAZY IS KANYE COMING OUT?? he just dropped Wiz’s Gangbang! man’s played every single kanye song he got a verse on damn near. I also think I finally appreciate Blessings. E-40 on the stage for IDFWU. Naya Rivera might be crazy but it’s probably worth it.
COULDNT TAKE NOTES AT MY OWN SHOWCASE BUT CHANCE + THE GANG SHOWED OUT AS WELL AS HANNIBAL BURRIS SHOUTS OUT LEATHER CORDS, ALEX WILEY, AND THELONIOUS FOR ROCKING DOWN THE HOUSE.
Migo Migo! OG Maco’s show starts with 5 minutes of “YEAH YEAH MOTHA FUCKA FUCKA FUCKA WOOOOO!!!!!!!!!” better late than never. TELL ME WHY I JUST RAN INTO MANS WHO PLAYED ZERO IN THE FILM ADAPTATION OF HOLES.
T-PAIN IS FADER FORT’S SPECIAL GUEST!!!
this Australian dude just made the most sus joke I’ve ever heard about T-Pain he said “is it T-Pain or T-ache? am I right?” FUCK YOU. Pain just played Cyclone which makes me question again where the fuck is Baby Bash? Literally every song. I can’t think of a raw ass T-Pain song that didn’t play. Teased All I Do is Win too hard smh but he played blame it on the alcohol! shouts out Jamie Foxx! it might just be the open bar, but T-Pain seriously one of the best RNB performers I’ve ever seen.
twin peaks aka best band in America. stop looking at me fucking stupid when I mosh to this shit. just heard some older woman say Clay was “super boy hot” wtf?
cloud nothings killing it right now at doc marten’s. some chick on the side stage is acting like Christ just rose again. their music sounds like when the homies jam and just try and play as loud and fast as possible (in a good way)
How has no one played Faneto in their DJ set this whole week??
back at #FADERFORTConverse Alex G on the stage. didn’t introduce himself. no one knows who he is. opens with Harvey, black hair and after you’re gone were highlights. no one knew him but warmed up to him by the end.
kevin gates is too much of a savage to watch him perform, had to grab some drinks and hide from the rain.
special guest, Porter Robinson………………..aight.
Timbaland is on the stage and they just played dirt off your shoulders. BOOOY…IVE BEEN WATCHING YOU LIKE A HAWK IN THE SKY. ” I don’t get the credit but I like it like that.” I should probably get to knowing Tink more.
HudMo playing some trance ass shit I miss Reid. Travis Scott is out on the stage playing his and HudMo’s best. All Day is the only song I’ve ever seen played that actually got people to put their hands up without the actual artist being there performing + telling them to do it.
Two9 is dope but where is Curtis Williams? Mike Will Made It is so swag he has his own DJ. couldn’t he just do that? OH SHIT ITS RIFF RAFF IVE WITNESSED RIFF RAFF LIVE IN THE FLESH. GAME OVER. the bass was so loud for Mike Will it was tickling my throat.
trying to find this little WeDidIt party but no luck. missed the DJ set but just saw Mike Dean cop HELLA tree outside his show in his whip.
Up in the omni suites for the night. we have a lot of we have a lot of sandwiches to finish and stuff before we leave tomorrow. SXSW is over and all I can think about is sleeping in my own bed.
