SXSW Fill-in-the-blanks with Guilty Simpson

1. The freshest piece of gear I’m going to rock at SxSW this year will be my dilla/big proof new era hat.

2. To kill the many hours in the van on the way to TX, we’re going to bring music.

3. I will stand in line for hours to see no one this year.

4. Texas BBQ and Lonestar Beer makes me want to stay in Texas. Especially if it’s free!

5. The more free beer I drink, the more likely I am to rock the spot.

6. With all the free stuff from corporate sponsors this year, I really hope to get my hands on a new ipod.

7. If I see someone wearing pink in Austin, I’m going to walk up to them and hit them in the mouth.

8. If I see someone wearing a Guilty shirt in Austin, I’m going to walk up to them and hug them.

9. Don’t tell nobody, but I heard a rumor that Billy Ocean will be playing a secret show at Stubb’s. Shhhhhh!

10. What happens in Austin, happened in Austin.

Hip Hop is Not For Lovers

Someone asked me yesterday to name some hip hop love songs. I was a jug o' wine deep and stumped. The only song I could think of was "Renee" by Lost Boyz which should be pretty high on the list. Common is off limits for obvious reasons. So this morning I may be hungover but there should be no excuse why I can't think of any more love jams. So, before I google the hell out of this, I need some readers to help me out. Here are the rules:

1) "Love" song means (man and a woman...no homo because that would be some super underground shit), no mama songs, or lovin' your hood

2) No Common

3) It has to be good, not just a song that talks about love

4) No search engines!





UPDATE: The list is out at OhWord.com so check it out and see if your love songs were on the list...then discuss and you can download the compilation at the end of the post or here
