March 15, 2019, my last great SXSW. I flew into Austin and went straight to the stage. At one point, the vibe felt low and I wanted to leave, but my Neon Moon / Too Short mix into “Hood Party” put the spirit right back in me to groove. It’s written all over my face.
My dad is a fine example of an African country music fan.
He’s a 70-year-old Nigerian man who *only* listens to old-school country music.
He hates rock music, but I tried to show him Neil Young. He finally listened and said, “well, I guess he’s kinda country too!” 😂
mf doom was my first concert in 2004 (he was on tour with talib kweli)
the first “underground” rapper i ever heard of. a friend sent me rhymes like dimes on AIM.

i present to y’all a blessed image of Pimp C in a Nirvana shirt. UGK is the best rap group and here’s a list of my favorite songs by them (at the moment). you gon need youtube to find these country rap tunes.
if you wanna do something nice for my birthday, y’all should love each other more and see yourself in each other more often. groove however you choose today.

if you're in Houston, order a dozen raw salads from Sunshine and take your ass to MacGregor Park. if you have one drop of mezcal this weekend, please, think of me!
wish y’all could hear the rap i wrote with FKA Twigs for her character in Honey Boy. i picked Too Short’s “Freaky Tales” beat for it. the scene got scrapped but i got a mention in the credits.
R.I.P. Virgil Abloh 🌹 Thank you for the indelibly fantastic party we played together in Paris 2018. You were so fun, a great DJ, and a tequila lover like me. I left inspired and still feel it.
