I left pretty damn early... the music was fun, but I couldn't watch any more metros and fag-hags "dance".

You really got a hard on for those dudes, don't you?
MAN, Soulstrut has been POPPING this week!
What's up Day?
I believe the words "hurt feelings" would best explain this
Exactly...so how do we get them to STOP?
i don't know. somehow i think "tasty jazztronica" is in the answer
Project Blowed/ What's the Code???
do something better so people will spend their time and money going to your event instead
RALPH WHATS GOOOOOOOOD
LETS DO SOME COKE AND LISTEN TO BORIS
Better would be convincing said people to jump off of a very tall building.
But I still have to think that dj's who purposefully cater to such a crowd are an even worse animal.
Oh yeah, make sure to check out the blurb about The Rub DJ's in this year's pre-SXSW Austin Chronicle...it will definitely be a doozy.
Well, let's get down to brass tacks: "Tasty jazztronica" is the answer to everything, everywhere.
As for this thread, there are two things mentioned for which I have an inherent dislike:
1) Cocaine
2) Places called "The Beauty Bar"
Bwwahahahaah!
SoulStrut never forgets!!!!
u sound like a bitter dj who doesnt get any gigs.
people can't dance and have fun without the party police coming around and giving "street approval" to the music being played? i really don't get the whole point of this thread.
please show me the PARTIES where real hip hop is being played...i'd like to see what kind of chicks are there.
Did you get that? I didn't have to remix its vocals over a Tears for Fears instrumental. I didn't have to use a Sade accapella over its instrumental. I just played the main version of the cut in its entirety and asses were duly shooken.
The point is...that dudes who water down rap so that they can make money selling it to fools who hate rap suck without end.
Yes, I've been arguing this for years. But now dudes even have a designated carpetbaggeur venue in my town for this shit i.e. the situation is getting even worse. So thus my campaign against it must be heightened.
the whole blending 80s-with-rap thing is utterly played. I don't need to hear the cure blended with 3-6 mafia ever again. It had novelty once. Now it is pretty corny. There's this whole huge group of DJs biting that style in chicago and its getting pretty unavoidable and tedious. Like, if yr gonna do unexpected 'mashups' as a DJ style plaese to move beyond TAINTED LOVE + MIKE JONES JAWNS
that's a good look right thur.
(you can insert sarcface, in case i didn't make that clear.)
Fuck no, I wasn't there.
A good friend of mine, who is also a prominent real schitt MC around these parts, did go and he couldn't even begin to give the night as big a gasface as it deserved.
I understand that Ayres and especially Cosmo share precedents catering to real schitt audiences. That's why I think they deserve extra ribbing for now stooping to such dastardly lows.
Anyway, they had fun, we had fun, and everyone else that came out seemed to have a blast. Thanks to all our supporters in Austin and all over the tour. Every stop sofar has been great.
well, if you can't convince them to jump, i guess you could always whine about it on soul strut or write passive agressive articles about them in your local newspaper
Your dudes Bavu Blakes and Rapic Ric...you think you might be able to hook me up with their phone numbers so that I may soon get acquainted with who they may be?
Any other recommendations on what's good with Austin rap?
This passage is extraordinary.
who are you campaigning for? the keepin' it real association. hip hop is making billions of dollars.
thank god you played the "original version" of get it girl. we wouldnt want you to compromise the artistic integrity of the yin yang twins.
how old are you man? give it a rest and stop acting like the fun police. kudos on the packed house party you dj'd.
I think its pretty clear that HC is john brown from the VH1 White Rapper Show; ghetto revival for days.
