About Last Night: YG’s Krazy Life Rides High In Houston [@yg @djmustard @simplycecilia @gregnoire]
On April 17 the West and Left Coasts collided as YG rode his My Krazy Life wave into Houston. While Dorrough has found immense support from the West Coast since his breakthrough on a national level, there were some among the crowd confused as to why a Dallas native was opening for YG while in […]
About Last Night: ScHoolboy Q – Warehouse Live (3/26)
A sold out show at Warehouse Live is something to be proud of, for anybody. A sold out show at Warehouse Live that is on time, flows seamlessly and has little to no technical difficulties is a feat. A feat that ScHoolboy Q and the folks at TDE accomplished last night. Not only was the […]
SXSW: Lady Gaga Gets Puked On, Stradles Bull And More In #BoldStage Show
After fusses over building permits and stage setups, Lady Gaga made the most of his SXSW Thursday night by doing things only Gaga would think of and consider. She showed up on the Doritos #BoldStage outside of Stubbs BBQ a little after 10 PM tied to a roasting spit like a piece of Texas BBQ […]
SXSW: The Throne Returns For A SXSW Encore [@s_c_ @kanyewest #wtt #sxsw]
I often joke that Jay Z has never, intentionally listened to Yeezus, the album made by his understudy, “little brother” and Chicago’s own golden child in Kanye West. Surely he doesn’t play it inside the Carter house to lull Blue Ivy to sleep and definitely not while Beyoncé’s around for them to juxtapose being hip […]

About Friday Night: Nipsey Hussle – Warehouse Live [@nipseyhussle]
Editor’s Note: Normally we would give you a rundown of what happened at a concert, traditional journalism style. Remember our Disclosure review at Warehouse? Well … this isn’t that (and nor should it be). Instead, these are the first hand accounts of a journalist who stuck through some cold to let her Bay Area/California roots […]
About Last Night: Disclosure Arrives, Rocks & Leaves At Warehouse Live [@disclosure @warehouselive]
The only thing that could damper Disclosure’s demeanor Wednesday night and well into Thursday morning at Warehouse Live was that they couldn’t play any further. EDM shows aren’t that notorious for not starting on time (that distinction belongs to rap shows), but they can really start almost near Houston’s mandatory 2 AM curfew. By the […]
About Last Night: Sevyn Streeter Doesn’t “Stop” At Stereo Live [@sevyn]
It may have been a private event but like most things in Houston, Sevyn Streeter’s “Arrive Big” event with Heineken & 97.9 The Box brought out plenty of faces — not just to mingle but to also hear the rising “It Won’t Stop” singer perform. Clad in a sheer black top and jeans, the woman […]
On The Social Experiment Of Chance The Rapper [@chancetherapper @wescoremore @bizzyb420]
Last Saturday at Warehouse Live, 20-year-old Chicago artist, Chance the Rapper took the members of his sold-out show on a mass acid trip full of colorful lights, sweat and footwork during his Social Experiment Tour. In short, it was awesome. The lucid show that was the Social Experiment actually began outside the venue at his […]
About Last Night: Propain Rides Slab At Warehouse Live [@propain713 @donniehouston]
There are few artists within the city that can match or surpass the sheer passion that Propain exudes. His love of the craft both apparent and genuine. While he made mention of the laid back demeanor of the crowd, he revved up even the most hardened souls in the building found a song to nod […]
