Good times on Saturday night at the Cashmere Agency and Stampede Management Cali invasion at Austin’s Club de Ville. I was drunk on stage and somewhere Mel D. Cole was still flickin’ away. Nice!
A tribute to Bun B in Texas? Now that’s a good idea. Before taking their stroll down memory lane, Mr. Port Arthur and the other Jewish cat in rap named Rosenberg took the time to give me a preview to the proceedings that went down last Thursday. It ended up being a pretty good interview and I got it all on tape. Hmm.

It was an almost all-rock show that was headlined by a coupla hip-hop legends. Guess who? Ha. And guess what, the crowd loved it. Mel captured the madness.
From Friday night’s show at the Mohawk Patio, here’s another new one from the ATL Brave’s upcoming Fashionably Late mixtape. I can dig it.
During Nas’ performance last week in The Aloha State, RZA blessed the stage and informed the crowd that “Wu-Tang Clan Ain’t Nuthin’ Ta F Wit”. Think they got the message?

Above is the cover to Donnis’ new mixtape, Fashionably Late. Below is a new cut from it produced by Needlz. Underneath that, the tracklist to the sampler. See, good things come in three’s.
If you’re still sleepin’ on Yela like I was two weeks ago, I suggest you wake up. Ha. Got a full three-part interview with dude on the way, but in the meantime, he speaks on the upcoming visual behind his next release off Trunk Muzik. Let’s see if Rap Radar really ends up with that exclusive.
Mr. Village Slum Mel D. Cole agreed to shoot some RR exclusive flicks during his time down south. One of the many events covered occured on Friday night at the Scoot Inn where the lil’ underground rap label that could celebrated their 15th year in the game. Witness the festivity through Mel’s eyes. He’s a bad muthafucka.
A year ago, Gangsta Gibbs was in the clink. Last week, he was one of the biggest MCs in demand during my time in Austin mobbin’ with the homie Mel D. Cole. Here backstage at Urb’s South by South showcase at the Light Bar, Gary Indiana’s finest speaks on his progress, the Jay Rock-Ice Cube disagreement, and his love for Scarface.
This is a great post highlighting Quentin Miller’s unique journey and creative independence. It is always inspiring to see artists who continue to follow their own path and express their true vision despite challenges. The idea of taking the road less traveled connects with many life experiences, whether in music, personal growth, or exploring new destinations. A journey filled with discovery and unforgettable moments can also be found through a Serengeti Safari, where nature and adventure create stories that last forever. Thanks for sharing this inspiring video and celebrating creativity.
