This year was a tremendous one for the annual SXSW Music Festival in Austin, Texas, and VIBE was there every step of the way. From the wild concerts to unexpected guests — 2015’s week long music-free-for-all was an unforgettable experience for our entire staff.
While down on the concert grounds, VIBE also teamed up with our friends at Brisk for a walking mural series of sorts. VIBE’s Music Editor, Mikey Fresh, Hip-HopDX’s Editor-In-Chief Justin Hunte and Global Grind personality Blogxilla joined the festivities as they handed out limited edition t-shirts created just for this event.
The response was overwhelming, and they gave away the daily supply within minutes each day. We also rolled with the Brisk family to shows from the likes of Action Bronson, Yelawolf and more. But our surprise trip to see a live taping of Jimmy Kimmel Live was the icing on the cake. Check out Guillermo getting into the Brisk spirit in a special live aired segment.
One thing is for sure, we’ll be back next year!
