Texas-bred rapper Paul Wall is very familiar with Austin's annual South by Southwest music and arts festival, which he performed at during its early start.
"I remember performing my first show out there with me and Chamillionaire. As a matter of fact, even my wife was there, she's in a singing group but she performed a show at South By Southwest. To see how far it's come, now you have Kanye West and Jay-Z performing there, so to see how far it's come is amazing. Especially in terms of hip-hop, and music in general, it's the biggest live music event. Worldwide its huge but for hip-hop to be a part of it with as big as its become, it's amazing. And it's great because it takes place right in our backyard, in Austin, Texas."
South by Southwest kicked off on March 9 and will run through March 18.
