Once again back at the W Hotel, it's DJ Jimmy Chunga, it's South by South West 2013, we're
up on the Terrace. It's a beautiful, beautiful day, it's starting to cool down a little bit
and just when the party couldn't get any sexier Le1f shows up. Hey man!
Hey, what's up, how are you guys? Welcome to the party.
Thank you, thanks. So talk to me man, is this your first South
by South West? It is, this my first South by, my first time
in Texas at all ever! You've never been to Texas at all?
No so this is really fun. You know this is my first time in Austin and
I've got to be honest I was kind of expecting to see a lot of guys in 10 gallon hats and
sequined cowboys shirts and some things like that. I did not expect to see a guy my height
with big blond braids hanging out the back of his head.
That's what they booked me for... I know, I love it, turn around, you got to
see this man's hair. Look at this! Is that not the sickest hair you've ever seen? I love
it man, it's ridiculous. So OK, talk to us, talk to us about your set here at South by
South West. What are we getting from you this time around?
I put this wieve in because I really wanted to get wild in the desert this time. I expected
to have a real fun, dusty, drunk time down here.
I love it. So that's what I'm planning to do.
How many shows have you done so far? This would be the fourth one, yeah!
And you've been received very well so far? Yeah, it's been getting better and better.
Everyone's been liking them and I've been liking them more and more.
Oh well hey, to have an artist liking his own sets which rarely happens...
It's like yeah, I actually like had a really good time yesterday, you know. It's been cool
to see everyone else's performances too. What's been the highlight, aside from playing
the festival, what's been the highlight for you so far?
There have been so many good shows that I would never be able to catch in New York all
in like what two or three streets away from me so you know. It's Serlong and Kendrick
Lamar and Mykki Blanco. You saw Serlong, is she here?
Serlong at the Fader Fort and it was like there was literally a sea of like gay men
and women like almost crying because it was like so good.
I was going to say, you said Serlong there, I almost did my spirit fingers. You know...
Serlong! Yeah, I love her, she's great! Word... and Kiddie Pie is about to go on,
one of my good friends Kiddie! I'm sure you interviewed her, she's about to rap right
now! Yeah I can't wait man, I'm really excited.
Listen thanks for coming over, nice to meet you man, good luck with your sets tonight.
Yeah it's going to be fun!
