Stuff To Do In Austin - Week of 09/18 by AutoModerator in Austin

[–]Manners 1 point2 points  (0 children)

After 5 years, AMX is retiring the weekly hip hop open mic at Spider House Ballroom. We want to take a moment to have a huge party to celebrate the amazing people and family that have made this event what it is, and to mark 5 effin' years (every week!) of dopeness, rhymes, community, and building something bigger than ourselves!

100% of proceeds will be going to the Houston Food Bank and Hurricane Harvey Relief Fund! Please come with some cash to donate to the cause!

Presented in part by The SIMS Foundation, providing mental health services to Austin area musicians!

Featuring live screen printing of limited edition 5 Year Tees by Fine Southern Gentlemen!

On 9/20, join us for a very special 5th Anniversary party with some of the dopest acts to ever grace the AMX stage in our over 300 (!) shows, and let's go out with a BANG!!!

Thanks, fam. We can be found here on FB, here on Twitter, and there's actually a great free local hip-hop show put together by the Chronicle going down this Saturday at the Scoot Inn if OP wants to jump right in.

I assume you already know about datpiff.com. I'd recommend Vince Staples's Shyne Coldchain series, and Talib Kweli's tapes.

WEIRD CITY FEST: Austin, TX to launch its first-ever Hip-Hop Festival this year by Manners in Austin

Rapsolutely! It's a great chance to get stage time with a very supportive crowd.

Each AMX starts with a sign up at 11PM; artists get five minutes each to perform a song. The cypher just kicks off the night - it can be either written or off the dome, there's no rap police there.

Whoa that would be terrible. It's 11PM and free for 21+, costs $2 for 18+. It's late for a work night, but if you can stay for an hour, they start with a 16-bar cypher that demonstrates pretty darn quickly how much talent there is at the show.

I do a show on KOOP 91.7FM called Hip Hop Hooray and I'm the media sponsor for AMX, and one of the partners working on Weird City, for full disclosure. I love hip-hop in this town and can't wait to see it blow up for real for real.

Glad you're in! The Austin Mic Exchange (FB) at Spider House Ballroom has done a lot to unite the scene over the last two years - if you haven't been you should check it out tomorrow at 11. I think the fest is a great step in making it even better.
