SXSW 2017 is upon us... and it doesn't matter if you have the app, booklet or a friend to take you to everything... it can be a lot to handle. It's an amazing week of events. You can meet tons of people and see more performances in a week than you can the rest of the year.
If you are a hip-hop fan like we are, you've got a lot to look forward to. Plan ahead and check out this list of hip-hop events we recommend.
Enjoy!
