I had no planned coverage until 4:00pm the first day to cover Paris Texas so my time was spent conversing with the other media members in attendance...

To say I was excited to see Tyler The Creator and Kendrick was an understatement...
My day started a bit earlier for day two - I headed in and immediately went to the merch stand to grab my buddy a shirt...
Tyler’s stage set modeled that of a junkyard with stacked cars and a crane dangling over his automobile perch. The LED background was filled with different scenes depicting a constant evolution of set and setting...
This show was on a Monday as well which I thought was funny that it was one of the most lit crowds I’ve seen this year...
After dropping the heartfelt track, 'Slow Dancing in The Dark,' it was apparent to myself and many others just how talented Joji was as an artist...
