Some dope footage of Kenan Bell performing with a full live band at VIBE’s “Respect The West” Showcase at SXSW. Up top check out his performance of one of my favourite cuts, “Like This,” and after the jump check out “Fruit & Vegetables,” “Brothers and Sisters” and “T.G.I.F” (accompanied by Aceyalone.)
Look out for a blog discussing his experience at SXSW from Kenan soon! (Hopefully).

whats the good word?
In a few hours, I’ll be boarding a flight
from LAX to JFK to work on my sophomore LP
and then drive back to Cali playing shows
i still haven’t packed yet…
but i’ve been planning outfits in my mind
can’t go to NYC without the Carhartts
and i can’t leave Cali without Chucks
and Cortezes and Wallabees and Palladiums and karate shoes
“back in the day, when i was young…
i’m not a kid anymore but somedays i sit and wish i was a kid again” -Ahmad the Great
waited my whole life for this moment
no better time than the present
and i’ve never felt better
kissed my girl goodbye and told my Mother
I loved her
You can’t prepare for the future
Anymore than you can prepare for LIFE
but im ready for the world…OH Sheila!
Finally preparing for take off
but i set flight long ago
and i’m afraid of heights
so i’ll never look down
stay up
