During the Def Jam/Vibe throwdown at SXSW—surely the dopest of all Austin confabs—label ruler Tunji Balogun reminisces about the halcyon days when you could spend the weekend in the Four Seasons lobby texting people who were eight feet away. Seen thinking our absence is more delicious than the finest Texas BBQ are (l-r) Balogun, Pap Chanel, Marqus Clae, Jadakiss, Armani White and Def Jam/4th & Broadway President LaTrice Burnette.
Seen observing that Rap Caviar is even better with Hip-Hop Toast Points are (l-r) Def Jam A&R player Shana Sherman, D Sturdy & Philly Goats, Saadi Four and Balogun.
