Good on ya, mates!

(That’s a little deeper in Aussie slang than the obvious “g’day”)

I’m reporting live via my hotel room in Sydney. I’m out here doing the Good Vibrations festival. In Australia they have these festivals that hit multiple cities. It’s like being part of a traveling circus for 10 days. A traveling techno circus. At every one of these shows I’m doing an A-Trak & Kid Sister set in one tent and then I run over to the main tent and do the Kanye show.

I had one more week at home after that, and then I hit the road for, well, 2 months. I started off in Detroit where we did a Kanye show during Superbowl week. Freeway was at that show. His beard is longer than ever, like at least 6 inches of beard power. And he has a grill now, so he looks like a superhero. From there I went to New York to play at the Rub, and you can check out that Fader diary for a detailed rundown of the Grammys which came right after that. It’s juicier than anything I’ve ever written on my own site!

I’d like to start this update with a few links:

I wrote a diary of my Grammy experience for the Fader blog

MTV.com said that Tom Cruise liked my solo…

And GLC made this ghetto-ass iMovie masterpiece of a video for Chi State of Mind, which is the track I produced.

Now to pick up where the last update left off… I went to France in mid-January to promote the “Oh No You Didn’t!” CD. I’d been wanting to play in Paris for a long time and reconnect with the French cousins, but somehow there were always scheduling issues when I’d go to Europe. So I was really looking forward to this trip. And it didn’t disappoint!
