DESCRIPTION:
As SXSW 2014 kicks off, Kosha Dillz gives us a glimpse into how he does the festival, with the latest video from his documentary in progress. "Rolling with Kosha Dillz -- SXSW 2013" paints a hectic picture of what its like to run around with "the hardest working guy in hip hop" during the Austin festival. Set to the tracks "We Are Different" and "Where My Homies Be" from his latest album Awkard In A Good Way, the video is a chronological yet haphazard string of mostly just the first moments of the clips shot during the four days that Kosha was followed last year by Darah Golub, Dillz' documentarian of 3+ years, who herself is in a band that will be at SX, (Lily and the Parlour Tricks), and whose ongoing autobiographical doc project goes by the name The New York Love Songs.

The video is not only a taste of Dillz -- his hustle and flow, how he interacts and takes full advantage of every situation -- its also a glimpse into what SXSW is like, and it is more insight into the doc in progress. From arriving in TX, we see Dillz with his festival sidekick young DJ Sam Sidereel and emcee Flex Matthews; maneuvering his way into a Univision street interview; hosting his own Oy Vey party, sneaking in to meet Carson Daly at an Angel Haze show; teaching rap to yoga babies; sneaking into a show to say what up to pete rosenberg; rocking the clothes he is given along the way; watching Raekwon and of course, rocking the mic all day (from on top of the bar, at a hipstamatic brunch, at an international showcase etc), and staying up all night on the laptop, sleeping on the floor, never forgetting to tweet, pass out a card, shake a hand, and smile.This video portrays the nonstop ride that is the hustle of Rami Matan Even Esh, aka Kosha Dillz. All this in 4 days is typical for Dillz.

But ultimately -- as Asher Roth says in a heartfelt moment at the very end of the 4 minutes -- this short video is--- like the forthcoming documentary--about the power of music and the dedication to pursuing a life in it. Look for more from The New York Love Songs and Kosha Dillz as they continue The Hustle to Happiness.
