Support the independent voice of Dallas and help keep the future of Dallas Observer free.
BET's "Rap City" comes on at 4 in the afternoon in this here time zone, which means that in, oh, about five minutes or so, you can flip on your cable box and see Dallas' own Play-N-Skillz appearing on the show. (Sorry for the late notice, but we just heard.)
Anyway, this is just step one in another big week for the half-Venezuelan, half-Mexican brothers behind Chamillionaire's "Ridin'" and Lil Wayne's "Got Money." All throughout the upcoming weekend, the duo will be hosting its 2nd Annual Play-N-Skillz All-Star Weekend.
What's that, you ask? Oh, just a weekend full of parties at various spots throughout town that will feature the likes of Lil Wayne, Bun B, Plies, Bone Thugs and Harmony, Talib Kweli, and various NFL and NBA stars. Nothing big. --Pete Freedman
Keep the Dallas Observer Free... Since we started the Dallas Observer, it has been defined as the free, independent voice of Dallas, and we would like to keep it that way. Offering our readers free access to incisive coverage of local news, food and culture. Producing stories on everything from political scandals to the hottest new bands, with gutsy reporting, stylish writing, and staffers who've won everything from the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi feature-writing award to the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism. But with local journalism's existence under siege and advertising revenue setbacks having a larger impact, it is important now more than ever for us to rally support behind funding our local journalism. You can help by participating in our "I Support" membership program, allowing us to keep covering Dallas with no paywalls.
