SXSW and The Recording Academy present a special event at the George Washington Carver Center. Grammy® Award winning Houston-based rap artist Chamillionaire sits down with HoustonSoReal's Matt Sonzala for a motivational interview, followed by a short performance. Local favorites Gutta Gang take the stage after Chamillionaire, and the music wraps up with a performance by New Orleans/Austin hybrid Cyril Neville and Tribe 13, which will put chili in your gumbo.

This is a free, all-ages event that will kick off SXSW Music 2007 honoring the innovations of African-American artists in popular music.
