Spring and Summer time anthems, 2.) Absurd concoctions of jewlery and 3.) LowKey somewhere in the cut filming and Twittering (Twitter.com/LowKeyUHTN) your every move.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Fortunate for Soulja Boy, the lil homey was in the playback tent patiently waiting for his time onstage, so I could only observe so much. But since me and his manager, Money Mike are pretty cool, I decided to hit up the big fella to see if S.Beezy would be down for a quick FlipCam interview.</p>

<p>Hmmmmm, a &#8220;Turn Ya Swag On&#8221; remix video? That could be interesting. Out of all the remixes recorded (Jeezy, Fab, Jada, Wayne, Keri, Maino, Jim Jones, among others) who would actually make the visual hot?</p>
<p>Sincerely</p>

<p style="text-align: left;">It wouldn&#8217;t be Spring Bling without a &#8220;Top 10&#8243;<span id="more-18"></span>While at Spring Bling this past weekend, I observerd a number of things that tickled me purple. From hair do&#8217;s and side conversations to executive chitter chatter and Christina Milian DEMOLISIHING a set of crab legs while she walked around backstage, I saw and heard it all.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">And if you were following me on Twitter (Twitter.com/LowKeyUHTN), I&#8217;m sure you caught wind of all my reactions to the aforementioned topics.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">However, a couple items found their way past me. But thanks to the great eye of my photogrpaher, who captured a little over 5,000 photos, I was able to rifle though her enitre catalogue and really get down to business.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">As always, my commentary is meant to be cause no harm, more so, awareness to some of the absurd ish that goes down this time of year. Remember- IT&#8217;S ALL JOKES!</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Without further ado, check out the<em> Top 10 Things That Made Me Laugh @ Spring Bling. ENJOY</em>!</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">
<p style="text-align: left;"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://i268.photobucket.com/albums/jj33/LowKey3_photos/DSC_0972.jpg" alt="" width="322" height="213" /></p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><strong>10.) Pastor Troy is STILL walking around with that ridiculous wrestling belt. </strong></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">
<p style="text-align: left;"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://i268.photobucket.com/albums/jj33/LowKey3_photos/DSC_0695.jpg" alt="" width="355" height="235" /></p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><strong>9.) He really thought I was going to use this photo for good use. Even the camera man behind him knew I was up to no good. </strong></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">
<p style="text-align: left;"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://i268.photobucket.com/albums/jj33/LowKey3_photos/DSC_0975.jpg" alt="" width="372" height="254" /></p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><strong>8.) No lie, this kid was in every production tent, media tent and backstage restricted area. An yet, he STILL looked confused every time I saw him. </strong></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">
<p style="text-align: left;"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://i268.photobucket.com/albums/jj33/LowKey3_photos/DSC_0749.jpg" alt="" width="379" height="249" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>7.) Here&#8217;s how a backstage conversation between Mike Epps and a BET stage producer unfolded. Producer: Hey Mike, can you give us a mic check. Mike Epps: Breaker breaker 1-9, this is Mike Epps ready to fu*k some sh*t up.</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://i268.photobucket.com/albums/jj33/LowKey3_photos/DSC_0347.jpg" alt="" width="403" height="267" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>6.) That&#8217;s right Soulja Boy, you need to hang your head in shame for wearing that outfit. I don&#8217;t know if you were going for the snug look, but it&#8217;s STILL baggy lol! </strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://i268.photobucket.com/albums/jj33/LowKey3_photos/DSC_1318.jpg" alt="" width="417" height="276" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>5.) A life sized mint rapping onstage to Rick Ross&#8217; &#8220;Magnificent&#8221;. </strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://i268.photobucket.com/albums/jj33/LowKey3_photos/DSC_0370.jpg" alt="" width="414" height="274" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>4.) Willie taking a picture with the &#8220;I can make Q cry on command. Matter fact he&#8217;s in the tent behind me wiping his tears right now&#8221; smirk. </strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://i268.photobucket.com/albums/jj33/LowKey3_photos/DSC_0772.jpg" alt="" width="401" height="264" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>3.) The GS Boyz are really cool, but I caught myself attempting to burn that shirt and that was definitely worth a HUGE chuckle. </strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://i268.photobucket.com/albums/jj33/LowKey3_photos/DSC_1156.jpg" alt="" width="372" height="246" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>2.) He REALLY thought this photo was being used for a good purpose, lol! </strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://i268.photobucket.com/albums/jj33/LowKey3_photos/DSC_0762.jpg" alt="" width="369" height="243" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>1.) Dear Baby Jesus, Please help them and then help me remove the image of the &#8220;Dirty Jump Rope Weave Twins&#8221;. Sincerely LowKey</strong></p>

<p>It just wouldn&#8217;t be Spring Bling without these type of moments! <span id="more-16"></span>Just so you know, I&#8217;m definitely not into poking fun at people, but some things need to be addressed as a point of reference in regards to things that shouldn&#8217;t happen during events like this. Now of course, if you&#8217;re comfortable in your own skin, then being caught on the &#8220;Look What I Saw&#8221; camera really shouldn&#8217;t matter.</p>
<p>However, if you stepped out the house KNOWING it could be a bad look for you if the wrong person captured the questionable attire, hair do or anything else absurd you were covered in then&#8230;..YOU BROUGHT IT ON YOURSELF. With that said, here&#8217;s the first installment to &#8220;Look What I Saw @ Spring Bling&#8221;. ENJOY! And remember, at the end of the day, ITS ALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL JOKES!</p>

<p>Ace Hood is BACK! <span id="more-14"></span>Florida&#8217;s #1 Rookie of the Year, Ace Hood, slid through Spring Bling this weekend to judge one of the many contests (don&#8217;t ask me which one). Since I hadn&#8217;t spoken to him in a good minute, I figured a quick 2 minute interview wouldn&#8217;t hurt since both of us were pretty much unoccupied backstage at the moment. We didn&#8217;t get to deep in our conversation, just covered the basics; career, life, Spring Bling.</p>
<p>Towards the latter part of the discussion, he did reveal he was planning on releasing his sophomore project later this year entitled, Ruthless. Though he didn&#8217;t have a release date attached to the project, he did mention several minor details about the first single. Well, he only told me it was produced by The Runners, lol.</p>
<p>Anyway, since this is Spring Bling POV Blog Week, I thought it would be cool to bring the BET You Haven&#8217;t Heard This Franchise over to this part of town, you know, the Spring Bling edition. ENJOY!</p>
<p><a href="http://www.zshare.net/audio/57961294a22d9a3d/"><strong>Ace Hood ft. Akon &amp; T-Pain- Overtime |Prod. By The Runners|</strong></a></p>
<p>Like it, Love it or Leave it??????</p>

Did you really think I was going to let allllll this foolery that took place in West Palm Beach fly right over my head and into another bloggers WordPress post? C&#8217;mooooooooooon, you guys know Low better than that. And if you don&#8217;t, I suggest you get to know me!</p>
<p>Tonight, I&#8217;m going to keep it lite with just a simple intro in regards to what&#8217;s about to take place around these parts for the next 5-6 days. With over 2,000 pictures in the stash and a flurry of artist interviews, I think I have enough content to last until next year&#8217;s Spring Bling.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m not going to reveal what&#8217;s to come because it&#8221;ll be your job to check back every now and then to see what interesting Spring Bling tidbits I throw on the POV wall. So until my next post&#8230;..IM GONE!</p>
