Win a Trip to SXSW with Kia’s “Playlist for Your Soul” Promotion!

Posted: 04 Feb 2009 03:42 PM PST

Have you seen the new Kia Soul? I love television and sports but I also like  soul2010_08_jpg checking out any new vehicles on the market. I've got to say that I think it's really cute! It comes in 8 cool colors/4 trim levels and has an industry-leading 10-year/100,000 powertrain warranty! For more information, visit www.kiasoul.com.

Currently, Kia is running a "Playlist for Your Soul" promotion. Participants are asked to submit their favorite playlist and whichever playlist receives the most votes wins a chance to go to SXSW (South-by-South-West festival in Austin, Texas!). I wish I could go!

Why am I telling you about this? Because I love my readers and want you to have TWO chances to win a great prize. You can enter the "Playlist for Your Soul" contest and you can also enter to win a $50 gas card right here on Hip Hop Roll! With things being so tough in today's economy, $50 in gas can go a long way!

ENTER TO WIN

For a chance to win the $25 gas card, leave me a comment about what you would do with the extra gas. There's no right or wrong answers. Of course, don't forget to enter Kia's "Playlist for Your Soul" for a chance to win a trip to SXSW!

CONTEST ENDS FEBRUARY 10 at 11:59pm PST.

Wu-Tang Wednesday: Wu-Tang’s RZA Wants To Be A Film Director - Interview

Posted: 04 Feb 2009 11:13 AM PST

Being a Grammy award winning artist and music director might not qualify him as a movie director, but RZA of the Wu-Tang Clan disagrees.

RZA - Wu-Tang Clan

In an interview with ShockHound RZA revealed that he would like to do more in the film industry.

"Producing an album, I think like a movie director anyway. When I was making all those albums at the beginning of our careers, I was making a one-hour movie that you put in your CD player when driving in your car."

I mean he has a point. Making a good album means telling a story that can be followed through the tracks - not just jumbling a bunch of lazy hits on a single CD. Well lets hope that he does as well in the film as he has in the music industry.
