Kanye West: "Gone" + "Drive Slow" + "Spaceship" (Video)

More footage keeps surfacing from the G.O.O.D. Music showcase at SXSW. This time it comes from RapRadar. First up, Kanye gets some assistance from Consequence and GLC for a medley of "Gone" and "Drive Slow." The second video is the performance of my favorite Kanye song of all-time, "Spaceship ft. GLC & Consequence." All video to surface thus far indicates it was a pretty special evening at SXSW, although Pitchfork said otherwise about 'Ye's showing:
West's own questionable engagement spoke volumes. He flubbed lyrics on "We Major" and "Diamonds From Sierra Leone", and on "Crack Music" he quit two lines into the first verse, admitting, "That's all I remember." He was unapologetic about these mistakes. That was then, before Kanye made stadium rap and wounded robot laments.
Whatever, still wish I could have been there. Maybe a trip to Austin is in the works for 2010.
