Soundset 2017 Ironlak Live Painting
Once again the party people of Minnesota descended upon the Minnesota State Fair Grounds in Minneapolis for the annual Soundset weekend. Hosted by the amazing team from Rhymesayers Entertainment, the 2017 Soundset event was the tenth anniversary of the independent Hip Hop festival, and the show they put on did not disappoint.
Over 35,000 attendees hit the festival, with a solid line-up of Hip Hop acts gracing the stage. As always, the Ironlak Live Paint was in effect, with the A-team of rap sprayers on hand to give an array of surfaces a fresh lick of paint. From custom shaped IRONLAK/ SOUNDSET panels, to trucks – no surface was safe from the fury of the Ironlak and Sugar Artists’ Acrylic spray paint.
“EWOK, MAST, RIVER, WANE, Carly Ealey, SEB, ERGOT, MUCH, NMPH, Wezz Winship, and I made sure Christmas came a good six months early – smack in the middle of the Twin City’s summer heat wave – blessing all the good children of Soundset with gifts of spray gold, and reminding the bad kids out there that despite their misgivings, Soundset was meant for the bad kid in all of us – not bad meaning bad, but bad meaning good!” –JURNE HM TGE YME
Ironlak spray paint is available at Fifth Element – 2411 Hennepin Ave, Minneapolis, MN 55405, USA
fifthelementonline.com
Shop online: Yard Master Classics, Kolour, & Sugar Artists’ Acrylic spray paint is available at great prices on shop.ironlak.com – $10 flat rate shipping (ships domestic USA only)

Wiz Khalifa | SoundSet Music Festival | Minneapolis
From jail to the stage — Wiz rocked SoundSet Music Festival in Minneapolis and spoke to Tracy G from Sway in the Morning, fresh off the stage.
"I was in jail this morning from 6a to 2p in the afternoon." Wiz tells Tracy. "And at 6p in the evening, I'm on stage."
"It feels cool," he goes on to say.
The rapper was arrested for marijuana possession after he was stopped at a checkpoint in El Paso's airport, and was released on $300 bail.
While being behind bars, he admitted to taking a selfie and signing about 10 autographs. He also joked that his mug shot looks like the cover of his new mixtape, 20 Grams.
