Kanye West and Jay-Z rock the Samsung stage last night in Austin, TX
By Tamara El

Kanye West and Jay-Z took center stage at SXSW last night to perform their hit singles “Otis”, “H.A.M”, and “Niggaz in Paris” from the two collaborating on the 2011 album Watch the Throne. Yeezy opened up the performance with his verse from Otis, which sent the crowd into an immediate frenzy. In a packed house with people packed in from wall to wall, Jigga addressed the crowd and then performed his verse. With cellphones in hand and rocking back and forth, the audience joined in on the countdown when Jay did the outro to the song “Niggaz in Paris.” The two ended the performance with the smash hit H.A.M; with the two rappers standing on top of 3 cubes delivering their verses and moving the crowd one last time.
