    It’s day three of MBE x SXSW and the party's jumping even higher(!). Tune in for New York soul singer-songwriter Kendra Morris’ ode to the mess in both her tiny apartment and her own mind, the latest from LA house-funk producer Seven Davis Jr., a Minnie Riperton classic, and a whole lot more. Plus, Austin-based , founder of the femme and gender expansive artist collective BABE (Bad Ass Bitches Elevating), hits the decks at the Rivian Electric Roadhouse for a deep, globe-trotting, and soulful set that’s buoyed by chill house beats.
