Michael Wayne Atha aka Yelawolf
Thanks for the damn good show, Catfish Billy.
We didn't have much time to lurk the streets of Montreal due to a 4am wake up call for a 7am flight back home. Look at that dropped Impala. They gangsta up there.
They have a nice public bike rental system where you put in a credit card to use a bike then drop it back off at any other part of town where there's one of these racks. That's a nice quality of a real city. Good-bye, Montreal. We'll be back.

Montreal for the Empire Backyard Party with Yelawolf and Three 6 Mafia

Nearly half of this video is Yelawolf's show after the Contest. It was right on the deck of the ramp in front of a super hyped crew of skate rats. Here's a summary of our 48 hours in Montreal shot and edited on my iPhone.
