It's Train with Young Hollywood and we are sitting at South by Southwest in Austin with Austin Mahone.

What's up?

How's it going?

Good.

So we're kind of like in a secret location right now.

We're backstage at the iTunes Music Festival and you're about to perform with Pitbull.

I'm excited.

It's going to be a good time.

So you just flew in with Pit.

Yeah, I flew in with Pit and uh.

Of course, you come on back to Miami with me.

You know, you just did a music video.

an awesome song called, yeah, yeah.

I'm so not a singer.

I should have just let you do that.

No, so yeah, I just uh I put the video out and uh you know, it's pretty cool cuz it looks like the floor is moving and uh you know.

Is it really moving though?

I was going to ask you like.

No, no, it's not.

Okay.

I was going to say, it really did look like everything was fully just like moving around you and you're just.

No, we had like a camera on like a like a wall and we were just like moving like a room and it made it look like the floor is moving.

That's kind of amazing.

I mean, it really is super high-tech.

Like you look like you're like in some futuristic, you know, lights flashing and like it's fully on the beat of the song.

Yeah, it looks pretty pretty sick.

And it's really like a very like Pitbull was almost like a perfect addition to that song, right?

Cuz it's so that style.

It's really up beat and positive and just makes you want to dance.

Exactly.

Pitbull's great.

He always sounds great on songs.

What was like the move that I mean like your breakdance move.

You were like doing some crazy like.

I was doing random stuff.

Like I would just like feeling the music.

I I didn't know what I was just blacked out and I was just going in.

So you were fully just doing that?

That was like on the spot freestyle.

I was just freestyle.

This is talent.

This is some serious talent right here.

I have to just be a little cliche.

I'm with Austin in Austin.

Pitbull actually tweeted that.

Did you see his tweet?

Really?

I didn't.

He goes, it only makes sense to have Austin in Austin.

I didn't see that tweet.

That's funny though.

I mean, it's perfect.

We're in like the coolest city in the world in Texas.

And you're from Texas.

I am.

I'm from San Antonio.

I'm from Dallas.

So we got the Texas thing.

Texas buddy.

Yes.

What do you love about Texas?

Um, I love, I miss the barbecue, of course, the sweet tea and the wide open planes and fields.

And you've been to Austin, right?

Or have you been in Austin?

Yeah, like like twice.

But this is your first South by Southwest.

Yes.

First time.

So you have you had a chance to have any barbecue out here?

What's like your what's some of your go-to spots?

I haven't had a chance to have any barbecue in Austin, but um I like uh Bill Miller's and and other stuff.

It's classic.

Are you like, do you like Mexican food?

I love Mexican food.

I love enchiladas, tacos, queso.

Queso is only a Texas thing, I feel.

Of course.

At least not a California thing.

It's not it's not the same in Miami.

We have Cuban food there.

And so, you know, Agufina Flavor Splash.

You know, they've got tons of awesome flavors.

So what sort of like what are you doing with the flavors?

What do you love?

Which is your favorite flavor?

My favorite flavor is the uh Kiwi.

And uh it's cool because it's like um it's basically water and uh it just tastes amazing and it's fun.

And uh I don't know if you saw the commercial.

Do you see it?

Yeah, I did see it and it was awesome.

It was really dope actually.

Yeah, it was cool because I actually had my music video almost.

Exactly.

Like I had my best friends in there and like usually people like cast like random people to be your friend, but I actually had my actual friends, so it was pretty dope.

One thing about your fans, your fans are called Mahomies.

And they're crazy and they're amazing.

Can you do a good impression of a Mahomie fan?

Uh, what what's been some of the craziest moments?

I would say I would say um my first show on my tour.

I was doing.

I was doing a meet and greet upstairs and uh there was these girls down below that were throwing rocks at the window to try to get my attention.

Rocks?

One girl threw a rock so hard.

It went through the window and it sounded like someone was like shot like shooting at the building and I was getting scared.

It was pretty.

Guys.

Take it easy.

I thought it was funny though.

So what are you looking forward to tonight?

I mean, you're going to have a huge awesome performance with Pitbull.

Yeah.

Singing your new song, yeah.

I'm excited to uh go out there and perform and hopefully I'll gain some new fans from this.

He's about to go on stage.

Peace.
