Blu- Pardon
Blu & Exile- In Remembrance of Me…
Graduated from high school on this day 3 years ago, how time flies…
that blu and j*davey show was incredible.
the people i was with were pretty much the most hype ones in the building and that added to the good time. i met this girl that goes to spelman and she’s mad cool too. i also met this other cool girl from clark, just some good times. anyway the show opened with this dude name dj golden and he was spinning most of the atlanta concert favorites like “elevators” “dirty south” “luchini” “shimmy shimmy ya” “chief rocka” that kinda stuff. the crowd got mad hype when he played “yonkers” and “french!” though which was cool to me. however, the crowd got the most hype when he put on that motherfuckin “country shit,” it’s amazing how transcendent big k.r.i.t. is already.
anyway the opening acts were hit and miss. the best one to me was lyric jones, she can spit pretty good and she did a song with esperanza spalding which i thought was pretty impressive.
the most annoying thing at the show was that people didn’t seem to be very hype and that theme would continue pretty much until late in the j*davey set.
blu came on and did a couple tracks from below the heavens like “simply amazin” “no greater love” and “my world is…” then he went into a bunch of newer shit like “slngbngrs!”, “everything’sok” and his verse from the “i’m beamin” remix. then he did some shit that madlib produced which sounded pretty impressive. his set wasn’t as good as i’d hoped because i would’ve liked to hear like one more track from below the heavens and at least 1 song from her favorite colo(u)r. at any rate overall he was just spitting and i liked that because there were good lines snuck in there.
finally j*davey prepared to perform. def sounds opened for her and his set was pretty good as well. he gave out glow sticks and performed some really good songs, the highlight was when he passed out forks, spoons and knives and did a song that would’ve made the based god proud. finally miss jack davey arrived on stage and man she’s skinny in person but she is soooo beautiful. she started with their cover of “smells like teen spirit” and went from there doing stuff their latest album and older material. she caressed my hand when she was singing a song and it was magical. then she was getting ready to do the song “mama’s back” and she pointed at this chick standing kinda close to me and my friends and told her to come on-stage, then she just started inviting anyone on stage so i jumped the railing and went up there. she said their flight was delayed so that’s what took them so long, so she wanted fans to experience her up close. we ended up essentially raging and dancing with her on stage and it was awesome. she came back out for an encore and did their song “rain check” and then it was done.
ultimately it was really awesome, and the best part is i get to see kendrick lamar tomorrow and my only class in the morning got cancelled so i can sleep in.
Blu & Exile- In Remembrance of Me
One of the only rap songs that damn near made me shed a tear…
