S6300120.jpg picture by jsdailyWhen I attended the Steppin Laser’s show in Atlantic City, I didn’t know what to expect from B.o.B. Based on what I had heard from mixtapes, I had made the assumption that it would be a typical hip hop show which includes a DJ and a hype man and possibly an irrelevant crew. But I was proven very wrong. I was so blown away by B.o.B‘s performance that I had to come back for more and attend his show a few days later at SOBs. Read more

Thursday, August 13th, 8p
Madison Square Garden, NYC
Tickets: $179.50-$49.50
Rating: Hot!!!!

I hate to admit it, but I was on the fence as to whether or not to attend this show. Even though I have seen some major shows like Kanye West‘s Glow in the Dark, Mary J. Blige and Jay-Z‘s Heart of the City, and Tina Turner at Madison Square Garden, I really hate the venue. For me, Madison Square Garden is too large which can often lead to feeling disconnected from the artist. On the other hand, with a combination like John Legend and India.Arie at MSG, how could I pass this up? Out of all the performers I have seen during my adult life as a music connoisseur Read more
