Last night's concert hosted by Power 105.1 was eventful! Artists such as J. Holiday, & Trey Songz we the headliners along with Bobby V. and others performed. There were several surprise guests in the building including Ray J - who I must say really impressed me when under pressure to keep the crowd from throwing tomatoes on the stage because they were running behind schedule, grabbed the mike and started singing Acapella! He actually sounded really good too. Then Akon came out - yes Akon for all those who like him.. (no point intended but he's not me favorite). Then others like DJ clue showed up, Beenie Man (who has a hot single coming out soon)and even Jermain Duprie was in the building.
There were several up and coming artists that performed as openers. One in particular, who sounded like D' Angelo, was really good, but he never said his name!!!
Lesson of the Blog: Granted we came in a little late, so he probably said it when he came out, but when you are a new artist and get the opportunity to take the stage, you better be saying your name every five seconds! That is so important. I actually liked him and probably would have looked him up, but now he has made it to much work to find out who he is and has lost my interest. Artists out there - remember to state your name several times when performing and to also plug where people can find out more about you and your music. If not people will forget about you the moment you walk off that stage and you will be left with giving a free show and wasting your marketing dollars.
So all in all the show was good, J. Holiday did his thing - J. you are the best! He sang his whole set. Bobby was ok - a little to much fluff for me and not enough singing, but that's just my thought. Finally Trey Songz performed. He has a great energy to him and boy has he grown up...
