i was pretty close to the stage. i got there early to make sure i got a good spot. man was this performance ill. he did a couple classics from "it ain't hard to tell", to "made you look", to "got yourself a gun". he even did his verse from "if i ruled the world" and two singles from his upcoming album, "nigger". fucking... A.
but i got the feeling that nas knew i was in the crowd. why? cuz that kid did my song man. that's right, "one mic". i totally creamed my pants and definitely lost my voice reciting the lyrics to this classic hit. let me tell you i havent been to too many concerts but this one i will definitely never forget. he performed that song with so much feeling and emotion, the crowd went nuts. and he was feeling the crowd too which made the night even better, everyone knew the words to all his tracks which definitely got him going.
during the gaps in between songs, people (including myself) kept cheering for him to do his untouchable classic "ether". unfortunately he did not. guess that's what happens when you sign to the same label of the dude you once had the most highly acclaimed hip-hop battle in history with. regardless, it was a dope night. it has inspired me to attend many concert this summer. next up... summer jam '08 and then rock the bells, July 27 baby. hopefully plus many many more.
