18 AUG - AKON Live in Concert + DJ Koflow + Beats Society

i'm surprised they didn't say Koncert instead of Concert haha. i thought the pun police would have caught up to that one
 
The Beats Society yo-yos was cussed at even before they came on. The crowd became increasingly irritated during their performances and everyone around me wasn't even bothered as they were all chatting among themselves.

I gotta be honest.

Beats Society quality of Hip Hop is mundane and unexciting. With repetitive beats and nothing new to offer, they seriously have got to have something interesting to prove their worth.

Heck I was clueless on what the hell the dancers were doing on stage. One of the audience commented that they look like 3 clowns in oversize shirts doing circus moves.

To the rappers especially the one in the hoodie, if you're gonna dress up with the 'bling-bling' and whatever trendy, do sound as good as you look.

Anyways, Akon's concert was short but I kind of enjoyed myself nonetheless despite the embarassment by BS. (No, I don't mean BullShit; but it could work in the same context though.)
 
wah azly ur review damn goood. i echo u. but akon performance was solid, especially the last few songs when he almost caused a chaos among fans, jumping right into the fans. i became a security even, trying to hold back the barricade. good show.
 
Massive good chaos. CCB I'm sooooooo tired.

I really pity the guy, he had like 17 interviews with the press back to back. Towards the end he looked positively quite shack. Sat in the limo with him and we had to clear traffic to get his butt into the marquee.

all in all: The concert was quite happening. I actually enjoyed myself despite my reservations on hiphop/rnb. Will have some youtubes up soon for everyone. I kinda got to check which ones I can put up though.

Oh and amaka got drunk btw. :)

Willy: The mixer is quebec's - Vestax.

and it can't be Koncert because their contract strictly stipulates "Smack that party" as the official title of the shows in his tour

EXCLUSIVE AKON INTERVIEW

concert =dope, we need Eminem and Kanye West.
Beyonce coming to Sg soon yeah, Nov 2 or 1st?

i was looking from backstage and we could hear the booing of Beats Society rather loud. one mat salleh from the crowd screamed: "THAT AINT HIPHOP, THAT AINT RAP, TATS A CIRCUS ACT!!" kinda rhymes. I dunno why is there so much Beat Society hating anyway.

Agreed tat Akon is exhausted, he said he flew in the morning 2 Singapore and gotta flow out by 2moro or by evening time

and unlike the other boring interviews, here is a more indepth personal one:

The feedback I'm getting (online and offline) about beats society is teaching me that we got to get a little bit stricter when considering locals to open for major shows.

I honestly didn't think they were that bad, they are quite young, so give them a chance.
