No actual musicians on stage playing instruments, just one dude surrounded by hype men.

I feel like rap concerts should be more consumed like poetry. Guy does his performance, then answers audience questions on the deeper meaning behind his lyrics, and then they snap their fingers in approval.

There are some exceptions of rappers who shouldnt do it like this but most should.

Mam

OP need to make some sense of some b****es

rappers that use live musicians in their concerts >>>>>>>

glow in the dark tour was the peak concert

Why do musicians need to be present? Hip hip was always a DJ (who was featured) and a an emcee (who controlled the crowd)

How does that make no sense?

shut up

OP is the reason why I don’t take white people’s opinions on hip hop seriously

probably only thing which bothers me with rap concerts is them using backtracking but its fine

well the problem is most rappers just don't sound good live, so the time they perform songs should be reduced and it should be more focused on lyrics discussion and some finger snapping

nah op said snap their fingers

OP listen to Queen and gtfo here

Give me your take @op on this one

He said Rappers should discuss their lyrics with the crowd that‘s like saying the artists should always say the meaning behind their art bruh it‘s either you understand it or not

OP a c**

Obvious troll, finger snapping thing was too much of a tell

because over the decades what used to be an artform itself that emcees actually took seriously (performance) has been reduced to young niggas with abnormally horrible stamina (seriously it's scary how bad of breath control some of these new niggas have live.) walking/running around on stage just "rhyming over the words!" jadakiss voice

and also, you can have both. One of the best rap shows I've ever seen was Common and he had live musicians and a dj playing the beat too

Telling you man this tweet will really be forever relevant

Snap their fingers in approval lmao. What are you on

Hell yeah this looks fun. The type of concert where I would shoot dope before it before lighting my wacky tobbacky.

unfortunately most rap concerts are nothing like this
