Method and Red Man's classics steal the show

August 12, 2009 by bb-pawprint

Recently, I went to a concert at Nokia Theatre that starred the rappers Method Man, Red Man and Ghost Face Killa.  While these artists’ performances were amazing, the artists before them did not please the crowd, and seemed to be a waste of time.$0  The concert started at 8:00 p.m.; some people were waiting outside since the morning so that they could get a front seat.  But when everyone finally walked in to see the artists listed on our tickets, we watched unknown artists for two hours until Ghostface Killa finally came onto the stage.  But before that, all the loyal fans were furious that they had to watch average rappers on stage, some even throwing bottles of water at the performers. $0$0  It seems like rappers have had more of a tendency to wait a long time before they actually come on stage, and it becomes more irritating each time.  Lucky for the aggrivated fans though, the main artists put on a great show once they got on the stage.  Ghost Face Killa performed a bunch of his classic hits that rap fans have loved for ages, and stopped between songs to talk about the deterioration of “real” hip hop.  $0$0 Being one of the more original hip hop artists, Ghost Face felt the authority to speak about why rap music has changed in a negative manner.  Method and Red also fit into the category of original rap artists, and their performances won over the crowd most respectively.  $0$0 They started out peforming songs from their new album, “The Blackout 2.”  The crowd became most excited when they peformed songs from their old albums in the 90s, and between songs teased the crowd about possibly coming out with a sequal to their movie “How High.”  Although the crowd was shocked with anger for the first two hours of the concert, they were satisfied when they heard the artists that they were expecting to see.$0
