What You Don’t Got is My Natural Glow
So I finally caught Glow In The Dark last night in Philly. Actually, it was in Camden, NJ, but it was considered the Philly show, kind of like how New York’s biggest annual concert also takes place in the Garden State. Apologies for the shitty audio and video, but honestly, it could be crystal clear and still wouldn’t convey the sheer awesomeness that was this show. Diddy was not lying to you. I’ve been to my share of arena concerts, but I’ve never seen crowd participation like I witnessed last night. I was like 6 or 7 rows from the stage and to look back and see 30,000 people all losing their noodle to "Can’t Tell Me Nothin’" was something you just can’t describe with mere words. If GITD hasn’t passed through your city yet, do yourself a favor, and beg, borrow or steal your way in.

i caught the show in H-town… I drove from San Antonio… best performance ever…. Kanye is on some space ass shit.. people are just going to have to get in line… this guy goes up and beyond the realm of art, music, lyrics.. its weird but if you go back to his discography… he has been talking about this concept since he was just laying the beats…good for kanye to realize a dream and do it… his honesty is what people want…. not some six shots, weed carrier, keeping it real hood rapper… my faith in hip hop is alive and kicking…

*daps Eskay*
It was f’n awesome, wasn’t it? Altho’ I gotta admit that I’m a little jealous of you having better seats than I did. That video you did with The Real launched you onto the D List of hip-hop personae, and thaaaat’s the difference.

like zamora, i caught the houston show.
words can’t describe it man.
people were telling me that it was the best experience they have ever had … in life, not just music, but in life.
i felt like a kid again, like, seriously.
it was AWESOME!
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
May 18th, 2008 at 7:48 pm
lmao @ the x facta…. camden is really disgusting. But I was there at the show too.. I’m from jersey and I think Rhianna didn’t know where she was at she was shouting out philly the entire time.
I missed lupe too… the only reason why I went but it’s all good kanye fucking killed it.
May 18th, 2008 at 7:56 pm
Hes comin in two weeks and even though my seats are average at best i cant remember being so hyped to catch a concert
May 18th, 2008 at 7:58 pm
i was gonna go, but then i found out the tix were 200 so i reconsidered…and now im thinking i shoulda just shelled out the dough to witness it

I was at the show too in row 6 but for Lupe and the Nerds my daughter and I were in the 1st row. Suprisingly, Lupe’s performance was the weakest. The Nerds shear energy just destroyed it. Pharrell took a pic with my daughter (great guy), RiRi was better than expected but Kanye…..FUCKING WOW! I had unbelievably high expectations but he smashed all of them. Like dude said the crowd participation was unreal. Good Life, Flashing Lights, Can’t Mell Me Nothin, Jesus Walks, DAMN!
The concert ranks in the top 5 experiences in my life so either the concert was that great or I have a pretty weak life (probably a little of both!) Don’t miss it at any cost!
May 18th, 2008 at 9:04 pm
haha Eskay you must have been right near me! I was eighth row seats 13-14 where were you?

i wen to the miami show, if i was an emotional female i probably would have cried.
the show really was incredible, white people, old mommas, little kids, cool kids, gay kids, black kids, were all just standing up rapping every single word to every single song.
on point.like a hrpoon.
May 18th, 2008 at 9:21 pm
Space Ghost is realer than Kanye
SG never cried at awards shows
May 18th, 2008 at 9:23 pm
i know what you mean man. i was probably a few rows behind where you were. sick sick concert, and that venue in camden is pretty nice (way better than expected). while the concert was unreal, i was disappointed that lupe didn’t get a full set. i saw him a few months back at the nokie theater in times square where he was headlining, and that was the illest show i saw this year. until yesterday.

@ blaze: her family released a statement that she is severely bipolar and wasn’t on her meds. wish i had a link to the blog that broke that story. after i learned that, i get uncomfortable watching that video. shit’s sad. the Prophet Muhammad said that toward the end of time, more and more people would become mentally ill. ain’t that the truth…
May 18th, 2008 at 10:56 pm
damn. shit went from youtube to internet fame to 10 o clock news so hard the family had to release a statement
that is sad

On a more relevant note, I got to see Kayne in Bristow, VA at Nissan Pavilion. The concert was really great, but it didn’t fucking change my life. People are talking about it like it’s some great spiritual awakening. It was a Kayne concert. A good Kayne concert. A ridiculously themed concert where Kayne continually got to prove he has a massive ego, but yeah, it was a great concert.
Lupe’s set was way too short though. But he killed at when he came back out for “Touch the Sky”
May 18th, 2008 at 11:02 pm
Damn that shit is nuts. Thanks for clearing that up tho Latarian.

Yeah i was at at the spot that shit was BANGIN
May 18th, 2008 at 11:12 pm
Eskay, I was there with my wife back in the cheap seats aka the lawn. I have to say, Kanye has come a LONG way from 03 performing at Howard Homecoming as an early act nobody cared about. He may have the best show on the block. I still think Busta is the best performer due to raw energy, but Ye definitely has the best show.
May 18th, 2008 at 11:14 pm
I was at the camden show too. Row S and it was insane. Best concert I’ve witnessed yet.
May 18th, 2008 at 11:15 pm
caught the MSG show and then casio anniversary party! WOWSERS two completely diff and AWESOME shows…He is def raising the bar as a artist!
May 18th, 2008 at 11:27 pm
Yea kayne is hot right now but ya’ll gotta remember that lebron james is gahbage. I don’t want to hear it from you stans that wake up with james dick up your ass… a grown man don’t gotta say no homo.
You cav niggas got him 3 more years, thats 3 more L’s. Good Job.
Congrats to Ye on this show, I don’t how its going to be possible for me to see it. smh
May 18th, 2008 at 11:30 pm
thanks for the news link. that’s amazing that the elderly woman knows the girl’s family and feels bad for the girl and refuses to file charges. truth be told what the hell was the chance that this girl was sane in the first place. i feel bad for her mom to have to see her daughter become a celeb that way. smh

How many fucking times as Bill O’reilly thrown hip hop under the bus? Like its daily motherfucking thing. Then he has the “silvio’s” incident where he was flabergasted that niggas were using utensils to eat and weren’t yellin “yo nigga pass that iced right quick yo” I MEAN YO COME ON MAN FUCK HOW MUCH BLATANT SHIT THAT NEEDS TO BE SEEN TO SHOW THAT THIS MOFO IS A FUCKING 2 FACED RACIST MAN.

why’d everyone’s voice seem so high during this concert. was somethin up with the mic’s?
someone who attended please answer
May 19th, 2008 at 3:23 am
That Ye show was Donkey Kong bananas.
N.E.R.D. got about 10000 people of all stripes in TAMPA, of all places, jumping to “All the girls standing in the line for the bathroom,” Lu did his thing, Rihanna only circled the toilet bowl for a little while, and then Kon tore the entire place down. Most creative and most dynamic hip-hop show I’ll probably ever see.
Not sure if that’s sad. But it’s real talk.
May 19th, 2008 at 11:04 am
I’m a little more critical of the show….went to the VA show at Nissan a week or so back…..I think Kanye did an incredible job…he made it through his whole set without losing his projection…..a couple things I think slowed down a bit was the remixing of certain songs….couldn’t get into to the groove of the certain joints I liked….flashing lights…can’t tell me nothing….good life….crowd response was amazing….he rocked them joints…30K people from stands to lawn feeling the music was a sight to see….only other problem I had was I felt like he had a little too many Rockstar moments….enough already…you got plenty of those flicks througout the tour dogs…
May 19th, 2008 at 1:09 pm
show was sick i had stupid ass lawn seats with all the drunk ass high school kids throwing up all over. Right before kanye came on i snuck all the way up to the stage. Crazyiest show i have seen in a minute.
