Finally ran this front to back.

Good album, but, the shots kinda ruins it and it the Ak' shot makes it sound repetitive.

Like, good album forreal.

But, it's not better than SSS or Alfredo 1.

Show wasnt bad. It was at the brooklyn paramount...i never been there before so i was surprised by the aesthetics of the place. It was nice as fukk it must have been a theater back in the day.

On to the music. There was 3 opening acts. First one was this european group called Sven Wunder. i dont really know too much about them but their music was cool. It was like some type of synth jazz. I ate a little bit of mushrooms before the show so they were a good vibe for that.

Next performer was MAVI. He's a decent performer the young cacs in the crowd were really fukking with him. His music is very personal and his raps got a lot of words but he delivered them well. I dont really know too much of his music but i know he came out to one of those songs he got with alchemist from "this thing of ours".

Next was this dude Jalen Ngonda. Dude is some type of soul singer with a live band. His performance was good really sounded like some 70's music that my parents listened to when i was growing up. He had an all white band, they played well. Music was good.

Now for bald head Fred and uncle Al. Freddies performance was cool. He performed tracks from alfredo 1 & 2 and was switching back and forth between projects. He did most of the songs from each tape. Def heard some of my favorite joints from him. He took a break in the middle of the set and let Al play some instrumentals. He spit the verse to that song "ferraris in the rain" and then fred came back out and finished up. Ended the set with "jean claude" (my personal favorite) and "1000 Mountains". Their set was close to 90 mins.

Overall it was a decent show. It was alot of Gen Z kids in the crowd i didnt know the youth fukked with fred like that. He packed the place out tho i was surprised by the amount of people in there. I guess erykah badu's ass was in there cus he shouted her out but i didnt see her. It was a ton of white kids for sure but thats what ive come to expect from rap shows in NYC (and especially downtown brooklyn).

My final rating 8/10.

Thanks for the review bro. I'm gonna roll up a little bit late since I know there are so many openers.

The show was dope the other night.

A lot of the OG's came through, so it was nice to see Gibbs getting support from them. He always gives a good show though, so I was hype to see him still knocking out performances the way he's expected to. What I really like, is how much love he gets from other MC's. It was dope to see how many of them wanted to speak with him backstage and show the respect.
