I was there.
Enjoyed Meth and Red but found them flying around on harnesses to be a bit embarrassing. Whole arena was like a big hotbox everyone passing weed around. Will never forget Streetlife performance during their set he absolutely killed it.
Always found DMX voice and music to be a bit abrasive but his energy was next level and he really got the crowd going. Saw a lot of people who were moved close to tears by his performance.
Had always been a fan of Jay but I expected him to come out and give an aloof performance just strutting around which would be a stark contrast to DMX. In fact it was the complete opposite. Wasn’t quite the nuclear bomb of energy but he certainly held his own and everyone I know who went which was basically everyone I know came away with a newfound respect for him. Memphis Bleek also sounded great live.
All in all a legendary night still have the ticket stub. Was by far the biggest venue I’d ever seen hardcore hip hop show in. Set the bar for a big arena hip hop tour.

No, we were like 13 me and my brother’s moms were like “fukk no!”. We had to live vicariously through the “Backstage” movie tickets and VHS we got instead lol. Would have loved to have gone to that and the “Up in Smoke” tour.

I went…was a dope tour. DMX was the highlight, tho Jigga did his thing. Not much to say about it that isn’t obvious - seeing DMX in his prime in his hottest year lived up to what you’d expect.

Meth and Red were very much who they were in videos/on TV
