Its kinda gay to be at a concert and listen to another male rap/sing
Why don't most black people attend concerts?

And people saying blacks don't have disposable income tf
How tf do y'all think R Kelly can still sell out big venues full of nothing but horny 35-50 year old black women?
Or old acts like Earth Wind & Fire,Frankie Beverley,The Isleys etc..can still be on the road doing sold out festivals? Black people will come out if they REALLY have a connection to your music, not cause you won a Grammy and have some slack ass shyt forcefed down their throats.
word. some of these dudes sound stoopid. Matter fact, I don't even think they're black.
I will say as far as rap goes, younger black folks don't seem pay en masse for concerts of actual rap performers, and instead pay for glorified "listening sessions" at smaller venues headlined by rappers who walk back and forth on stage all night gone off lean and who knows what else.
the schoolboy types would have to be in a city with a sizeable black population to see more diversity at his shows. .. OutKast has been one of the few artists so still keep a solid black fanbase across america despite going "left" with it.
Most concerts are ass. Half the time the artist look like they don't even want to be there
Gotta ask ya self do I really wanna pay 60+100$ for a weak ass show I can catch on YouTube
concerts especially in the summer where most of them are held outside are much cheaper then your traditional stadium concerts, I went to a Wayne concert a few years ago and only paid 40 dollars for a ticket, but location also plays a huge factor, nikkas spend that type of money on weed and food daily so disposable income isn't a issue, I also paid 25 for a currensy ticket and I was suprised to see how many black people attended that show.
for example to gotti or boosie or dolph is performing at some hole in the wall club that charges 40-50 for admission that night your spending more money to get in and to buy drinks and other stuff and that's not even counting if you buy a vip booth, that's more expensive then a concert, I know nikkas who do this on a weekly basis.

performance is whats becoming the ultimate factor in current hip hop...its pretty much the only way these nikkas are getting serious money
a lot more people are taking it serious now
festivals are an acquired taste...I wouldn't even recommend that shyt as a first time concert goer...you really aint gonna see shyt, its more a vibe and atmosphere thing
but actual tour and concert dates (especially bigger artists in current times with huge budget visuals) are lit
but white people can go because they can afford it...nikkas aint paying 195$ to sit in upper level seating to watch drake

outkast was always "left".
they came in with a heavy arrested development-esque r&b rap fanbase from day one. laface/arista.

this here. with the cost of most concerts, most black people simply don't have the means to go to them.
responses when the real reason is majority of nikkas like hood shyt contrary to the coli. Which means club venues.

How U Luv That???
Mozzy is bigger in Cali with young blacks than Q is.
where do y'all keep coming up with this from? it's people spending 200 dollars weekly on Jordan's but they can't afford concert tickets
