The London show was incredible. The Hip Hop 50 inspired graphics into RZA's opening monologue with the cinematic soundscape set it off perfectly. They came out and all killed their parts. The Wu catalogue is ridiculous.

Nas took the show to another level. The vocals and song transitions. He even threw Silent Murder and Poison in there. The King's Disease songs were great too. That 40-16 Building went off.

I went to the afterparty too. Nas off Henny coming out to Hate Me Now picking up where he left off. He did Oochie Wally & You Owe Me for the ladies too. Place was lit. Then Ghostface came out and performed One, probably my favourite Ghost song. I was like :ohhh:

The love between Wu and Nas was so palpable throughout the night. And the crowds were on fire all night. Hip Hop won royally. No tricks, pure magic.
I went to both too. Both FIRE.

the after party really caught me off guard. That shyt was incredible. It's was billed as just nas appearing, I wasn't even sure he was going to perform anything. Wu were not billed to turn up and then U God stepped on stage mad early to say his brothers coming soon had the place nuts.

The chemistry and love nas and wu have is beautiful. It was almost like imagining them all back stage kicking it over bottles of hen, but right in front of us all.

For me personally, the ghost and nas love at the after party might be my favourite part of the night. I was kinda faded, but I remember nas shouting out all of wu individually but he didn't mention ghost......

He left him until last and I am sure he said ghost is the greatest mc alive. And then ghost told nas he the undeniable goat. What a moment. I'm a guy who has ghost top 5.

Rae showed nas mad love. Nas was clearly faded and voice probably strained from the long night and rae was like nah u gotta give us one more lol.

Also I found it some what ironic that oochie wally and owe me had the place going nuts, the woman around me lost they dam mind.

Legendary night.

Oochie Wally and You Owe Me went crazy when they dropped and anyone who says different wasn’t around or stayed in the house imo.

females went crazy for Oochie Wally that joint was everywhere on the East Coast at least it's plat for a reason. Just goes to show the hivemind like influence Jay had at the time :pachaha:. Nas did mail it in the verse tho it's not the type of joint to get super lyrical :manny:

No doubt. Over here Oochie Wally got mad play but You Owe Me gets played differently - all the time from then till.

I say its ironic because it was a hip hop 50th celebration and you know how people like to hate on them tracks.

Nas live show has become elite. Those overseas crowds :whew:
give a lot of credit to Damian those DR shows Rock the Bells festivals were :wow: . Plus he's expanded his catalog he even performed Rewind last night. Even if the crowd doesn't know the newer material he can pull em right back with a Represent or Halftime for example. Very few solo acts can do that

Yea I noticed after that DR tour, he stepped it way up. He puts on great shows and him and green lantern have great chemistry.
