So last night I went to the Wale show at Le Poisson Rouge w/ the homies.
To describe it in a word. Tough. (I say dope way too much)
Here's a little recap for yall.
Doors opened at 930, but we got there about 10 to 9, which was a VERY good look cause the line got deep after we got there. We were 2nd in line.
Got in there, and made our way right to the front by the stage.
There were a couple warm up acts, most of which I wasnt feelin, except for this dude J. Cole. Supposedly he jus signed w/ Roc Nation. Dude had some tough bars, but he had different kinda slow down tracks too, not just the regular ole' "Im hungry so I'll eat ya face" type raps. Dudes from North Carolina. Keep an eye out for him.
Colin Monroe performed too. I dont really follow him but it was straight. Joell Ortiz did a guest spot and came on stage for a track w/ him.
Then, damn near 2 hours after the show was supposed to start, Wale finally came out, bottle of Patron in hand lol. Dapped me up when he came out on stage too. Pretty dope I thought (nh). He had on the unreleased Silver 1/2 Cent's. Them joints were too official. Seein em in person made up my mind, Im definitely coppin when they drop.
Dude performed for like an hour...did Chillin (his new single), Waledance,and a bunch of other tracks. Young Chris (in Dmp 11's) and Kid Cudi (in true blue III's) came out durin the performance. Cudi did a quick Day and Night. Wale finished the set with Nike Boots (you know he had to do it).
(Here's a quick vid on the behind the scenes vid shoot for his Chillin single)

Anyway, he signed some shit for the people closest to the stage, before he went off. People started scramblin for shit for him to sign like once he was like yo Imma sign some autographs n shit for yall before I get off stage, lol.
He signed my Attention Deficit poster they had been givin out at the venue. He signed a dudes DC fitted which I thought was dope. My homie B got him to sign a dollar bill.

20 Second time out - Real talk, I was a couple seconds away from elbowin those dumb ass girls behind me all night. Takin dumb ass pictures, yellin like they aint have no damn sense, movin around like they was the only people in the joint. Just had to vent.

Overall, it was definitely worth the price of admission. Wale put on dope ass show. I have and will continue to support dude. Look for that Back to the Feature mixtape very soon.
Here's two vids from last night, both from my shitty ass video phone camera...
(Took the vids sideways on my phone and I dont know how to rotate em)
First one is the first track he performed.
Second is him on stage w/ Chris and Cudi.
Stay Up.
