Metro had put together a few after shows this year with Lollapalooza – A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie performed for a sold-out show in Metro with special guest Skizzy Mars as one of the shows following the festival Saturday night.
The opener of the night was Skizzy Mars, who performed a few old tracks to start off the set for the night and was able to set the tone for the crowd with an old classic “Do You There” with great lighting and vibrant colors to have fun with fans. Mars is an American rapper, songwriter and record producer from Harlem, New York. He described to the fans that his next song was written for a girl and introduced “Lucy” which had the fans excited for the next one to come. Mars had also performed other songs such as “Comb,”“Time” and “2006.” He had recently released a new song “Say Something” which was released the day before the performance.
As soon as A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie took the stage, right away he wanted everyone thinking about their ex by performing “Still Think About You”. The crowd went wild for each song, as he made sure everyone was able to have fun he played a tribute to Chicago native Juice WRLD by performing “Demons and Angels” with Juice WRLD’s feature. A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie’s DJ let fans know dreams are possible based on Boogie’s many achievements, being from the Bronx dreams can come true – leading into the next song “Jungle” the fans sang along to this one making the connection very close with the artist and fans. He performed more hits like “Hello”, “Secrets”,”Swervin”, and kept the crowd going by finishing off the night with “Drowning”. The show was a great display of seeing the growth of New York Hip Hop performances alongside a DJ working alongside him to give a full show for fans.
