It came and blew everything else out of the water.... the VOICE..... my God
Seun Kuti opened of course, and honestly I was impressed. I'm always leery of legacy artists, like my father was so and so and now I'm an artist too... No. Seun is truly talented, Naptown was not ready for those moves. And the DANCERS... the YT couple in front of me were both fascinated and uncomfortable and I loved it.
I am a super critical person... It's my worst quality, but it's true... as a Lauryn aficionado I can honestly say she has't sounded this good since EARLY 2007... the vocal agility, her breath control was on point, the range was there, the runs were CRAZY GOOD, her voice sounded so sweet.
I've never seen an artist so naturally charismatic.
SHE PERFORMED CAN'T TAKE MY EYES OFF OF YOU!!!!!! AAAHAHHH! She said she just started performing it recently.... She performed her verses and the hooks of Vocab and Mona Lisa as a precursor to the Fugee segment, two more surprises.
Her vibrato was NOT choppy and I just KNEW it would be. I could have cried from the beauty of her voice, but I didn't. (I shocked a few people with my own voice, but I couldn't help singing along.)
Sade's Your Love is King and Sweetest Taboo were performed beautifully and the audience responded well to them. I spent just as much time watching the people around me because of course people don't follow Lauryn as closely as we do here, but they ate it up and fell in love all over again.
The arrangements sounded TRIUMPHANT!!! From 2007 up to now the general tone has been urgent, confrontational, almost a call to arms in the fight for freedom of expression... Tonight was simply triumphant.. whatever this struggle has been about for the last two decades, I have no doubt that she's won, and I now have more faith and certainty than ever before that new music is coming and that she is capable of reclaiming the hearts and ears of the masses and possesses the strength to receive it...
Notable quotes:
audience member " I love you!!!!"
MLH "I love you too! Do you know that? Let me tell you why you why I can say that... because it's the same love frequency. I create what I do out of love and if you love what I love it must be the same frequency right? It's the same love... It's the vibration. Love vibration."
--- MLH " I have six children *crowd goes wild* I know. Crazy, right? That's really why they called me crazy, y'all didn't know that was the real reason. I had six kids. (crowd laughs)
then she goes "Nah, it's actually because I'm a nonconformist. They want to take my mind out of the system." Then she laughs and starts the next song. I love this woman so much!!!
I watch all the concert footage I can get lke most of us do, but I can truly say she gives a hell of a show, and I feel blessed to have experienced the best show in a long time... It outstrips the Austin city Limits performance by far
if you get the chance... GO SEE HER!!!

I have long wondered why she wasn't performing anything from Blunted On Reality. I hope some footage surfaces from this show. Sounds good.
