Rams Head On Stage
I have seen Bilal in Chicago, DC and MD and I cannot wait to see him again! My daughter introduced him to me when she was in college and the talent, the range and eccentricity of his style, I just adore!
A very excitingly entertaining event fill with good 2hrs 45 minutes of various live performances and after party event all in the celebration of legendary George clintonwho was the main event the over performances was well worth the money I paid for tickets.
I thought the show was good; could’ve used some more Latin funk! Christian was amazing , so was Ray Chew and the backup singers (except for the screamer). Savion and George Clinton? Legendary!!!
Show was good but not what I expected when purchasing tickets, thought it was his show but he didn’t perform any of his songs. Advertisement was false .
The room appears to be very good but not in this particular night. Only the side array of speakers were mounted. No Center speakers. I don't know if that was the source of the problem but the fact is that the room suffered from reverbation that contributed to a muddy overall experience. Some technical work to be done.
Bilal was Wonderful. He added a little twist on Old School Jazz and Blues. He knew how to interact with The Elders and had respect for Original Jazz and Blues Artist and Music
I've been listening to Bilal's body of work for sometime now way before his current work with Robert Glasper (His Former College Roommate ) or his work on Kendrick Lamar's Pimp A Butterfly album I enjoyed the look and sound at Crystal Ballroom in Somerville it was my first time there and my first time seeing Bilal live. His band was great in sound and style they complimented Bilal's voice. He kept the crowd intrigued with each song he had written or had been apart of. He moved the audience with each song. Great show was experienced that evening for all.
Walking into The Birchmere is like stepping into a shrine of music history. The sold-out crowd buzzed with excitement, each person eagerly awaiting the magic to unfold. When Bilal graced the stage, the room erupted in applause, the anticipation reaching a fever pitch. The Birchmere wasn’t just a concert; it was an unforgettable experience. The artist’s soulful performance and genuine connection with the audience made it a night to remember. If you ever get the chance to see a show at this iconic venue, don’t hesitate—you won’t be disappointed.
Bilal as usual killed, but in this venue, I was right next to the stage! He was his usual entertaining and captivating self as a performer...I just watched a short portion of All Matter that I recorded on my phone and chills went up my spine. It was a wonderful concert for my wife and I, who are both huge fans.
Bilal is always a good show. True artist. You can tell when someone studies their craft.
