EXCLUSIVE: BACKSTAGE W/ KANYE WEST

Friday, May 9, 2008

ANGEL CHILLING W/ KANYE

I had the honor of meeting Kanye West on the Charlotte stop of his ‘Glow In The Dark’ tour last night. And let’s just say the concert was basically THE SHIT. Lupe Fiasco killed it! His live stage presence was no joke. He performed with some dope artists too, Nikki Jean being one of them so look out for an Artist Spotlight on her sometime soon. N.E.R.D. killed it (sorry if I’m using that word too much) but that is the only way to describe it. Pharrell got too much swagger and I wish they let us do video because he busted his ass, but he played it off good. lol. Little Miss Rihanna was aiight. Honestly, I wasn’t really feeling her performance. However, she did get the crowd moving when she spit some old reggae hits and of course “Umbrella”. Homegirl is really pretty in person though, like crazily. Oh and I talked to Chris Brown backstage, he was mad cool.

As for the hardest working man in show business? His performance was no joke. Imagine chilling on stage for 90 minutes, working through emotional and physical pain, only to make his performance the best I’ve ever seen live? I can’t even put into words how fantastic his show was. Honestly, the only way to understand what I would describe would be to actually go out and see it. True art, live on stage with no fillers. You know how some people use those stage props as a crutch to compensate for their lack of talent? Kanye used his stage as a stepping stone to catapult him to another level or should I say planet.

MY BROTHER GARRY & KANYE MY FRIEND NIONA & KANYE WEST SINGER NIKKI JEAN

Angel & Don C.

Oh and big shout out to Don C. for hooking us up. Security was no joke.

Speaking of security, another shout out to Emil for showing mad CL love backstage. lol!

To my understanding a journalist gave Kanye’s performance a B+ (not sure waht city). Kanye told him don’t ever come back to another one of his shows. West is too much :). I would love to see him but I was out of the loop for this concert dates. Hopefully next time around.

Ms Ke

Friday, May 9, 2008 /

ppl didn’t belive me when i said that kanye would kill the stage for 1.5 hours by him self! no dancers, no background, no dj. nothin.. just kanye! kanye gives the best live show, next to the roots. i loved the ENTIRE show. i swear lupe should’ve been kanye’s opener, not riri. but i digress! this was the 2nd show that ive seen, and not only well worth the money, but well worth the wait! i cant wait for the next cd (im feelin somethin hot with lupe) and the next tour. the show was fantastic (riri couldve tried a tad harder, but it was aiight). lupe, n.e.r.d. and kanye gave fantastic shows. if you don’t already have tickets, you’re missing out!

32.

Nickey

Friday, May 9, 2008 /

Thanks for reviewing the show! I tried so hard to get tickets to the L.A., but it sold out in minutes! You summed up what I thought it would be. I’m jealous!

Angel, I gotta say, you’re doing big things. Good for you. And I’m glad you’re putting some of your newfound celebrity to good use by not just supporting artists but trying to give back on a socially conscious level with the voting information and black history spotlight. That’s what’s up.

35.

Friday, May 9, 2008 /

Kanye is looking hot. Awesome concert get-up Angel. I’m happy Kanye is doing his thing. I been hearing mad good things about the tour so far. I can’t wait until they perform at Madison Square Garden, it’s going down.

That show was the SHIT when I saw it back in Sacramento, Ca! I had to travel to Sacramento because the damn San Jose, Ca show sold out before it even went on sell to the public. It was worth it. We really enjoyed ALL the performances! My dude was talking about going to see him again when he comes back to San Jose in June. That’s how good it was.

What’d you have to do to get backstage? I know you’ve interviewed Kanye before, so did y’all just keep in contact over time and he invited you back stage after the show?

Friday, May 9, 2008 /

I had no idea the Glow in the Dark Tour was coming to Madison Square Garden until I just checked the website, it says I tickets aren’t available now check back later. I figured Rihanna would be the weak link, they should replace her with Santogold or M.I.A and add one more NYC area date

@ 42. He actually said something about those photos. He was like “Oh y’all got us at KFC” and he laughed. I shook his hand and he jumped on his skateboard and rolled out.

Anyway, the concert was dope though. I’m not going to rock a damn gown to a 4+ hour concert. It wasn’t that serious! When you try hard, that’s when you die hard.

I went to this concert in Tampa and he did in fact kill it. I loved the show. It was an outside show and it was perfect. I agree, Lupe-great!, NERD-different. I am not a true fan of rock music, but they sure had a damn good following at the Amphitheater. Also, Rihanna is really cute in person, not like I met her, but she is pretty from the big screen that I saw her on and looking at her on stage. She had a decent performance. She is not a true entertainer, but she sounded a lot better than I expected her to. Now to the King of Performers. Kanye killed it. He was amazing. No hype man, just him, his heart and soul on the stage. My only regret is that I wasn’t closer. He did an amazing show and performed for a full 1 1/2 hours. Great show, please catch it if its in a town near you.

Peace love and hair grease.

Coolness!! It seemed like a lot of fun. Too bad I missed the show when it hit south florida. But I’m sure Kanye kiiled it, because in all of his arrogant glory, the man can put on a good show.

It didn’t surprise me that Rih was just “aight” because you can judge that based on every other performance she’s done. I still love her though. I met Chris a couple of times also, so I know what you mean by how cool he is. He’s a real down to earth dude.

Go Angel….you better keep makin those celeb “rounds”….take advantage of it. lol

I must say I TOTALLY agree with you about the concert. Lupe killed it. NERD killed it. And Kanye well he killed it, resuscitated it and then murdered it again!!! His LA shows were sold out, so I flew to Vegas for his show at the Red Rock!! MAJOR DOPENESS!!! I still have dreams about that show…

I agree that you have had to be there to experience the level of art, love , and excellence, he picked the most dedicated people to tour with him. They complimented him well. I imagine this is what I would have experienced going to a MJ concert.

I had the pleasure of meeting Kanye in 2002 when his first single dropped. He said some crazy shit to me lol but he was very nice and MAD cool. Don and my girl had the same birthday’s.. we chatted for a minute on south beach and it was too cute. Kanye is the man, many blessings to him and his PHENOMENAL WORK!

i wish i woulda gone to see this concert i was never too interested in it at first but kanye done came and gone from city, so i missed out!!!

95.

deeza

Friday, May 9, 2008 /

wow kanye has a fake smile and angel has a face that could make babies cry, rihanna is jus a face. chris brown should sit down and lupe well is lupe! but i rate you thou u put your pic up lyk so what! and so u should, there is nothing wrong with being ugly too many people take pride in being pretty but to have a role model for the truly hideous is superb honestly!

i aint even lying

96.

* GIFT FROM A VIRGO *

Friday, May 9, 2008 /

Im happy to know it was a good show im going to see it on the 17th. Im not gonna lie i would never expect to much from Rihanna she is pretty but she isn’t a performer to me she is lacking in that department..

97.

real reppin hip hop

Friday, May 9, 2008 /

Angel? i love concreteloop, definitely report great news most of the time, but sometimes u guys talk about how people look, I seen u and Brian on a few occasions in the spotlight looking a hot ass mess, why would you talk about how someone else looks?? just my observation, people here are nice to guys or they r good ass kissers, but when u make best dressed post, and bash lil’ kim put up the worst photos sometimes, well not you angel, but that tianna, what ever happened to her? but anyway my point is never ever down someone for having a bad day or a few, because as we all see you have alot of bad days as well, oily looking, i can go on, just be careful what u post about celebs because whether you like them or not you do need to respect the fact that they have a following….

and oh I’m from Chicago…not a kanye fan….he makes good club music, but he acts like a lil girl rather than a man, and Lupe is talented, not a fan of his gay closet ass either…he like men, and these entertainers need to stop being fake, and really do things to help their community with some better transparency, instead of taking the youths money, and selling them a fake ass dream, i hate closet gays who date woman because their not man enough to except rejection from people who don’t like them anyway……ya’lll know i speak the truth…..I have sympathy for Kanyes mother passing very, very sad, because i love my moms, and i know how he feels….but he needs to be more of a man or just come out the closet already him, and Lupe…kicking and pushing lol…..i know a closet homo when i c one!!!!!!! Dates women for publicity thats all

She said she lay awake at night scratching her skin when she heard they were coming to Toronto. Them tickets sold out by 6pm the same day they were posted. Thanks to my honey bun I was able to get 2 tickets and my sister can sleep comfortably at nights now.

“only to make his performance the best I’ve ever seen live? I can’t even put into words how fantastic his show was. ”

Thats crazy you took the words right out of my mouth. I said the same exact thing when I saw his show in Tampa on Monday. The show was incredible. The set layout, the creativity, the performance, and the surprises were all UNBELIEVABLE. John Legend showed up to the Tampa show. I have never witnessed anyone perform with so much passion in my life. I would pay any amount of money to see his show live again! I suggest if it’s in your area to check it out.

Angel, i wish you could played him in a game of connect four, but im super jealous. I was mad with kanye for not allowing cameras, i really wanted atleast one good picture if i couldnt meet him. Im a very big fan, thats my dude, always speaks the truth, and his creativity is off the chain. and thats what i said about rhianna, she is beyond beautiful in person, like that doesnt make any sense.lol! so BiG SHOUTOUT CHRIS BROWN FOR SNAGGIN THAT!! but to J.DAKAR, you missed an awesome, and star studded show in atlanta, everybody and there mom was there. i was front row, performing with all of them. NERD made me a fan, they honestly almost stole the show. rihanna was mediocre, lucky she is beautiful, and very flirtatious with those eyes, she caught mine once or twice, but im sure she does that alot, had to maintain my swag though when her eyes caught me, was bouth to change the game up on chris…lol! but anyway, Kanye was the Motherfucking truth and thats so real, his energy level was beyond ridiculous the whole show, i couldnt sit down, his presense and crowd control was raw, he could’ve told me to punch the cat next to me, and bruh would’ve been gone…lol! Kanye please record atleast one of the shows to DVD please, you will sell out 30x over again, i promise. and lol at lupe for busting his ass in atlanta, but played it off so well during touch the sky. keep doing the damn thing angel! like Brian said, that is definetly black star power at its best….lol!

Newsflash if Angel gave a damn about anyone’s opinion on her appearance, guess what? She wouldn’t post her pics, so to keep saying negative comments have about as much affect on her as you talking to a light post; it’s pointless. It’s called being secure and doing you, while you are sitting behind a keyboard spewing out hate she is meeting celebs that only 5% of non-celebs may have the chance to ever meet. *not from afar* So keep spewing out hateful comments if it makes you feel better, although you’re wasting your time, while she continues to make money and grow as an individual. I’m glad Angel is secure enough and feels no need to comment on such rubbish, to do so would be beneath her.

Friday, May 9, 2008 /

@172 I think why people are getting at her because she dog celebs she don’t like. i.e. the way she called Raz-B a “Lame Ass” look it up i’m not lying. Then she had that HAM of the month thing. You can’t talk about how people dress and then you turn around and dress what you would call a hot a$$ mess. It just isn’t right. There’s celebs that are on here that the ones majority of the people on this blog hate and yet it seems that they always pop up in the mix i.e. Tameka,Kim K, (etc). The nasty things that been said about them don’t get deleted. I don’t see why she should be exempt from the critics like I said you got take the good with the bad. You shouldn’t dish it if you can’t take it. You’re right alot of people went over the line. Again I’m not Angel bashing but I’m just telling it the way I see it.

I like those glasses Angel ., congrats as well . Im really not a fan of Kanye but I enjoy some of his music . I take it you didn’t get to meet Rihanna ? Who is that chic Nikki Jeans ? Never heard of her .

I don’t get all the back and forth nonsense . If people think Angel is ugly so what ? Everyone does not hold the same standards of beauty . It’s a blog people are entitled to their opinions . If Angel cared she would be deleting comments left and right , so obviously she don’t . So why the hell are most of you upset ? Stop worshipping her because she runs this blog . It’s not that serious , to Angel anyway because she’s ignoring all of the “negative” comments . While some of you are about to have a heart attack ! Smh Wow

I went to the concert in Dallas Texas where I am located and it was something to remember… Kanye’s performance was off the chain!!! I was trippen at first because it took him forever to get on stage and perform but the wait was worth it because he showed out! I never knew he was so talented and for that to be my first concert of his to attend I was very excited to be there. Rhianna was straight and so was N.E.R.D, but Lupe Fiasco wrecked his perfomance too though with the chick he had performing with him she did her thing. It was worth requesting off that day!!!

188.

I luv MN

Friday, May 9, 2008 /

Wow all these reviews makes me really wanna purchase those tickets now. Me and some friends were thinking about going but one question though, how long is Rihanna’s performance?? I honestly wont go if her performance is longer that 15 minutes. She can never perform. she just stands there screeching into a microphone in her hands so I wont be listening to that for long at all. But I am a huge fan of Kanyes and Lupe so I’ll consider.

Kanye’s show was off the chain for real!!! His concert was classic (2nd row baby) !! I loved Kanye before, but now I have so much more respect for him. Rihanna was WACK!!! Pharrell was wack too! Lupe was pretty good, but Kanye blew all of them out of the water!

Damn, look at all the hateration. You know what i have to say to all that?

“You can hate all you want but you’d just be wasting your time!!” Hate on Angel yet she’s the one who’s got u suckered into coming to her blogsite. Ka-CHING! More money in the bank. So ya’ll need to fall back.

Forget em Angel. I think you’re beautiful girl and I admire you greatly for what u do. And i know you got high self-esteem so im not even worried

What I don’t get is why y’all think Angel should get a pass. Please give me a good reason why she should be spared. What goes around comes around. She put people on blast when she feels they need to be, why not her? What doesn’t kill you make you stronger. LOL!!! Y’all be killing me with the double standards. Now what some people said was down right low, but then again it’s their opinion which is the whole point in commenting. So why get all upset about them?

Angel the energy from your post shows how this show makes you feel like telling everyone how they HAVE to see this concert….you hit it dead on with how everyone killed it, and how Rihanna was aight. I mentioned during my review on my blog how she reminded me of Sandy from Grease because she smoked during her song “Rehab”….she would have been perfect during the Hells Angels days lol….check it out at lipsticklacebrassknuckles.wordpress.com

WOOOHOOOO… GWAN ANGEL…

MY MUM TOOK ME TO SEE KANYE WEST IN 2004 AT BRIXTON ACADEMY… HE DIDN’T EVEN HAVE ALL THAT MATERIAL BACK THEN… BUT HE MURDERED IT, BROUGHT IT BACK TO LIFE AND STAMPED IT TO DEATH AGAIN FOR ABOUT AN HOUR AND A HALF…

THE STAGE AT BRIXTON ACADEMY IS HUGE AND IT WAS BARE, JUST A TABLE THING WITH HIS DJ…

SO I CAN ONLY IMAGINE AFTER TWO MORE ALBUMS HOW MUCH BETTER IT CAN BE…

KEEP ON KEEPING ON MISS THING…

OH NO, I BEEN READING THE COMMENTS AND YOU ALL ARE TRULLY TERRIBLE.

HASN’T ANGEL AND CONCRETELOOP.COM, OF LATE, BEEN POSTING OBJECTIVE BLOGS IN COMPARISON TO LET’S SAY BOSSIP.COM WHO JUST CURSE OUT ANY AND EVERYONE?

SO WHY YOU NEED TO BRING UP HER APPEARANCE AND TEAR IT TO PEICES IS BEYOND ME.

AS WE SAY WHERE I COME FROM; YOU’RE EEEEEYDATS, AND IT’S NOT UR FAULT.

I SUPPORT YOU ANGEL.

As I sit here reading the ignorant ass comments pertaining to Angel’s look, I am saddened…Yea Angel is a little on the big side…SO FUCKIN what!!!! Yea, her decadent chocolate coated skin isn’t the skin tone of choice among you self hating negroes but SO FUCKIN WHAT!!!! Let’s talk about what she is…a black woman doing her damn thing and it is obvious that she could care less about your opinions because she has yet to respond to your silly ass comments.

If you can’t say something nice about someone then shut the hell up!!!!!! Who are you to critique her…let’s not forget whose blog you are reading…she aint reading yours!!!

Haters ~ Get back on the topic…this blog is about the Glow in the Dark Tour, not Angel.

By the way, her style isn’t wack…it’s different and you clones of one another wouldn’t understand originality if it bitch slapped your mainstream azz!

I would have been totally psyched to be near all those celebrities, let alone talk to them. I know I’m always preaching about how they are regular people… and they are, but I would have been intimidated as hell, so shout out to Angel for having the nerve to take mad pictures with Kanye West and talk to cocky ass Chris Brown. Not to spoil the comment or the post, I’m really glad that it was a successful event.

You ungrateful… Mmmhhh… I’m sure these types of comments are nothing new to Angel. Her look is not what America PERCEIVES as beautiful, and as previously said, SO WHAT! Angel and her crew provides a great service for us. I know I am on here daily. I can’t think of a better entertainment blog geared towards African American interest. If there was, I’m so hooked on the Concrete Loop brand and display, I don’t think I would give it a chance. Come on now, you guys, are sitting behind the computer wishing you could, and, Angel is out earnin for her hers. You gotta at least respect her gangsta.

WOW, I only wish I could have gone to this show!! He’s comin to Edmonton but I won’t be there that week and tickets sold out fast I heard.

Angel…I love the shirt, but the glasses are a NO NO! You usually look pretty cute, you should smile more.

Anyways, no pics of Rhi Rhi or Chris? Kanye looked mad cute in these pics too!

i went to the concert in the west coast, let me say the ticket cost me 100.00 and it was the probably the best thing i have ever bought myself. this concert was sooooooooooooooo dope and you felt sooo hyped up even after you went home. 2 days later i was still on cloud 9 and dancing and singing like i never left it.

KANYE ROCKED THE SH!T OUT OF THE ARENA !!!! Lupe, NERD killed it also and did the damn thing. RIRI was ok.

the whole place was on thier feet for kanye’s entire performance and throwing up the roc symbol.. it was bannanas !!!!

kanye’s set was unbelievable, he is truly the most creative muthafuka in the business.

@207 But I guess it’s okay to bad mouth the celebs that she put on her though? Look I’m not saying she ugly because I 1)I Don’t she is ugly, Ugly is word that get used too much 2) She my girl and I love her website. However,she should not get a pass just because she run the blog, while others people are this website get critic by there looks and their music (etc). Angel knew what she was doing when she put those pictures up. SHE DON’T CARE!!! That’s another thing I like about her is because she is confident.Anyways like I said it’s okay to bad mouth the celebs and commenters but not the CL Crew? What are they God?

Ok, BELIEVE i am one of the biggest Kanye West fan. After i heard about the B+ he was given, and the way he back lashed i just knew he was going to be OUTSTANDING. The fact of the matter is, i would have given him a B+ to. Me, my sister and my bestfriend travled from New Orleans, LA to ATL over the weekend to see Kanye West and i must say i would NOT go see him again. It was basically Kanye on a stage for 2 straight hours with no one else, nothing else but his space ship. He did not really “connect” with the audience bc the way his actual performance was, it was based like he was in a movie. It was good, but not great. Now dont get me wrong, i dont regret going to see him, i had an awsome time in ATL, but i’ll say i wouldnt go see him again if given the oppurtunity. Pharrell was AWSOME, he had me more hype then Kanye. Rhianna was terrible. The girl was stiff, she cant dance AT ALL. I will say she doesnt sound bad in person, i thought she would have, but she really doesnt. And she is like said above, VERY pretty in person.

But I thought it was just me, so i didnt say anything at 1st. Like i know im going to get alot of backlash for this comment already. But as we were walking out of the Arena, alot of other ppl were not satisfied either. After about 45 mins, you kind of get tired of watching him run around on stage dancing and punching and talking to the “SpaceShip” u wanna be like talk to US Kanye! Needless to say we discussed it in the car, and my sister said she would have given him a +C. So it wasnt just me.

Like i said i am a HUGE Kanye fan, i think hes one of the greatest artist alive and he will truley be a legend, but the concert is not all that i expected. Sorry guys. Kill me..lol

My husband and i had the pleasure of seeing this concert in Atlanta, on 05/09/08 and by far this was one if not the HOTTEST concerts i’ve ever been to!!! I must agree w/angel in re: to all of the performers, KANYE rocked!!!!! i sooo enjoyed every bit of it. plus he had mad support in the audience Quincy Jones, Mary J, and so forth was even in the house! it was clear this tour was for fans and people who love good music! the atmosphere set the tone,all walks of life was there to get the experience of the GLOW in the Dark Tour and i loved it!!! money well spent!!!

I was there as well and I agree with everything you said Angel, loved the show minus Rihanna. I really wanted her to do well so I could say I was just hating but I couldn’t . Wish he would have had someone else but other than that it was worth every penny

what trips me out is how mad people want to ask why people are worshipping Aaliyah in the other post (RIP babygirl), and niggas in this post act like Kanye West is God. Yall act like he is the second coming of Christ. I am a fan of his music..but don’t get it twisted: anybody can sample classic music: Diddy was doing way before he did. Cuz he’s from the Chi and can flow spoken-word like with rap music..Nas been doing that. I like Kanye…but he ain’t nothing to be trippin over. Geesh.

Anywho, I know it was dope and it looks like my girl had a lot of fun backstage with Kanye. I envy you lol. But ye, Kanye no doubt had to rip it!! NERD and Lupe too, i know killed it! UGHHHHH i still dont understand how that girl known as rihanna fits into the tour, but i imagined her performance was garbage and from what i hear it was. SOOOOOO on another note, love you kanye!!

Angel I know you probably don’t want to spoil it for other concert goers but you didn’t even explain the concept behind Kanye’s stage show. You didn’t say if his catalogue of albums got equal play (since it was such a long set) or whether it was predominantly from (x) album. What about the sequence of songs that really brought the concert to its zenith and then the ones that maybe simmered it down and had ppl in a more contemplative/reflective mindset?
What about talking to some of the tech ppl and stagehands to find out how that amazing (I’m guessin it was) stage/set was created.
You used a lot of hype words to get ppl juiced but you mainly described how the concert made you feel, which is fine , but who wouldn’t feel amped seeing their fave artist. As a regular fan and not a diehard fan of Kanye your review still leaves me on the fence and unsure of what to tangibly expect besides the emotional “dopeness”.
