I’m up in Chicago right now and I attended Estelle and Solange’s show at the House of Blues on Wednesday night and let’s just say it was definitely the place to be. Solange opened the show playing a short set including some of the crowd favorites, “T.O.N.Y.” and “I DECIDED.” I definitely loved how she mixed Devin The Dude and The Cardigans in with some of her performance tracks. You have to see the show to find out which ones. By the way, she sounded great live and worked the stage like nobody’s business.
Backstage was cool, Solange was preparing while American Idol played in the background. Little Julez was surfing around on the internet and laughing. Popular singer D.A. Wallach from Chester French and DJ Willie Shakes were also backstage waiting on the upcoming show. Everyone was cool and down to earth. Didn’t get to meet the lovely Estelle, but maybe next time. Her set was the truth though! She does not play when it comes to performances.
I also ran into a few Concrete Loop fans and had to show them some love on the site, so make sure to peep all the photos!
I think she looks really cute. Glad to see she’s doing better….Her son is a Cuite!
I want Solange’s shoes!!!!
love solange buh she always gotta be extra…sighs…
Love Estelle! I really want to see her live
Solange is hillarious- I saw pics of her supposedly fainting, she was lying face down on a yellow jumper looking like she was sleeping- it did honestly look fake. But I do love some of her music!
Juelz looks much better than he used to, he actually has pigmentation now
I can’t wait to see Solange at the Essence Music Festival. Hate you won’t be able to make it this year, Angel!
solange son is getting big i havent seen her in a picture with her son in forever
I would have loved to see Solo and Estelle! I know it was great! She looks pretty!
Hey Solo!!!!!!!!!!!!!
little homie is growing up fast and solange has been looking really hott nowadays
♥ the Pierre Hardy shoes
I almost love all the shoes Solange wear. I saw her live once before, and really enjoyed her. Her son is so cute.
i can imagine how good this show was im lucky enough to have seen them both live and they definietly don’t play love them both!
Someone tell me why this girl insists on looking like a fool? She need to go somewhere and sit the hell down! Puh-leez.
nice photos Angel! Love the boots and ur hair.
I love Estelle’s love performance, Haven’t seen Solange yet, but I’ve been hearing good things.
Julez is a cutie.
aaaaw Julez is a cutie, looks like a little man! I heard the show was hot, unfortuantely I have had to stay grounded in NY… whaaaa…
D.A. Wallach from Chester French is HAWT. i luv chester french nonetheless.
Juelz is soo CAAAAUTTE, he looks like a good kid and seems to be very content..Solange is doin’ a great job wit him.
Solange is muh gurl no matter wat..she always pulls somethin’ wit her oufits lol
gotta luv her tho.
It was nice of Angel to give CL readers sum limelight.
thas why i luv this site so much,
cuz the CL is sophisticated and updated on a regular.
anywho, Solange’s heels are fierce!
Sorry Solange but the makeup makes you look like a clown. Please stop!
Nice shoes though
I am solo’s biggest fan!!!!!! she looks great and her son is so presh!
I saw Solange perform in Bmore last week. The show was hoooooottttt!!! She def killed it. Baltimore is a tough crowd and she got nothing but love. Def put the haters to rest.
I wonder if Solo is coming to Dallas??
I like Solo at first I didn’t but she has a cooky personality.
Her son is getting big and is a cutie indeed.
~Twitter Me~ MWNY
Aww Solange son is so cute! I am just not a fan of Solange and I am not feeling the eyes. Her shoes are on point though!
OMG I was there Solange was so dope I loved how she mixed in the Madonna music too. And she that Fuck the Industry song I loved her set. Estelle was great too but I was there for Solange… I didnt know u was there Angel lol
aww look at julez…he growing up so fast
Angel welcome to the Chi-town!!!!!!!!!!!!! Robbins, Oak Park, Chicago REPRESENT!!!! I did not know Solange and Estelle were gonna be here or I would have went. Estelle and possibly meeting Angel would be my motivation. Looks like good times.
AWWW Solo and her little baby…they look too cute..
CHESTER FRENCH!!! I’m sure that was a good show..
Like the yellow make up, purple and torquoise sp? would be cute too.
Yes she is talented and she want to look unique and creative, but the face paint makes her look crazy.
Awwww look at little Daniel. Luv Solo’s outfit. Those Knowles girls dont play when it comes to live performances. Both can put it down.
Mayne, I love me some Solange…shes dope.
and her son is so cute…awww.
ok, who’s got info on those SHOES
info on the shoes: http://concreteloop.com/2008/06/who-rockd-it-better-estelle-vs-solange
the girl must stop with that eyemakeup…..its killin me………juelz just looks bad, LMAO…..I swear he looks like the munchkins off the wizard of oz…..
but its good to see Solonge still holding down the performance scene dispite lackluster sales….most ppl give up and drop off the face of the scene so its nice to see she’s not lettin it slow her down….
also its good to see Angel cheezin for once, LOL Angel gonna be the black perez hilton (meaning very popular w/out being trashy)….good look!
Okay…I thought Solange’s son’s name was Daniel…or is that his dad’s name?
i really do like Solonage so much more now, she does seem so down to earth! Julez is so cute, and you can tell she is a really good mother.. i like her style love the shoes!!! she always looks cute to me, because she is so different and she dosen’t mind taking risks.
Estelle and Solange at the House of Blues Dallas
March 9th… I can’t wait!
his name is Daniel, but his nickname is Julez. Solo looks cute and so does Estelle.
Nice photos Angel. You are getting around huh? Weren’t u just in NYC? Damn!
despite…I spelled it wrong
Angel I’ma need you to smile baby…
Was Estelle not friendly, to where you only have one pic of her???
Julez is a lil’ cutie, and Solange looks great, loves her
I twittered that I thought I saw you there last night, Angel!
Guess I was right. This show was AWFDACHAIN! I was front & center and loved every minute of it.
@Kennedi: He’s a JR, but I think Julez is Solange’s nickname for him.
I loved Solange’s CD. I can’t wait to see her live. I hope she comes near Austin soon.
@ 37. There is a photo of me smiling. View the full gallery. LOL.
I didn’t get a chance to meet Estelle. She was on the other side of the stage.
Her performance was hot, but HOB didn’t have a section for photographers that night so it was hard to get pics.
Solange is that bitch!!! I love her music, style, personality, and her son is such a cutie! I don’t know too much about Estelle, but I didn’t care for “American Boy” and the other song she had out.
Solange is so pretty but umm estelle you getting a little better
GIRL GOT THE BEST LEGS OUT THERE!!
Ummm did he see her put up her middle fingers during her performance quite a roll model so over her, she is D-list, if Beyonce wasn’t her sister you know she would be as popular as Ashanti.
Okay. Not being funny, but Angel looks like a heavyset Grace Jones. You literally scared the shyt outta me! You messed up the pics w/ you and Solange. The drawn on eyebrows kill me. Stay out the pics please! Jeez! It’s not even funny anymore.
Juelz looks like Beyonce…..
Something always seems off about Solange, I think she should do something different with her hair.
I don’t understand why all of these black female entertainers insist on wearing the weave, even got Alicia Keys doing it.
no 22 his first name is daniel and is middle name is julez.She calls him by his middle name because his father’s first name is daniel
Ummm did he see her put up her middle fingers during her performance quite a roll model so over her, she is D-list, if Beyonce wasn’t her sister you know she would be as popular as Ashanti.
———————————————————————————————————————-
yeah i saw that too, what was that for, i just hope your son was not watching, just did not see the point of it, if that’s part of your act/performance…then i am just not interested in seeing…go sit down somewhere and be a mom
I love her, she’s so unique and talented. “Sol Angel & The Hadley St. Dreams” was one of the best albums of 08. I’m surprised she didn’t win a grammy.
why is she letting her 5 year old surf the web?!??!
Is there anyone else out there who is tired of seeing Angel mess up the pictures besides me?
Awww, I like them both. Estelle is my girl, though.
Congrats on all the ~exclusives~ you’ve been getting lately. CL has been going strong for a while now.
#45…..why are you trying to get me fired? why are you trying to ruin me?
LMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
you’re dead wrong and you know it….kinda agree tho
Everytime I see her son I think of his fake blog and him hissing at the paparazzi like he’s the spawn of satan or something….He’s going to be too much when he gets older.
i’ve seen solange live … she’s AMAZING.
My only question is why does she have that little boy @ the House of Blues for a shoe that I am assuming is @ night? No babysitter?
I CAN’T STAND THIS LIGHT SKINNED TRASH!!!
that lil boy looks like he got mommys yellow makeup on too. he looks scary whoever said like willie wonkas dwarfs i agree. solange tries too had to be different.
wow her sons a cutie…but why is she putting him through the pain of having to listen to her sing..j/k/but i really love estelle.
