Pop Life

Neo Soul Man Trey Songz had the crowd eating out of his hands by the end of his nearly hour-long set.

Chances are you are not a pop star. So you have no idea what it’s like to be in a different city every night or be asked to summons the necessary energy to perform at your peak.  The expectations must be unfathomable.

An artist can either raise the bar or lose their status.

Last night we covered the Block Party Concert at the Dome last night and saw R&B singer Trey Songz set the standard.  He performed for nearly and hour and had the crowd at the point of eruption.

West Coast Hip Hop Collective Drop City Yacht Club (formerly The Freshmen) was a good appetizer.

By the time headliner Ke$ha hit the stage (after a lengthy delay) things weren’t just the same.
