Music is awesome especially when you get to let loose and just sing-a-long to the songs of your favorite artist's album at their concert. I have been to a couple of concerts in my life and I have discovered that just because it's a concert, it does not mean that it will be all fun and dandy. To really have fun and enjoy the music at a concert, you have to love the music your listening to and love the artist that's performing. Just this past week on September 24, 2010 on Friday night, Drake (my favorite rapper) had a concert at USF Sun dome, it was so much fun, I'm sure everyone had a blast. Unfortunately....... that's what I was told by my friends who did go see it because I didn't. As bad as it feels to miss the opportunity to see Drake perform in action, I was at least happy to hear that it was as great as I imagined because I know now that all of that money it takes to get a ticket, would have been worth it.
That brings me to my reason of why I wasn't able to make it; I didn't get my ticket in time because I was waiting for my cousin to purchase a ticket first. Although, I wanted to go more than ever, I didn't want to see it without her.
Moreover, I know being at Drake's concert would have been the best one I have ever been to because I actually know all of his songs, including the verses; unlike other concerts where I try to sing-a-long by making up my own words. The interesting fact about my love for Drake's music is that he is a rapper, and I never really liked rap much until Drake came along. I guess it was because most of the rappers I heard didn't have lyrics that I could relate to, understand, or agree with. But Drake changed the game for me with his talent of singing and the words in his songs were really catchy. Also, the phrases in his music are so amazing that I couldn't help but to learn every one of them. I find it really neat that everyone in my family loves Drake, which is great because when we play his album, everyone is singing-along and happy and not yelling for someone to turn the music off.
hey destinee, yea i heard that the drake concert was amazing from everyone on my floor and all of my friends that went. I am very sorry you didnt get the chance to go see your favortie rapper, because i can tell that you really love his music. Hopefully you will get that chance someday!
ReplyDeleteI wanted to go to the concert too! Well at first I didn’t even think about wasting money to go see him (college student=broke) but then at last minute I started listening to his songs and I wanted to go soooo bad! But the tickets were sold out…Well hopefully he has another concert soon so we can go.
ReplyDeleteI used to love Drake. Ever since he became huge I stopped liking him. A little biography from me is I listen to alot of underground music. And it really bothers me when someone goes mainstream. Alot of people like Drake and known him for Degrassi. I have to say that if you were a real drake fan you would know that he used to have a myspace. His parents are divorce. He lives in the suburbs of toronto. He is half black (Dad) and half white (mom) and he has been rapping since he was 15. But ever since "Best I ever have" I was just furious. But I'm happy for him. But change can be difficult.
ReplyDeleteLol..When I started reading the blog I was hating on you, but when u said u didnt make it I started laughing. Yea it suck, I wanted to go but I was broke and I wasnt gona pay al that money for a ticket but w.e homie, we missed it together.
