    Meh. At least he was energetic. Sounds like the shit between his setlist was the hypest part. I'm too much of a nitpicker about artists and songs they're willing to perform live. He literally goes to the same 20 fuckin' songs that are the most popular and span across the duration of his lengthily-tenured and illustrious career. You have over 5,000 songs in your catalog, fam. A whole fucking music library for Your Average Joe is what makes up your archival "AND" contemporary percentage/portions of your creative oeuvre. I'm so aggravated that he's still so linearly-predictable at this point in his career. Thank God Rock Musicians don't do that shit. You won't see Robert Plant performing Whole Lotta Love or Rock 'n' Roll or Ramble On, just to appease his casual Led Zeppelin fans.

    His live shows, from what I've heard, and can tell from viewing Youtube Video Uploads of Them, he's fearlessly unpredictable. Veterans of Rap/Hip-Hop could use some borrowing of his live performance execution logistics and methodology. Hell, even Wiz will go so far back in his catalog's archives and ("Digitally Dig In His Own Contemporary "AND" Archival Crates, so to speak.") pull up a damn obscure gem from 11 years ago called "Who I Am" and he still performs that shit live. I love that shit. I'd rather attend and Wiz Khalifa show than a Lil Wayne show, any day. Wayne is probably my favorite studio hip-hop act/artist/persona though. I don't think that'll change any time soon. But live, he resorts to the same shit. He's The John Cena of Live Rap Performance, and even that's kind of an insult to John Cena. More like Hulk Hogan. *Shudders*

      thanks bruh it was a very memorable experience and in order to appreciate wayne as the enigma he is i think a live show completes a piece of the puzzle

      i've been to a few rap/rnb shows recently and Wayne was by far the most entertaining to see live he had infinite energy and crowd engagement it was really enjoyable although i agree that he only performs the popular tracks and that sucks i 100% understand why he does it the people at this show were loving it i had people around me reciting every bar it was really enjoyable and it was a piece to the puzzle added to my appreciation for his art

      i think Every Girl and Pop Dat could be interchanged with a bunch of better songs but they were still fun as fck to turn up to i donno i feel if he just pandered to fans he would lose that strong hold grip he has over hip-hop and its listeners

      you should definitely attend a show in your lifetime

      he performed "IM ME" which was a great song to see live and he spoke about a "mirror" and that was the "subject" of his time with us and he referred to it a few times i really thought that was nice and left a resonating message with the fans to take home from the show

      songs i think he should have performed were
      How To Love
      and Mirror

      both those songs were fcking huge in Australia and people i spoke to after the show were saying that they wished he played those

        Due to technical difficulties he arrived 35 min late n did his set for 25 min only here in Sydney but enjoyed it nonetheless

        someone threw a bottle at him and kinda threatened to leave
        So Tunechi really travelled all the way to Australia for a 25 minute performance?

                Lil Wayne for sure bro was by far the best concert experience for me his energy and crowd interaction was lit

                i enjoyed Drake but as a performer his not the greatest tbh! He had a really amazing stage design and spectacle that made his show more of an experience he also had a lot of crowd interaction but drake alone when performing wasn't mind blowing he didn't perform full songs and some songs he performed very lazily like for example 'legend' the intro he played normal then he started singing it and it killed the vibe

                If i had to rank all my concert experiences
                1. Lil Wayne
                2. The Weeknd
                3. SZA
                4. Drake
                5. Yung Lean
                6. Post Malone
                7. Tyga
                8. Nav
                9. Wale
                10. French Montana (horrible)

                Artists i want to see
                Kanye West, Immortal Technique, Famous Dex, Kendrick Lamar, XXXTENTACTION, Future

                      It was great back at that time
                      he was here with Eminem and they performed No love together which was dope
                      as I am pretty sure no one in America or anywhere else has witnessed em n Wayne performing on stage other than SNL
                      Eminem was pretty hyped about he had a tour with Wayne and emphasized how people in America doesn’t get to see them together.
                      his performance was electric he was doing the same songs he is doing except rich as fuck, no problems and love me.

                      stage was bigger 60k people mostly came to see Eminem as he was the headliner but people knew Weezy songs and 6 foot 7 foot was crazy
                      before he performed that he sort of left saying good night and then it was quite for a bit and then they were like do u want one more Weezy said say one more song nigga
                      everyone was like one more song nigga and he performed 6 foot 7 foot
                      i have a pretty good footage of that day
                      was able to sneak in DSLR but as I was in the mosh pit it’s not steady
                      I call my dick life cause bitches makes it hard

                        Definitely once in a lifetime to see Eminem & Wayne share a stage sad that i missed it wasn't it in an arena? As well thats pretty significant
