Just got back from the Houston WTT show. Great show, alot of production value and sound was awesome. One thing that came through during the show is how many HITS Jay and Kanye have I mean, HITS that people knew every word to. Taking a step back, it was just amazing how many songs they have made that the world loves. Mainstream, underground, pop fans, they have hit on many levels.
The only downside is that it just felt like a hit factory after awhile. I mean, hit after hit after hit. The exact same setlist from other cities, no guests appearances (Bun B was there, didn't perform), a few lyrical nods to Houston but it was almost like having a playlist of Jay/Kanye greatest hits playing super loud. While a good time, I did miss some real passion that I have seen in other shows. Notably Big K.R.I.T. recently. As the show went on, it seemed alot like Jay trying to pay off that LiveNation loan.
Anyway, here is a video of Otis that looks like it was filmed from Austin, I was in the lower lever, but the audio is on point -

Don't get me wrong, I had a great time and glad I went but at a point it felt like a "corporate rap show"
