Before the real party popped off, Tim Westwood got the crowd hype yelling out "if you ain't got ass shake your titties" while Big Sean x Nicki Minaj was playing - lmao. (And by the way, he does keep promises, he followed back) It didn't stop there, the ticket indicated "special guests" and special guests there were: it was a full blown Dreamville affair with Bas and Omen aswell as J Cole's dj (who I'd caught in Nike town on Saturday working the decks) turnt up at The HMV Apollo.
The intimate venue was packed out and a full house of Coleworld stans chanting lyrics that had Cole "feeling like Jay-Z". The energy was explosive and with a full live band (including a gorgeous guitarist). Audience interaction was probably my favourite part of the show - J.Cole was taking requests for the nights performance and performing "Is She Gon Pop" for the first time ever. The show, complete with an entire narrative and the stage was beautifully decorated with Born Sinner visuals. Cole finished off the show promising to be back next time at the O2 arena, no doubt I'll be there.
