Drake Concert Review

On the 25th of February, 2015, one of the most respected artists in the industry came to Sydney. Mind due, Drake released a 16-track mixtape a week before arriving in Sydney and was shocked by the response of the crowd when they started singing back the track to him. His concert was all about the 6 years his been in the game and taking it back from the beginning on the journey he went on. Midway through the concert he cames back on stage wearing the countries Rugby Union jersey of the Wallabies and the crowd went wild with support for Drake. 

He then levitated over the stage when he started singing his fan favourite "Hold On, We're Going Home" ensuring the crowd that "He isn't going home" that this is the best city, doubtful that he didn't say that at every city he toured in. Besides that he got the crowd involved and was very interactive and kept them entertained. The atmosphere being there was something I haven't experienced the whole Allphones Arena reciting the same lyrics as you to a song that has a different meaning to everyone is really something magical. 

Here is a little clip of "Know Yourself" only being released a week before the concert and the audiences reaction and Drake's reaction.

Top 10 of 2014!

Tracks of 2014


The year 2014 released many great songs some which broke records, good or bad, discovered many new artists in the R&B industry and albums were released and more individual talents discovered on YouTube. This is my Top 10 tracks of 2014; in no particular order: 

Tinashe - 2 On 

PARTYNEXTDOOR - Recognise ft. Drake

Chris Brown - Drunk Texting ft. Jhene Aiko

Jeremih - Don't Tell 'Em ft YG

Trey Songz - Na Na

Drake - 0 to 100

T.I. - No Mediocre ft. Iggy Azalea

August Alsina - Testify

August Alsina - Kissin' on My Tattoos

Fetty Wap - Trap Queen

This was a hard list to put together and it was a struggle to narrow it down to a top 10 but that is what was fire for me in 2014. I can't wait to see 2015 conclude and evaluate again and make another top 10 track list.
