Vince Staples: SXSW 2016 | NPR MUSIC FRONT ROW
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 15 сен 2024
- On paper, Vince Staples headlining an NPR showcase doesn't make a lick of sense. He's a young, black rapper, with production that veers toward the dissonant and gritty, and aggressive, colorful lyrics that speak pointedly to the systemic issues that plague his hometown of Long Beach, Calif. But in action, Staples closing out a night that also featured soul, Chicano punk, indie rock and country made all the sense in the world.
The bulk of the material Staples performed came from last year's widely acclaimed Summertime '06 - an album that laid bare his experience growing up around gangbangers, drug dealers and addicts, fearful outsiders and corrupt cops. His silhouette the only thing visible, Staples launched into his set with the deceptively buoyant "Lift Me Up"; the audience immediately lifted with him, jumping at his command.
With charisma, comedy and a touch of cynicism peppered throughout, Staples played to his crowd without pandering - which, to be fair, has never been a part of his repertoire. (See: his Spotify showcase at SXSW.) The energy between Staples and audience was reciprocal, and only ticked up further as the night wore on. By the final two songs - the wildly charged "Senorita" and the jarring "Blue Suede" - there was full-out moshing, crowd surfing and stage crashing, much to the chagrin of security. Elbows were thrown and backs were shoved, but it was clear by the time Staples finished his performance, standing atop the rail directly in front of his adoring audience, that it was all a physical manifestation of unbridled, raw positivity. --KIANA FITZGERALD •

"aside from slavery, the south is a great place to be. speaking of oppression.." vince is the best. speaks the truth
Never realized how dope Vince sounded live. This dude is fuckin raw!
Best show ive been to by far. This crowd sucks cock tho. At the show i went to there were really intense mosh pits during senorita and suede. Shit was to raw.
that's good to hear because I got tix to his Aquatic Life tour and I was a lil scared that I wasted my money after watching this performance
festivals are a mixed bag, but Vince shows are always lit, and blue suede always has a mosh haha

Isaiah Townsend Big rule of the universe: if you mention someone's grammar, you probably fucked up your own grammar.
Who gives a fuck. As long as people are communicating.
w/e definitely not a big rule in the universe
Vince almost dies at every show. Bless his heart, going all out every time. Thank you for your dedication.
"shout out to texas, I forgive you, I promise I forgive you just don't put me in a tree... Anways" LOL
Vince is love, Vince is life
Summertime '06 was Album Of The Fucking Year
Future Of This Rap Shit
One hit away from Global recognition. Good needed music.
i'd go to one of his shows just see him talk to people like they stupid lmao he's so funny
"all these white folks chantin when i ackz them 'where my niggas at?', goin crazy got me goin crazy i cant get with that, wonder if they know I know they won't go where we kick it at"
Bet that line didn't even register with all the trendy hipsters in the Austin crowd who it is blatantly about.
+TheWatsonGreen bruh that's a one hundred statement. I saw him at Stubbs. I was prolly 1 of like 15 minorities there. And the only song people sang along to was Norf Norf. Shit was a little upsetting, but I'm glad vince is prospering.
Edit: I just saw that this was the show I was at. Lmao. Girl next to me was mad at the turn up. I think I yelled "Play Chapo" around the 8 minute mark, even tho that's an A$ton Matthews joint, which he also murdered.
Before watching this I only knew Vince from Ascension. Thanks for recording this so awesomely. I'm a Vince fan now.
The dj sounds like the kid in the backseat who hast heard the song enough to know the lyrics
can someone make an article or something on how much vince's fashion choices have changed
he has the best crowd banter.

+Kelvin Vela "All the white folks chanting when I ask them where my nigga's at? Going crazy got me going crazy I can't get wit dat. Wonder if they know I know they won't go where we kick it at".
+Esharido exactly. The lines being shown right here. not on wax but real life
I agree. I've noticed it to. Regardless, shouldn't a fan be a fan? Why does it matter what color the faces in the crowd are?

+PushYourEdge You right now that I watch it again

+Tyler Dreary backup mc bro
+Jaïr van Hek Yea, im just not a fan of that shit, especially like here when hes louder and sounds like hes the one actually rapping
Tyler Dreary me neither haha, rather just have the original adlibs on the track.
+Tyler Dreary westside ty
+Tyler Dreary yea just for adlibs to keep the energy going
The best rappers is based off their hits and stage presences vince sadly misses a hit song and good stage presences wich sucks he's dope. Don't believe me check drake live he has great sp vs asasp rocky who has awful sp although both have hits making them popular and rich.
PigObot He's too real to make "Hit songs" :'c
What do you need to have good stage presence? What does it take?
@@NaeThaGoddesz44 confidence.
I just cant realise one thing half of white USA since 90is grow up on hip hop, and how the fuck you can be racist when you listen rap?
Because it's older people who are racist, not the youth.
