The thing that impressed me the most seeing Suga Free live was the way that he interacted with the audience, cracking jokes, encouraging us to join in, and thanking us humbly for our support of his music. His career before he went solo was a hip hop duo with DJ Quick, and it was an awesome surprise to see that Quick was performing with Suga Free when I saw him recently. Their chemistry is great, and the way that they were bouncing their energy off of each other made us all in the crowd really energised and ready to dance.
He opened with the title track from his new album The Resurrection which is a great collection of charismatic lyrics, with a conversational style to the delivery. It was exciting to hear it performed live as it’s only just been released, and the audience were going mad for it. Free took time to teach us little hooks and tags from the songs, and shouted out lines of lyrics for everyone to repeat. It was really cool to get involved to that extent, and the way that we were all dancing around seemed to give them both more energy in their performance, as they played for over 2 hours, and maintained their energy throughout the show.
They played from some of their collaborations, as well as Free having Quick support him on tracks from Hi Power Pimpin, and Sunday School, as well as the new album. They played a couple of covers and remixes too which had the audience singing along and loving the atmosphere. It was an amazing set!
