The concerts which changed my perspective of music
If we're talking about 2hollis’s concert, not only was he very energetic, but the openers (Mechatok and Rommulas) also gave the audience positive energy that carried throughout the whole gig. As soon as 2hollis went on stage, the crowd was very dynamic and loud. The mosh pits on the right side of the venue were not as intense as those in the middle, where people were getting stepped on and needed help. But the security acted quickly and helped those in trouble. I really enjoyed my time at this concert, as not only were the people around me respectful and gave space to those who needed it, but I also got to hear one of my favourite artists perform live.
2hollis began as 'Drippysoup' just seven years ago and is now performing for large crowds worldwide. His music blends influence like Chief Keef (early 2010s), Xaviersobased, Snowstrippers, and bits of Crystal Castles and Drain Gang.
“Both Yung Lean and 2hollis' performances are something everyone needs to experience in their lives.”
When comparing Yung Lean’s concert to 2hollis, I experienced more mosh pits at Yung Lean's. I was there by myself and really had no protection, so I did get hit once in the head, and some people stepped on my feet, but it did not change my mood. I was still as happy to see Yung Lean perform live as I was before I got into the venue. Also, there was more pushing as I was in the middle of the venue, where mosh pits are more likely to open; yet again, it did not change my positive view of the concert. This concert was also very dynamic, and the artist did not disappoint. If talking of the openers, one of them was Yung Sherman, who was getting booed at and not really respected by the crowd. But when the second opener came out, the crowd went crazy. It was Esdeekid. When Yung Lean came on stage and played ‘Smirnoff Ice,’ the crowd calmed down and vibed to the music. It stayed like that throughout the whole concert.
Yung Lean started around 2012 with the ‘Sad Boys’ and gained traction in 2013 after 'Ginseng Strip 2002' went viral. He is seen as a pioneer of early Cloud Rap.
Overall, both Yung Lean and 2hollis' performances are something everyone needs to experience
in their lives. This was one of the best things I spent my money on.
