So last night Sham and I tipped out to an event in the city to see Theophilus perform.
-side note-
The Theophilus post coming soon
We get there and there is a mini crowd holding signs outside but we were coming down the block so from far it looks like a protest. It was only when I got closer that I realized that the signs were Ashanti posters. Supposedly she had a "secret" show in this venue and she has an album coming out. Secret? I don't agree with that marketing strategy but whatever, it's your career.
Her energy was cool but her vocal was brutal; seriously. She's beautiful but this whole thing just felt wrong. The crowd looked like they weren't interested and those that were was only like 10 people. There was only about 100 people in attendance if even that many. smh. Her last hit was with Ja Rule and now even Lil Wayne cant save him so what makes her think that her relationship with Nelly is going to help her sell?
Visuals:
Like I said the energy was there and she is beautiful but this whole thing was just a bad idea and it tanked.
