Chris Brown's Royalty Live tour kicked off in Chicago at the Aragon Ballroom last night. The stage was set with live instruments so we all knew we were in for a treat. His set started with hit record Fine By Me off his highly anticipated album Royalty. Chris Brown took the stage and fans pushed there way to get as close as possible. From start to finish Chris Brown's set was full of energy featuring a live 4 piece band and dancers. This was my first time seeing Chris perform live and it was an amazing experience.
His stage presence was incredible interacting with fans and at one point he jumps off stage into the crowd to perform. Throughout his performance he mixed in songs thats he's featured on with artists like Nicki Minaj, DJ Khaled and Tyga just to name a few. The show came to a close with him performing his hit song Loyal. Some of his loyal fans were able to get some memorabilia when he threw his shirt and hat into the crowd. Be on the look out for Royalty to be released on December 18, 2015, through RCA Records as the follow-up to his sixth studio album X.

GRiZ, Danny Brown, Tokimonsta to Headline Freaky Deaky
Halloween is quickly approaching and the folks over at REACT Presents already have your party ready to go. The Chicago-based promotion company announced this years lineup for the event, on October 28, and it has Saxophone-extraordinaire, GRiZ performing alongside Danny Brown, Tokimonsta and KillParis. Danny Brown, who performed earlier this year at North Coast Music Festival, finds himself surrounded by electronic music on the lineup but his penchant for varying genres of music should allow him to settle in perfectly. GRiZ has seemed like he rented a place in Chicago this year, playing New Year's Eve at the Aragon Ballroom with Big Gigantic as well as a set last week at University of Illinois-Chicago's annual Spark in the Park with Chance The Rapper and Kendrick Lamar. For all intents and purposes, Freaky Deaky should be one hell of a show, cop tickets here.
