Concert Review: From East Atlanta with Love Tour w/ 6LACK & Summer Walker

R&B Sensation 6LACK made a stop through Charlotte, NC for his From East Atlanta With Love tour featuring Summer Walker. It was a memorable night for everyone in attendance thanks to 6LACK and Summer.

First and foremost, I would like to point out that the show was firreeeeeeee!!!!!!! I'm sure everyone else at the Filmore Charlotte that night would say the same if asked about the show. The venue was full of fun energy from start to finish, and almost every background was represented throughout the crowd. Although the opening act wasn't notably recognized by everyone in the crowd, he did an admirable job to warm everyone up for Summer Walker, and eventually 6LACK.


As soon as Summer Walker touched the stage, the crowd was LIT!!. Prior to the show, I was aware of her abundant talent and recognized her as an outstanding performer--but I was assured of this once I heard her live vocals, which resonated so much that it shook the entire crowd. She's also a multifaceted performer who plays the guitar and keyboard while performing. She closed her set by singing “Girls Need Love”, off her recently released project Last Day of Summer-- and every woman in the building FELT THAT! I would certainly recommend to any Summer Walker fan to see her live show, and if you're not a fan, her performance is one that could change you're mind


The night was capped off by the headliner himself,  east Atlanta native, and the self proclaimed "Rapper disguised as n R&B artist", 6LACK.  He was greeted with screaming fans once he came on to the stage, as everyone couldn't wait to see him from the moment they stepped into the venue. Throughout 6LACK's performance, there was rarely a moment where you couldn't hear fans singing his lyrics word for word. His set had the perfect symmetry, and was very captivating through his transparent passion for his music.

Learning at the end of the show that he was dealing with the flu was something to marvel at. For 6LACK to perform with so much energy while not feeling his best, exhibited just how much he loves what he does. As his set came to an end, and the curtains began to be drawn, the crowd couldn’t get enough of 6LACK as they continuously screamed his name. The genuine love from the crowd at that moment must've been the encouragement for him to do an encore performance.
 
Everyone left the venue that night extremely pleased with their night out in the Queen City, headlined by two amazing performances by Summer Walker & 6LACK. I would recommend to anyone that can, to go ahead and put in their PTO at work, and attend the “From East Atlanta with Love" tour. A show filled with enjoyable vocals and instrumentation, from two of the most respected young R&B acts in the game.
