My brief recap...
Yung Berg & Ray-J kicked off the show... Giants stadium wasn't packed yet but the crowd was feeling them. Even half of Giants Stadium is a big look. I missed the Dream.. I wanted to see it even though I hear his show is really bad. I think he brought out Fab. He also had 3 or 4 dancers with him. Then Ms. Alicia Keys did her set... she looked REALLY great and brought out Maino (i was shocked.. such a major stamp for him) and the WU!!! Raekwon, Meth & Ghostface. Her set was definitely poppin! The crowd went pretty crazy. After her was D Block (a.k.a the Lox plus randoms) who got a strong reaction and brought out Fat Joe, Red Cafe and LL COOL J! Everyone was going crazy for him.. was actually pretty surprising. Then came TPain who I think should really put out a workout tape because he and his dancers reallllllly work it out on that stage. They pretty much do everything from the running man to jumping jacks on that muf*ka. Pain brought out Shawty Lo, Rick Ross, Khaled (who brought out Ace) and Akon. Although I missed the side stage (festival stage) apparentely Akon came out w/ Kardinal on that earlier too. Then came Lil Wayne. Weezy got the craziest, loudest reaction... the kids love this dude. BUTTTTT, his show really isnt all that. He had gym class heroes as his band but they were supposed to perform (I saw Travis and everything) but didn't and i'm assuming because Weezy spent about 10 minutes of his show singing a song about Pus*y. Yes, a full long ass song saying such amazing (sarcasm) things as "i'm the pus*y monster" and going on and on and on and onnnnnnn. He brought out Shawty Lo back out, brought out Titty boi (spelling?) from Playaz Circle (apparently they are coming out with a new single) and Kanye popped up at the end for his part of Lollipop remix. Then Wayne ended the show by playing Whitney Houston "I will always love you" and putting a robe on and kinda singing along to the song then bouncing. Such a strange show but you cant help but f*ck with this guy who just doesnt give a crap about what anyone says or thinks. He was prob high. I think i saw a quick cup in his hand.
Then came Kanye... he did his think as always.. he's just a true entertainer. He brought Consequence out (kanye realllly f*cks w/ him) and then Tpain came back out. Kanye did a freestyle about superficial chicks who want you for material things and it kinda came across like he was going at someone (maybe just maybe, his ex??)! Shout out to Ms Joi Star who ripped as Kanye's backup singer. Only chick on stage and ripppppin it. Also shout to Atrak who was def not hiding the fact that Ms Kid Sister is his wifey.
By this point my neck hurt from looking up at the stage and i just wanted to leave but i had to wait to see Public Enemy. They def had the 21+ crowd excited but honestly by this point i watched 3 songs and bounced... taking the chance that Flava Flav would do something super exciting (sarcasm again!). Chuck D sounded great but looked like he was pulled away from gardening or something.. he was def looking like a grown man.
I left and i know i missed Jim Jones and whoever else he was bringing out. Rihanna was supposed to perform but today she suddenly was off the lineup... wonder why. I'll find out soon.
Anyways thats my recap. PEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACE.
oh and I couldnt go into song by song breakdowns because i'd really just be here all night.
