Debuting his first studio album as an independent artist, 'College Park' with BobbyBoy Records. Moody Center ATX presents "Logic: The College Tour Park with special guest Juicy J" stopping in 23 cities across the US.
Grammy award-nominated Robert Bryson Hall II, also known as Logic, developed an interest in music as a teenager. Despite the hardships in his upbringing, music allowed for a creative outlet, creating a hustle mentality. Dropping his mixtape in 2009, the Young, Broke & Infamous rapper started to gain recognition in the rap game. The up-and-coming artist earned his spot on the "XXL 2013 Freshman Class" cover with artists such as Travis Scott, School Boy Q, and Ab-Soul. Unknowing where his rap career would take him, Logic began to sell out shows.
Being a part of one of the most influential rap crews of the 00s, Juicy J opened the show by amplifying the crowd's liveliness, performing his range of discography. From the moment Juicy J emerged onto the stage, he commanded attention with his larger-than-life persona. His infectious enthusiasm and magnetic charisma were immediately felt, creating an atmosphere of excitement and anticipation. It was clear that Juicy J was determined to leave a lasting impact on the audience. The setlist showcased Juicy J's impressive catalog of hits, including crowd favorites like "Bandz a Make Her Dance" and "No English." Each song was delivered with precision and unwavering energy, leaving no doubt as to why Juicy J has remained a prominent figure in the hip-hop scene. Juicy J's performance as the opener for Logic's tour was a thrilling and energetic display of hip-hop prowess. He captivated the crowd with his infectious energy, engaging stage presence, and a carefully curated setlist of crowd-pleasing hits. Juicy J successfully set the tone for the night, leaving the audience hungry for more as they eagerly awaited Logic's arrival.
Bringing back the 2011 nostalgia, the RattPack loaded up the old basement and hit the road. The Moody Center's intimate setting allowed for personable interactions with the artist, giving acknowledgment and attention. Proud to have loyal fans wearing his merch and singing his lyrics word for word, the artist took time to speak to the crowd. The rapper's charismatic and relatable personality gained a devoted fanbase, and the concert reflected this. The setlist was a perfect blend of Logic's greatest hits and newer material. Each song was executed flawlessly, with a live band and backing vocalists elevating the music to new heights. Standout moments included powerful renditions of "1-800-273-8255," "Homicide," and "Everybody," which left the audience in awe and craving for more.
What truly set Logic's performance apart was his ability to infuse his music with a profound sense of purpose. He used his platform to address important social issues, spreading messages of positivity, unity, and self-empowerment. These moments of introspection resonated deeply with the audience, leaving a lasting impact far beyond the concert itself.
As the night drew to a close, Logic left the stage with thunderous applause and a sense of fulfillment that reverberated throughout the venue. His concert was a masterclass in performance art, showcasing his unparalleled talent as a rapper and a storyteller.
Overall, peace, love, and positivity reflect throughout the night, leaving a testament of Logic’s artistry.
