American rapper Kodak Black, who has more than 22 million monthly listeners on Spotify with famous songs like “Zeze” and “Super Gremlin,” had what was claimed to be his biggest concert to date in Hawaii at The Warehouse on Dec. 10.
By “the biggest,” the organizers probably meant the number of tickets they sold was more than the location had capacity for. Fans waited in line for up to three hours in front of the venue’s entrance and had to wait again once inside in hopes to be let into the actual performance space.
Luckily for those waiting who weren’t let in until after 11 p.m., the poor organization at the entrance didn’t mean they missed out on Kodak Black himself, since the rapper didn’t get on stage until well after midnight.
When the rapper first stepped on stage wearing a bright orange jacket, the audience booed. The disappointed crowd was clearly annoyed by the delay and clashes between people trying to push their way inside the room.
Black didn’t bother to deliver a full performance, either. He danced to his backing tracks and paced the stage without using the microphone in his hand or even trying to lip-sync the songs.
The culmination of the crowd’s negative vibes reached its peak when two women in the audience started physically fighting. Instead of pulling them apart, most of the men around them pulled out their cellphones and started recording video of the catfight, sexualizing the women and the violence.
After the last song, Black didn’t seem interested in his fans, simply disappearing backstage and abruptly ending the night, leaving behind a tired and mutually annoyed audience to make their way back home.
