Kesha

Rising to fame in the mid naughties with her juggernaut number one hit, 'Tik-Tok' Kesha became the pop-princess of a generation with her debut album Animal reaching the top of the charts in countries across the globe. After a long hiatus, where Kesha battled with personal stress and legal battles, the pop mistress is back with a new lease of fire and grit, ready to re-claim her sparkling crown.

Macklemore

Seattle-native Macklemore quickly stole the attention of the world with his witty debut hit 'Thrift Shop' in 2013. Hitting number one in countries across the world 'Thrift Shop' was the people's song of the year and propelled the rapper into international star-dom.

Macklemore great- Kesha underwhelming.

I'm so glad Kesha played before Macklemore. She was very disappointing. Her stage was set up so that it seemed very busy whereas Macklemore's stage was very cohesive. Kesha didn't interact or engage the crowd very well. Her constant cursing was distracting at times. I personally think her volume levels were not right- her voice was hard to hear at times over the music. There were a few times I wasn't even sure if she was singing. Her costume changes also got distracting. I didn't understand the short videos she played in between. Macklemore on the other hand was amazing! From the very beginning he commanded the audience. He was able to interact and really get the crowd excited. His volume levels between his voice and the rest of the music seemed spot on. He was definitely the headliner here and provided an entire experience vs just playing a bunch of songs. The transitions for his costume changes had meaning and made sense. I would definitely pay to go see him again!! Not her. ... Read more

5 stats for Macklemore. 2 for kesha

Seems every city had the same experience. Macklemore was INCREDIBLE! So much energy, audience interaction, his talking between songs was hilarious, there were songs I had never heard before and found myself immediately loving... No complaints! Kesha was different than expected. I'll admit I do not know much of her new stuff but a friend who does said that didn't really sound the same either but all her old stuff was played differently and hard to dance around to which was what I really looking forward to- a lot of people starting leaving during her set and the energy from the crowd just wasn't there, which is a shame because she closed with Praying and TIk Tok which were both very well done and redeeming. ...

More Macklemore! - Kesha, you're right. This place did blow.

Never heard of or saw Macklemore before but he has converted this heathen to a believer! All the energy, theatrics, crowd interaction, great anecdotes, and knew how to relate to the home turf (by his own admission he played Schuba's six years ago?!) Kesha was a disappointment from the moment she took the stage with a can of Pabst. Nothing sounded like her albums (why am I here?), swore at every other word (yawn), spitting that piss beer on her fans (?), spending way to much time talking about the clothes she's been accumulating (??) and somehow managed to make "Jolene" boring? Kesha's set rocked me hardest when the house lights came up and "9 to 5" came on. There is an Internets worth of GIFs to describe how shitty Kesha was. Go find one you like. ... Read more
