Intimate but lit nonetheless, Eric Bellinger turned out SOB’ s in NYC during his Eric B For President U. S. Tour. His sound being a mixture between hip-hop and R & B, everything from 21 Savage to Jodeci defined the turn up with DJ Vision before he hit the stage. But once he stepped out, crooning Lay Up immediately followed by Repeat, the energy was even crazier. Then at one point he slowed things down and one special audience member, a true Eric Bellinger fan, got to experience the classic serenade on stage to ASAP from his 2014 album, The Rebirth. Despite the concert setlist being mixed with his old and new material, the audience sung it all, word for word. Now some may not know, but the LA native singer-songwriter has been in the game for a few years now and has over 10 projects to choose from. From the past year alone, he’ s released 5 of them and I can honestly say that I don’ t know any other artist doing this and producing quality work at that. He never disappoints and does it all independently under his own label, YFS( Your Favorite Song), which is also his tagline. And his live vocals were amazing, riffing the roof off the club and going into falsetto like it was nothing. Sometimes concerts make me double think if I should go as hard for an artist, especially when it comes to r & b singers. If the vocals aren’ t right then I have to look at them sideways. In this case, I respect him even more. Don’ t sleep on Eric B. and brace yourself to have several favorite songs.
