DOM KENNEDY IN CONCERT:
Up-and-coming Los Angeles rapper Dom Kennedy combines minimal beats with clever lyrical wordplay to arrive at a bounce-worthy sound brimming with playfulness and swagger. Taking the stage to deliver laid-back favorites like "My Type of Party", it's clear that Kennedy's live shows are just that -- a chance to cut loose and get funky with friends in a party-worthy atmosphere. From his Dodgers cap to his Cali drawl, Kennedy is an authentic homegrown talent with an appeal that transcends his Golden State roots, making him a must-see act for those seeking the next big thing in hip hop.
BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:
Dom Kennedy, aka Dominic Hun, was raised in South Central LA on a steady diet of basketball and hip hop. After spending some time studying business management at a local community college, he decided music was where his passion lay and began writing rhymes and producing beats. He released his debut mixtape 25th hour in 2008, quickly becoming a local radio sensation with popular songs like "Watermelon Sundae". Several more successful mixtapes followed, and in 2011 he released his full-length debut album From the Westside with Love, II. The record cracked the Top 20 of both the rap and hip hop/R&B charts, establishing him as a potent new force in West Coast rap and drawing him out for national touring. He followed up in 2013 with his sophomore album Get Home Safely, a critically and commercially successful release that peaked at No. 3 on the rap chart. A charismatic young performer with big things on the horizon, Kennedy continues to flex his considerable lyrical and production skills on his must-see tours.
The event was beyond amazing! Dom Kennedy knows how to make his fans happy. I lost my voice from all the screaming of excitement I did. This is my 3rd show I've attended and I don't get tired of them.
Dom show was just THAT show to be at! Sucks if you missed out.
I've been to 6 of his shows and this was the realist yet
Amazing performer, great concert. Opening acts were good, it was worth the wait.
This review is to say how horrible the club handles the venue. Waited for a long time to be the first people there just for the to open the door so everyone could just run to the front of the line. When there was a fight the crowd broke it up no security. Which is annoying when you keep getting pushed.
As a Los Angeles native, underground hip hop head, and fan of "medicinal" herbage, I was high and impartial to a Dom Kennedy performance in Atlanta, Ga. Dom's energy was higher than expected, injecting vigor into even his most laid back cuts. Did I expect to see Casey Veggies (or any one of his CA cohorts) surprise the crowd and perform a track from the recently released OPM project? Yes. Did it happen? No. Before Dom appeared, the lanky string bean, Nipsey Hussle, vamped up and down the stage, prepping the crowd for an evening of underrated west coast hits. Dom is not lyrical, an amazing performer, or overly charismatic but he represents the aesthetic, culture, and sentiments of the Los Angeles generation I experienced.
Had fun, the crowd was cool nothing to crazy and the venue wasn't to hot.
Dom and Nipsey killed it, crowd was hype! Also met Nipsey Hussle walking they parking lot, hammer.
BEST SINGLE PERSON CONCERT BY FAR! SAME LEVEL AS DRAKE'S CLUB PARADISE
Started early (8:30), ended early (9:30). OPM got my money...
I love Dom Kennedy's music and I feel he is so fresh and different. He has a west coast vibe and seems to be in the game because he loves it, and he is something so refreshing to what is considered rap out here these days. However, I did not appreciate waiting for over 2 hours for him to come out and perform. Especially when there was not an opening act. Just standing around listening to what appeared to be someone's playlist. That was a long wait, and no matter how many drinks you've had or whatever else one does at concerts, it still didn't mask the fact that this artist took too long to come out. Especially if you are not going to have an opening act. His performance was ok. His voice seemed little hoarse. But he did his thing despite all that.
Dom Kennedy did his thing at Fine Line cafe, in Minneapolis Minnesota last Saturday. The atmosphere was nice and lowkey! The drinks was strong and the music was loud and clear! Only issue I had was that I overpaid for my ticket ..cause it was 15 at the door and ample amount of room!! But overall the Concert was awesome and the experience was priceless!!
Dom Kennedy went soo hard this night! I was in love all over again with him!!
dope show, met a lot of cool ppl, dom brought out yg, nipsey, & veggies just to name my favorites. after the show i went out on to hollywood blvd, and man oh man, what a night life out there. you have to experience it for your self
it was a great concert but i wish the main person Dom Kennedy would've performed longer than just an hour an half. Great songs, good crowd it was a great time overall.
The show was amazing, if you're a true fan you will definitely enjoy it. Dom's set had a lot of variety from his album and mixtapes but he did include a little more new stuff than old. The crowd was really hype and if you love Dom's music you'll love seeing him perform live. The music box venue was gorgeous and it's an experience I will never forget, speaking as a fan since 25th hour.
