Much like the African Diaspora, Jidenna's music proudly encompasses a wide range of vibes, ranging from Afrobeats, funk, R&B, to hip-hop. This kaleidoscope of cultures, eras, and sounds cemented the GRAMMY® nominated multi-platinum rapper, singer, songwriter, producer, and actor as an international sonic pioneer who quietly paved the way for the 21st century Afropolitan music revival. Regarding rap as a gentleman's sport, he applies eloquence and global consciousness to the culture with verbal excellence and style. Since 2015, he has distinguished himself as a rare talent equally at home on President Obama's playlist, the court at the 2020 NBA All-Star Celebrity Game, or on-screen in HBO's Insecure and A Black Lady Sketch Show. Jidenna formally introduced himself with the double-platinum "Classic Man" garnering a GRAMMY® nomination for "Best Rap/Sung Collaboration." The song paved the way for his full-length debut, The Chief, which received praise from The New York Times. The 2019 follow-up, 85 To Africa, resonated globally attracting praise from Pitchfork, The Guardian, and Entertainment Weekly. In 2020, Jidenna contributed "Feng Shui" to Insecure: Season 4 soundtrack and "Black Magic Hour" to African On All Sides. Time hailed the latter among "The Best New Songs of July 2020" calling it "entrancing." Clocking just shy of 1 billion total streams and receiving worldwide acclaim, he continues to elevate the playing field with his new single "Blush" and forthcoming third album.

Jidenna and his band are the bomb. He is an outstanding artist and performer. I can't wait to see him again. I had an amazing time. He's like a modern day Prince only taller and more masculine:)
Jidenna is a natural performer! He really engages with his fans and he was even in the crowd with us several times. I also met him and WOW. He is so personable and sweet and he didn’t have us waiting HOURS to perform like most artist. lol The concert was every bit of amazing! I LOVE YOU JIDENNA! you will not be disappointed with him on stage!
This concert gave me life. Everyone shared a common vibe. I met a galore of kindred spirits. I regret not purchasing the meet and greet package. Shout out to the House of Blues Security that assisted my cousin when she damn near fainted. They didn't miss a beat, were very helpful, and made sure she was taken care of. We both send our thanks and love. Jidenna is finer than an Egyptian God in person. He put on a magnificent show. He is the VAPORIZA to my SUFI WOMEN!! Peace to the GODS!!
Great music from album. The venue could have done better with the mics; it was very low for the performers before Jidenna. Also, the DJ or waiting music was wack! Please think about the fans as they wait. It would have been nice to dance and have some fun till it was time for Jidenna to performed
Jidenna is such a phenomenal artist. I enjoyed literally every second of the concert. He is a dream. He is in tune with his audience and he is personable. I will be attending any and every show he has during his career. I love his music and him, I am a fan for life!
This was THE best show from start to finish! He sounds exactly the same in person as he does on the album, he's full of energy, the show started on time & everything was simply amazing.
This concert made me feel everything! She's so unique and entertaining it's unreal. I felt like I was at the R&B, rap, and rock concert. I'm still processing everything LOL
Second Jidenna show I have seen. Always puts on a great performance.
Wow! What a show! High energy, beautiful sound, and lots of love in the atmosphere! My husband and I rated it as one of the best concerts we’ve ever been to! More Jidenna please!!!!!
Very energetic performance from beginning to end. There’s nothing better than an artist who enjoys what he does and respects his fans. If Jidenna is ever in your city GO SEE HIM. You won’t regret it.
I absolutely loved Jidenna’s performance at the House of Blues Houston! He was everything and more than what I could have imagined. It was a very intimate. I have been to many events, paid lots of money, and never had an experience with so much crowd interaction. I feel like this was one of the best moments of my life!!
Jidenna was great live in person. I'm happy to say that how he sounds on all of his albums is exactly how he sounds in person. The background to the show was great and it really embodied what his alum was about. I will definitely be at his next concert the next time that he is in town.
Jidenna was AMAZING!!! Gave a 2 hour show! He is a performer, an activist and uber talented- sing, dance, play piano and guitar. The opening acts were good as well. Must see!
I had so much fun at the show. I can’t complain about it not starting in time, because Nigerians don’t do anything on time. I expected to wait a little bit. But it was all worth it. I’m still on cloud 9. Please book him again. I’ll pay to see the same show, I don’t care. I also really enjoyed his opening acts.
His interaction with the crowd is everything! He jumped into the audience & brought people on stage ♡
Great show! He doesn't disappoint! I really enjoyed the entire show and would definitely go to another one of his shows. I love that he's an artist that sounds just as good live as he does on the album.
Jidenna is an amazing performer! He has tons of energy and kept the audience hyped! Had a really good time! He can danceeeee!
I really enjoyed JiDenna’a 85toAfricaTour. My friends I got out tickets with the discount promotions and it was one of the best shows I’ve been to at the House of Blues. JiDenna was very interactive with the crowd, he came into the crowd and danced/preformed. The only issue is how long it took for the show to start and for him to perform. The doors opened at 7pm and the first opening act didn’t go on stage until like 8:30. Then JiDenna didn’t come on until 10pm. Overall I had a blast.
Great stage presence! Light show was totally on point. His energy was everything!
