MGK/TRIPPIE REDD
MGK/Trippie Redd, The Bluestone, Columbus, OH. 4/4/24.
MGK and Trippie Redd recently released a new album together titled “genre : sadboy” on March 29th. The same day the two Ohio natives decided to announce a free pop-up concert series of two shows in Irving Plaza, New York (April 2nd) and Columbus, Ohio (April 4th). Fans had to submit a request for up to two tickets and were contacted the day before the show to let them know if they were able to score tickets. As the doors opened and the crowd flooded in, it was clear that this was going to be a night to remember. The intimate setting of The Bluestone created the perfect setting for an unforgettable night of music. MGK and Trippie Redd delivered a high-energy performance, seamlessly blending tracks from their new album "genre: sadboy" with fan favorites of their solo music. And to top it all off, another Ohio native, Joe Burrow (Cincinnati Bengals quarterback) made a surprise appearance in the balcony and it sent the crowd into a frenzy, adding an extra layer of excitement to an already unforgettable night. Nearing the end of the night, MGK and Trippie Redd took a moment to thank their hometown fans for their unwavering support throughout their careers and explained how this concert was a way for them to give back to their fans. It was a touching gesture that resonated with the audience and served as a reminder of the special connection between artists and their fans.
