EOS Melanie Fiona Concert!!!


   
 
     
         In my last post I mentioned how I was going to see Melanie Fiona. When I say it was amazing, that's an under statement. It was a free private concert apart of 5 city tour put on by Roc Nation and EOS (famous for their lip balms). The tour included Melanie Fiona, Bridget Kelly and Elijah Blake. They are all great performers who are signed with Roc Nation. The concert was in a small intimate venue so you could get up close and personal with the artists. I am a fan of all three and familiar with their music but I was most excited to see Melanie Fiona. Melanie Fiona is one of my favorite artists, I will never forget the day she tweeted me on twitter (I almost died). I've done a post before about Melanie and one of her music videos.


Elijah Blake on stage
Elijah Blake was one of the featured artists. He is very talented and an amazing writer.
He's mostly known for his behind the scene work for writing various songs for Rihanna, Trey Songs and even Usher. He wrote on of Ushers hits "Climax". He is currently working on his work projects now. He released his first mixtape earlier this year titled Bijoux 22. You should definitely check it out. He also has a music video out featuring Common for his single "X.O.X." The video is featured below.

Bridget Kelly singing "Special Delivery"


















So know Bridget Kelly for singing "Empire State Of Mind" with Jay-Z at a live event to fill in for Alicia Keys. She's been signed to Roc Nation for a good little minute now. She mentioned on stage that before participating in this tour she had been on tour opening for Mary J Blige. She has been currently working on her up coming album. Earlier this summer she had a single out featuring Kendrick Lamar titled "Street Dreamin".  One of my other favorite songs by her is "Special Delivery". Here's her video featuring Kendrick Lamar below.




Pics of Melanie Fiona performing!
Miss Melanie Fiona!!!! Where do I begin? Like I said before she's one of my favorite artists. She is an amazing artist but even better live. She was very nice and would interact with the crowd and also performed some of her new music for us.  She performed some of her hits like: "It Kills Me", "Gone and Never Coming Back", her song with Cee Lo "Fool For You", "Wrong Side Of A Love Song" and more. I felt really blessed to see one of my favorite artist in an intimate concert for free can't get any better than that. I will definitely try to see her again in concert. Here's one of her video's "Wrong Side Of A Love Song" which was directed by Larenz Tate. (her Grammy nominated single)
