These were the standout moments and performances at the inaugural Blavity House Party in Nashville, Tennessee.
Sisqó of Dru Hill performs for the Blavity House Party Music Festival at the Municipal Auditorium on June 14, 2024 in Nashville, Tennessee.At the intersection of 615 Day 2023 and Juneteenth Weekend lies the inaugural Blavity House Party. Holsted by Blavity Media Group, the new festival took over Nashville, Tennessee, on June 14 and 15, treating locals and travelers alike to two nights of fiery performances in celebration of Juneteenth and Black Music Month.
Despite strong performances from day one’s performers, the meager audience turnout was impossible to ignore. As the day went on, the floor started to fill up, with legendary R&B group Dru Hill drawing the most passionate crowd of the night. Celebrating more than 25 years of hits,led his fellow group members in impressive renditions of timeless hits like “Tell Me” and “In My Bed,” flaunting the power of their live vocals and pristine harmonies.
Once again, the show threatened to fly off the rails near the end of the night. Rick Ross’ music was shockingly cut short about six songs into his set. After requesting his DJ drop the next track, silence ensued.
Despite being a late addition to the festival, Ross’ set came complete with flashy visuals and interludes, as well as a white bottle of Belaire champagne his team gifted an audience member shortly before he suddenly wrapped his set. Kicking things off with “I’m a Boss” before launching into unaccompanied hits like “B.M.F.” and “I’m Not a Star,” Ricky Rozay kept the crowd rocking as he recited his verses while donning a white two-piece Balenciaga set.
In addition to treating the crowd to near-flawless renditions of “Superwoman Pt. II,” “I Cry” and “1st Time,” Lil’ Mo also took a page out of Beyoncé’s book and incorporated some current hits into her set. The New York singer-songwriter blended SZA’s “Snooze,” Tinashe’s “Nasty,” Lil Uzi Vert’s “Just Wanna Rock” and TiTom and Yuppe’s “Tshwala Bam” into her set, showing off her dance skills and natural magnetism in the process.
