Written and photographed by Marika N. JohnsonHip hop and R&B nostalgia were in full swing Friday night as Nelly brought his Where the Party At?! At one point, he left the stage with security in tow, circling through the stands and creating a frenzy. The amphitheatre’s crowd rapped word for word with line after line echoing across the venue. Backed by sharp colorful visuals and dancers that set the vibe, Nelly’s charisma and signature Midwest swagger carried the night. By blending nostalgia with a complete celebration, the Where the Party At Tour proved that these early 2000 heavyweights still know how to command a stage and keep the party going strong.
