He Couldn't Hear Me Over the Music: Eric Roberson

10 year veteran, Grammy-nominated Eric Roberson graced the Indig02 to reunite once again with his loyal fans.
Arguably named as the God-father of Neo Soul, Eric Roberson has consistently produced quality music, ensuring that his fans are never disappointed.
As no stranger to the scene, being a writer and vocalist for Musiq Soulchild, Jill Scott and Dwele he was anxious to ignite the stage with his one-night shown at the 02's sister venue, coinciding the release of his 8th album Mister Nice Guy.
Starting promptly at 9pm, he opened the show, looking sharp in his suit with Newness and immediately got the crowd excited, filling in for Phonte.
He also performed his impressive back catalogue including Been In Love, Dealing, She and my favourite from him thus far, Howard Girls.

I was more than impressed with his innovative 70's, go-go and OutKast sets! He rocked out with his band, and actually tried to dance (looking like someone's dad... #sustained).
But, he really enjoyed performing to his loyal fan, taking the time to connect with the audience, and signing autographs after the show. He proved his excellence once more by doing a freestyle and nailing the damn thing by taking random words from the audience.
Me and my girl @ri_starc5 enjoyed the hell out of ourselves, no way we were gonna miss this!
