B.E.P really got the crowd going, the energy & passion that rains from these guys is phenomenal. Will leads the band & gives them an empowerment that they use so well. I was wondering how the UK based crowd would take to them, then I was amazed by how they all joined in to tracks that half of them didn't even know.
Although not the most respected or diverse artists on the bill, they did quite well & held their own, with a pop medley of tracks, "Don't Cha" being the most recognisable. "Nicole" was shinning as usual, looking stunning & performing with questionable vocals. It has been obvious since the outset that she & "Melody" are the only ones with an ounce of talent, & with Nicole's debut solo album just around the corner, let's see how she fairs alone.
Not a great fan of PCD but there are great at what they do, the dance set at the end of the piece was pretty cool & got the crowd going. I reckon they will be around for quite some time, with or without Miss Scherzinger. What do you reckon?
The Past Weekend Saw One Of The Biggest Concerts Ever Held, "Live Earth".
This week, I will be posting my personal highlights of the world wide concert. Today, it kicks off with what was probably the best performance of the US concert, "Alicia Keys" with "If I Ain't Got You".
This is one of my favourite Keys' songs, the energy & power she expels in her performances are amazing, & this is no exception. Alicia is one of the greatest talents in R&B at the moment, a definate contender for "Mary J's" crown as the 'Queen Of Hip-Hop Soul'.

Yesterday Saw The UK Hold A Huge Scale Concert To Memory Of The Late Princess Of Wales, "Diana" On What Would Have Been Her 46th Birthday.
As well as some of the Princess' favourite musical acts including "Sir Elton John", there was a large array of modern music from "Lily Allen" to "Fergie" & "Nelly Furtado". Here are my favourite highlights from the show.
Diddy - I'll Be Missing You
A fitting tribute from Mr Sean Combs, a song to remember the great "B.I.G" was transformed into a 'celebration of life' for Diana. His performance was very over the top, with some 'cringe' worthy moments but he means well in his ways & I only have respect for the man. In the end it was a very emotional performance from a man who was obviously feeling the moment, a great tribute.
Nelly Furtado - Man Eater
Nelly did a few tracks, but performance wise this was definately the best, she really got the crowd going & was on top form, her vocals were great & her confidence in front of such a large crowd on such a special occasion was phenomenal. Whoa Nelly!
Kanye West - Medley
Kanye is on fire in this performance, he mixed a medley of his hits together in an awesome show, he ripped up the stage like no one else. Highlights included "Touch The Sky", "Gold Digger" & his fantastic new track "Stronger". Definitive performer of the evening without a doubt.
Obviously we can't forget why all these acts were together, to remember & to celebrate the life of Diana, Princess Of Wales. She was a national treasure to the people of the UK, someone who crossed boundaries & touched peoples lives, she Will be forever missed & forever remembered. R.I.P.
