Even a tornado watch couldn’t keep fans away from Fiserv Forum last night as B2K headlined The Millennium Tour Presents: The Boys 4 Life Tour, bringing a wave of early-2000s R&B and hip-hop nostalgia to the city.
Umbrellas and ponchos filled the streets outside the arena, but inside, thousands of fans were ready to relive the soundtrack of the Y2K era with a lineup stacked with artists who helped define it.
The evening unfolded as a rapid-fire celebration of throwback hits, beginning with Amerie, who kicked off the show with the kind of smooth R&B energy that immediately set the tone. From there the lineup rolled forward with Yung Joc, B5, Crime Mob, and Dem Franchize Boyz, each delivering short but energetic sets that had the crowd bouncing and singing along. The Millennium Tour has built its reputation on these stacked lineups, essentially turning the night into a living playlist of early-2000s radio favorites.
As the show moved deeper into the evening, the nostalgia only intensified. Pretty Ricky brought their signature R&B swagger to the stage before Bow Wow delivered one of the night’s most anticipated performances, running through hits that many fans in attendance grew up with. Throughout the night, the arena felt less like a traditional concert and more like a celebration of a musical era, with fans eagerly reliving songs that once dominated the charts and MTV.
By the time B2K finally took the stage to close out the night, the crowd was fully energized. Celebrating their 25th anniversary, the group delivered a headlining set packed with the songs that made them one of the most recognizable boy bands of the early 2000s. The performance served as both a reminder of their lasting influence and a fitting finale to a night dedicated to the artists who shaped the sound of the era.
Photographer Dan Garcia was there to capture the highlights from the stormy night inside the arena, documenting the stacked lineup of performers and the fans who refused to let the weather keep them from a night of nostalgia.

Milwaukee got a full blast of nostalgia on Saturday night as The Millennium Tour rolled into town, packing the Fiserv Forum with screaming fans, throwback vibes, and a stacked lineup that made it feel like the early 2000s never left.
From start to finish, this diverse tour brought together R&B smoothness, club bangers, and chart-dominating hits that defined an era. With Trey Songz, Rick Ross, Omarion, Bow Wow, Plies, Boosie, the Ying Yang Twins, RSVP (Ray J, Sammie, Bobby V and Pleasure P) and Nivea all taking the stage, this year’s edition of the tour leaned heavy on nostalgia without ever feeling dated. The energy? Immaculate. The setlist choices? All killer, no filler.
Nivea Starts the Night With Sass and Soul
Opening up the evening was R&B singer Nivea, who warmed up the crowd with soulful vocals and serious Y2K diva energy. Her time on stage may have been short, but with a classic like “Don’t Mess With My Man,” she had R&B fans singing every word.
Ying Yang Twins Didn’t Make Fans “Wait”
Next up were the Ying Yang Twins, and if anyone thought a Saturday night in Milwaukee needed a jumpstart, these guys made sure that wasn’t the case. Their club anthems like “Salt Shaker” and “Wait (The Whisper Song)” had the crowd moving like it was a crunk-era basement party. It’s impressive how this ATL duo can still bring this much chaotic, booty-shaking energy with nothing but a couple of mics and massive charisma.
RSVP: An R&B Dream Team
RSVP—made up of Ray J, Sammie, Bobby V, and Pleasure P (formerly of Pretty Rick) —proved that R&B supergroups are still very much a vibe. Each brought their own solo hits to the stage, while also showing off their synergy as a group. Between the outfits, dancing, and playful energy, they served up pure entertainment and some of the smoothest moments of the night.
Boosie Brings the Unfiltered Energy
When Boosie hit the stage, the energy turned all the way up. He brought his signature raspy intensity and straight-from-the-block realness to the Fiserv Forum, performing street anthems like “Wipe Me Down” and “Set It Off” that had the entire building yelling along. Boosie doesn’t sugarcoat a thing—his set was raw, passionate, and unapologetically Boosie. The crowd ate up every minute, reminding us that his music still hits just as hard in 2025 as it did back in the day.
Plies Brings the Southern Swagger
Following Boosie, Plies delivered one of the most charismatic sets of the night. With tracks like “Bust It Baby,” “Shawty,” and “Hypnotized,” he brought that distinct Southern charm mixed with club-ready confidence. His stage presence was effortless, vibing with the crowd and making it feel like we were all invited to a private party. Plies knows his hits have aged like fine wine, and he served them with style.
Rick Ross Delivers a Masterclass in Swagger
When Rick Ross took the stage, it felt like the whole arena shifted. The Boss, and the biggest name on the lineup, brought a sense of grandeur to his set, commanding the stage with luxury, confidence, and a string of anthems like “Hustlin’” and “Aston Martin Music.” He didn’t need theatrics, his catalog and presence were more than enough.
Omarion Brings the Smooth
Omarion’s performance was part concert, part dance clinic. From “Ice Box” to “Touch,” the former B2K frontman moved like he hasn’t aged a day. He might have had the most well-rounded set of the night—equal parts sultry, nostalgic, and high energy. And yes, the signature moves made an appearance.
Bow Wow Proves He’s Still Got It
Bow Wow entered with the confidence of someone who’s been doing this since before he hit puberty and he reminded the Fiserv crowd why he was once the prince of teen rap. From “Let Me Hold You” to “Bounce With Me,” he delivered a crowd-pleasing set that had everyone singing and was far from “lil”.
Trey Songz Closes With R&B Fireworks
Trey Songz took the headline spot and absolutely delivered with a seductive, high-energy finale that capped off the night perfectly. Songs like “Bottoms Up,” “Say Aah,” and “Can’t Help But Wait” proved why he’s still a dominant voice in modern R&B. He brought just the right mix of vocal acrobatics, shirtless moments, and crowd interaction to send fans home smiling.
A Nostalgic Night Worth Every Minute
While each artist had around 15 to 30 minutes, none of the sets felt rushed or incomplete. In fact, the brevity meant there was no room for fille, just hit after hit, woven together into a non-stop mixtape of our teenage years. The production was slick, the transitions smooth, and the love in the crowd was undeniable.
The Millennium Tour has always been more than just a concert, it’s a celebration of an era, a shared playlist of our formative years and perhaps our iPad Nanos, and a reminder that good music never gets old. Milwaukee showed up and showed out, and this tour proved it’s still got plenty of gas in the tank.
