In the digital age, where the lines between social media and the real world blur, TikTok’s first live global music event, “TikTok: In The Mix,” held at Sloan Park in Mesa, Arizona, was not just a concert but a groundbreaking cultural event. This spectacle bridged the digital divide, bringing the vibrant, diverse world of TikTok into a live, palpable experience.
The lineup featured some of the biggest names across various music genres (Cardi B, Peso Pluma and Niall Horan to name a few) and showcased the platform’s broad appeal and its transformative impact on the music industry.
The event began with Charlie Puth, who delivered a masterful set which showcases his musical talents. Puth’s versatility as an artist was evident as he fluidly transitioned between energetic pop anthems and soulful ballads. His performance of hits like “Attention” and “One Call Away” showcased his knack for catchy melodies and relatable lyrics, while his emotional rendition of “See You Again” tugged at the heartstrings of the audience. His stage presence was magnetic, effortlessly engaging the crowd, whether he was behind the piano or animating the stage with his dynamic performance.
Anitta, the Brazilian powerhouse, delivered a performance that was nothing short of a global music journey. Her set began with a stunning field-level performance of “Envolver,” surrounded by her talented dancers. As she made her way to the stage, the audience was treated to a mix of her hits in multiple languages, showcasing her versatility and global appeal. Her live debut of “I Wanna F” and her Tomorrow X Together collaboration “Back for More” were particularly notable, highlighting her ability to connect with fans across different cultures and languages.
TikTok’s commitment to nurturing new talent was also highlighted as show runners set the stage for the evening’s headliners. Isabel LaRosa, Renee Rapp, Kaliii, LU KALA, and Sam Barber, all part of the TikTok Elevate program, brought a fresh and exciting energy to the event. Each performance was unique, demonstrating the rich diversity of music styles and sounds that TikTok helps to promote and cultivate.
Following Anitta on the main stage, Peso Pluma brought the Latin heat to the stage, electrifying the audience with his biggest hits and the live debut of “Bellakeo.” His surprise collaboration with Anitta on stage was a highlight, showcasing the dynamic and collaborative nature of music in the TikTok era.
The surprise performance by Offset was a strategic highlight of the evening. His rendition of his Migos’ record “Bad and Boujee” energized the crowd, showcasing the power of music to surprise and delight. Offset’s unexpected appearance was a testament to the unpredictability and excitement that live music can bring, especially in an event like this that blends traditional concert experiences with the spontaneity of the digital age.
Niall Horan’s set was a journey through his evolution from a boy band sensation to a mature solo artist. His performance of “Nice to Meet Ya,” “This Town,” and “Heaven” displayed his range and depth as a musician. The inclusion of “Story of My Life” from his One Direction days was a nostalgic nod to his roots and an obvious fan favorite, while “Slow Hands” showed off his current musical direction and was a great end to his performance.
Cardi B, in an iconic red jumpsuit, was the embodiment of a modern music superstar. Her performance was a high-energy, charismatic showcase of her biggest hits and collaborations. The crowd was completely in sync with her, singing along to every word of tracks like “Up,” “Bodak Yellow,” and “I Like It.” Her stage presence was commanding and electrifying, ensuring that the concert ended on the highest note possible. The night concluded with an impressive fireworks display, symbolizing the explosive impact of the event.
“TikTok: In The Mix” was a testament to the transformative power of digital platforms in shaping musical experiences.

In support of his sophomore studio album of the same name, Charlie Puth brought his headlining Voicenotes Tour to the Chicago’s lakeside Huntington Bank Pavilion at Northerly Island. With an opening set from the diversely talented, Hailee Steinfeld, Puth kept the packed crowd singing and dancing throughout the night.
Up first, Hailee Steinfeld kicked off her performance with her debut 2015 single, ‘Love Myself’. The empowering track perfectly represents Steinfeld’s growing catalog, making her a big role in the new wave of female artists in modern pop music. With songs like ‘Love Myself’ and ‘Most Girls’, Steinfeld delivers a catchy pop sound with a message her audience is happy to get behind.
And if you love her music, than you may love her acting as well, as Steinfeld is perhaps even more accomplished through her acting than she is with her impressive and growing career in music. Steinfeld announced her love for Chicago last night, and we can definitely expect her to return in the near future.
With the stage set, it was time for the man of the night to take stage. Setting the tone with Michael Jackson’s ‘PYT’, Puth opened his set with his new album’s opening track, ‘The Way I Am’. And throughout the night, the singer/songwriter showed us the way he is from start to finish, putting his quirky personality and infectious smile on display.
A self-proclaimed nerd, Charlie Puth will be the first to tell you how unlikely his rise to pop stardom is, but pop music couldn’t be luckier to have him. While your average pop star rises to the top of the charts through the help of a talented team of writers, Puth is a rare breed, writing his own music which makes his tracks especially personal.
Puth continued on with his set with tracks like ‘Marvin Gaye’, ‘How Long’, his new track ‘Empty Cups’ and ‘LA Girls’, a record which certainly made the Chicago girls jealous. After reading a couple suggestive fan signs in the audience, with some of Puth’s older fans wishing that Charlie would replace the City of Angels with the Windy City, Puth performed his 2018 track.
Charlie told stories about tracks between performances and even showed off his skills on the key-tar. Then to end things off on a strong (voice)note, Puth finished his set with his singles ‘One Call Away’, ‘Attention’ and his Voicenotes track ‘Boy’, an ode for some of the older women in the audience.
From head to toe, Charlie Puth is one of the biggest multi-dimensional artists in pop music today. His writing is second to none, and his skills on piano are as impressive as his voice. If the Voicenotes Tour hasn’t already rolled through your local market, be sure to get your tickets for one of the remaining shows at Charlie Puth’s official website.
