Trying to be cool, The Huffing Post posted an article on the Supreme Court and described them as giving a ‘Kanye Shrug’ to gay marriage. Nothing wrong with a good Ye reference, but they made one big mistake.

Earlier this month, Kanye West received a great deal of bad press after a misunderstanding where he tried to get everyone in the crowd to stand up, during a concert in Australia. After pointing out a couple of fans in the audience, Kanye later realized that one of the individuals was in a wheelchair and then continued the concert by performing his hit ‘Good Life’. After a number of misleading headlines, incorrectly suggesting that Kanye shamed the disabled man, Kanye performed a hometown surprise set at Chicago’s AAHH! Fest, just a few days later. In the audience was another very special surprise guest, but he wasn’t there to perform, he was there to enjoy some good live music.
Yesterday, I witnessed one of the best concerts I will ever see in my life. I have gone to a lot of different shows in my life and since my first concert ever as a kid, the Spice Girls (embarrassing, I know), I have been to over 100 shows, and it is rare that I attend one without getting my money’s worth. Despite the catalogue of great shows I have seen, yesterday stood out for many reasons, and because of an artist who wasn’t even listed on the concert’s billing. Kanye West performed at Chicago and Common’s first annual AAHH! Fest, and although it was the first, as Common said “it won’t be the last.” Special guests are always a treat at a concert, but given the circumstances and the A+ performance by Kanye, this special guest made the show not only ‘special’ but also remarkable, memorable, exceptional, and a million other words I would need to fully encompass the atmosphere that surrounded Chicago’s Union Park last night.

Yesterday the first (“but not last”) AAHH Fest! was held in Chicago’s Union Park. The hip-hop festival, pun intended, was certainly a breath of fresh air to showcase Chicago’s role in rap and hip-hop, and much more. Thanks to Chicago’s own, rapper Common, and in partnership with Donda’s House the Common Ground Foundation and the Lupe Fiasco Foundation, concert goers saw performances by Common, Lupe Fiasco, Twista, Jay Electronica, Jennifer Hudson, De La Soul, MC Lyte, many local performers who performed in the event’s early show, and a number of surprises performances from SZA, Lil Mama, Vince Staples, and of course Mr. Kanye West.
