Last night Logic and Michael Christmas made a stop in Milwaukee for the Under Pressure World Tour. Performing for a sold out crowd at The Rave, Michael Christmas got the crowd hype (returning to Milwaukee for his first time since 2013). Following a half-hour set by DJ Rhetorik, Logic came on to close the night with a number of songs from his Under Pressure album, as well as a collection of his mixtape tracks for his day-one fans. Check out our photos below, as The Early Registration was there to catch some of the best moments from last night.
Everyone loves a smart rapper, whether it shows through the quality of their lyrics or the way they promote their brand and music, intelligence in the rap game is very valuable. In a new video, fans now know just how smart and “logical” that rapper Logic actually is, as he solves a Rubik’s cube in under a minute. Not only does he solve the Rubik’s cube super fast, he does it in the middle of rehearsing for his upcoming world tour. Impressive to say the least.
The Under Pressure Tour kicks off in just over a week in Indiana and makes it way throughout the U.S., Canada and Eurpore. Fans can find ticket information and dates on his official website and be sure to check out Logic solving the cube for yourself below.

Power 105.1‘s Charlamagne Tha God, a radio personality who often speaks on racial issues and who recently beefed with Childish Gambino about viewing ‘white’ as correlation to success, may be bleaching his skin?
24 year old rapper Logic is a dictionary perfect definition of a talented rapper. Compare him to other seasoned big name lyrical rappers such as Eminem, Kendrick Lamar, Common, and J. Cole, and he would fit right in. I could imagine him easily going on a tour with them and even appealing to those rappers’ fans. From first listen, he also sounds great. Logic obviously has the kicks to hang out with the pros; he has solid lyrics, can switch up his flows, and can play “look at me I’m cool” by rapping fast. Furthermore, it only helps that he came from a similarly troubled background, which helps cement his authenticity.
