Lushlife delivered an energetic and immensely convivial performance at Johnny Brenda’s on April 17th in support of his new LP, Plateau Vision, now out on Western Vinyl records. Exercising his ability to energize crowds while concurrently operating lyrical talents, sample selection and electric drums, Lush continued to prove why he is Philly’s pre-eminent cloud-rapper.
With a very positive review by Pitchfork, and numerous glowing articles in print and digital media alike, there was much hype surrounding the set. Lush brought the goods. Digging into tracks off his new album, mixtape, and his first album (Order of Operations), he played songs we had not had the enjoyment of hearing live before. These tracks were topped off with covers of both classic Jay-Z and Nas which were excellently reconstructed.
Lushlife’s live performances are never to be missed – and we never do when he plays at home in Philly. You shouldn’t either. Watch out as Lush continues to blaze new trails and carve out musical originality in his own vein. We have every confidence that Plateau Vision will be a jumping off point for greater and greater success in the future. Watching his energy live and hearing that raw energy translate onto wax is a thing of magic. Go out and purchase the album and check out some of our video below:
