Concert Review: Beau Young Prince Is Crowned At Baby’s All Right
Beau Young Prince or BYP feels like a one-man Migos combined with Sebastian Mikael and Swae Lee. He is finessed chaos; artfully placing together the beauty of getting lit. Similar to Velvet Negroni, he is on the rise for his ability to add a splash of abstraction to his Hip Hop sounds. Though the two may not sound alike, BYP hails from a drove of “ones to watch” artists that will scour every genre to redefine the heartbeat of music: relationships.
The crowd was hyped for Beau Young Prince when tracks such as, “Let Go,” “Kill Moe,” and “Price” promoted a sense of bond. Whether it be in lightness or darkness, humanity is a tribal species: we unite like “Dancing Diamonds.” Yet, even those sparkling jewels come from the darkest coal. In this, I like BYP. He goes from deludedly fun to lucidly philosophical, which is why the Baby’s All Right crowd ate him up. He completely represented BK’s “groove,” and the twenty-somethings’ inner strife of feeling soulfully at their brightest while being socially crushed.
New York can often feel like a bubble because, in its every corner, minus Wall Street, is an artist. It brims with talent even from its most ignored or diminished communities. In this way, BYP moved the crowd by feeling like their equal in song and speech. I, honestly, think you never want to have more fun, but feel so unworthy of it, then when you are twenty-something. The crushing of “reality” makes fun come in bursts of escapism that totally feeds “get lit” culture, while also amplifying topics like mental health awareness, prejudice, and pure isolation. All these topics, were approached by BYP and titular smooth stylings.
Vocally, Beau Young Prince spreads his raps like butter on bread. He floats on that stage, which only encourages the audience to get higher to his music. People were bopping and bouncing like they, themselves, were the rhythm, and felt satisfied by someone that could encourage them to heal their heart, bust up an enemy, and get down with friends: three things we all will do in life.
