Yes, this really happened. Big Sean got all down and dirty this past weekend in front of a sellout crowd at Emo’s East, locking in a blistering performance that had him tearing up the stage from corner to corner. “How many people here like G.O.O.D. music!” he would occasionally blurt out, eliciting roaring cheers from the crowd which only seemed to fuel his nonstop pace. After almost stripping down to the bare minimum and snapping plenty of photos of the audience, Big Sean definitely made the most of his first headlining performance in Austin. Check out more photos from the show below and keep an eye out for more exclusive live videos, maybe even some webisodes in the near future here on the Emo’s blog.
