THE F.O.R.C.E Tour Live | November 19th 2023 at TD Garden, Boston.
This show was insane. I’m not much of an LL Cool J guy, but he puts on a good show, and the rest of the acts were incredible. Some of them were Slick Rick, Monie Love, Queen Latifah, Doug E. Fresh, Questlove & The Roots, DMC, Z-Trip, and some other ones too. It was extremely energetic and eclectic, and the entire crowd was loving it.
I have a single complaint. They had a huge list of the greatest/most influential rappers at the concert, and somehow MF DOOM wasn’t on it. There were some more obscure, and younger rappers on the list, so I really don’t know how DOOM was skipped. Very small complaint.
