Wale at Irving Plaza

Wale is one of those rappers who's not afraid to sing about real love. One of his best tracks includes an intro by Jerry Seinfeld, and it features Usher singing about "Matrimony," which is literally the name of the song. It's one of the oddest collaborations for a rap artist, perhaps all-time. However, it does help tell the story of Wale and what you can expect to see at the Irving Plaza on Saturday, October 5th. It's very much a rap show; there's no doubt about that. There's just going to be a lot more funk and soul in these tracks than what you get from most rappers who step out onto this stage.

You know what this means, right? The crowd that's coming out to the Plaza on this first Saturday in October is going to be a lot more chill than what you usually get out here. Wale is one of those performers who couples love. There aren't too many true hip-hop artists out there that you'll come out with your girl to have a romantic night. This makes the "Every Blue Moon" tour a must-see event in a way that maybe other shows just aren't. When Lotus Flower Bomb comes on, everyone in the crowd, without exception, is going to be hanging on Wale's every word. It's an experience that you don't find every weekend, even at the Plaza.

This Wale concert is one of these nights where you want to be very strategic, heading to the Irving Plaza. That's especially the case if you're going as a couple, and you're looking to have a chill experience. As mentioned, Wale won't draw the typical rowdy crowds that many performers who headline shows here do. That's a good thing for people who want to use this Saturday, October 5th concert as a date night. If you're going to be in the standing-room-only area, you know the drill. Get here early to find a place near the stage. It's particularly important for this event. Also, hit the get tickets button right now to make sure there are still passes available to see Wale live!
