Tiakola at Irving Plaza

Any hip-hop star with something worth saying is always going to be welcome at the Irving Plaza. Tiakola, if he doesn't know it already, is going to realize that he's got a massive fan base in NYC. That is just because of the multicultural nature of the city. We've got people from all walks of life here, including those who are still very connected to their African roots. All of this doesn't mean, though, that you'll only enjoy the show if you're already a fan of Tiakola or if you know French. The beats that Tiakola brings along with his music are universal. Although he's part of the hip-hop genre to a certain extent, he incorporates a lot of techno beats.

The show may shift more toward that clubby techno vibe. That's going to allow Tiakola to have a wider appeal with the English-speaking audience. If you're in the crowd at the Irving Plaza on this night, it may be a moment for you to just vibe to the music. Those who paid attention in French class in high school may have a leg up with some of the lyrics. Truly, what has allowed Tiakola to develop such a large following is, in fact, that his beats are universal. It might feel like a night at the club, but you went on the day they're playing music with some French lyrics. The vibe is still going to be excellent, from doors to the last song.

As is customary at the Irving Plaza the best place to be on this night might be the floor area next to the stage. The only problem with this option is that if you can't get here on that Monday, February 24th, you may end up toward the back of the section. In that case, it may make a lot more sense to find a spot in The Loft or the High Rise area toward the back. From those elevated positions, you'll have a better view of the stage.
