Live Review: Lethal Bizzle At Stealth
================================================================================

Truthfully I expected more from Lethal B's performance at Stealth in Nottingham.
Entering a sweltering hot club and waiting for the performance to begin, I can
for the first time say the wait was not worth it.
Previously seeing Lethal B at the NTU Union Glo Bar for the UK Takeover I
admired his manner with the crowd and ability to keep up the pace but that was
when he performed nothing but 3 songs. On his own tour however he falls slightly
short. He oozes potential and maybe it was the technical difficulties which held
him back, which he didn’t handle too well. By the third time he got quite
pissed off about the ‘embarrassment’ he was suffering but still didn’t
think to spit a freestyle or two while he was waiting for the difficulties to be
smoothed over.
He is truly at his best when performing sing a long tracks such as the More
Fire Crew song ‘Oi’ (he brought along Ozzie B for the ride too) and Forward
Riddim, though his collaborations with indie bands are good they were crying out
for a live band.
Maybe it just wasn’t a good night for him, maybe the club’s atmosphere was
just a bit too ‘children pissing about in the playground’ for me, maybe it
was because I wasn’t drunk. Whatever it was, something was missing, he can do
and has done so much better. That being said, everybody else ate it up but then
again the crowd was made up of over-excited teens.
