His set was the first of the day, and online viewers of the festival noticed only a few people at his performance. The audience count was 13 people, as observed by viewers who shared it on social media, praising him for still delivering a fantastic show. In an interview, he reflected on the performance, "I don't really see a difference in performing for 13 people or 1,300 people." At his next Rolling Loud performance, everyone showed up for him. He had a massive crowd that showed him the love and energy he deserved. He recently joined well-known rapper "Lucki" on tour as his warm-up, still making a name for himself and promoting his tour.

Now that we have some background, let's talk about his incredible performance. He was rapping all the lyrics to the front row, and even from the back, where I was standing, I felt as much attention as a fan in the front would. He exhibited high energy at times, hyping up the crowd while also skillfully bringing the mood down and delivering melodic moments. Being on the smaller side, the venue significantly contributed to his performance. Due to the intimacy of the venue, he had engaging interactions with his fans. He autographed a Louis Vuitton bag for an audience member in the first two songs. Towards the end of his performance, he invited a fan on stage and performed a song with him. Eem showcased all his major songs, including "Walked In," his entire new album "Still Pretty," new hit singles like "Just Friends?," and concluded the concert with his biggest hit, "Awkward Freestyle." With his impressive stage presence and melodic vocals, Eem Triplin has undoubtedly left a lasting impression on the rap scene. However, we will certainly hear more about him and his tour, as this is just the beginning for him.
