Power 105.1 recently held their annual Powerhouse concert at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn. Future performed at the end of the show, and it seems that after Future’s set many had had enough of the concert after he left the stage. Apparently a lot of people left the concert before seeing the last performer, Kendrick Lamar perform. Allegedly this caused K. Dot to have to perform to a half empty arena. Maybe people left because Kendrick performed after midnight, and most have to go to work the next day. Apparently this same thing happened at a Chicago show also. The question is: were people leaving before Kendrick hit the stage because he performed so late, or is trap music truly more popular than music with a message?
