Hot 103 Jamz’ second annual Summer Jam was a fitting heir to last year’s successful inaugural show. Featuring newer artists, Block Life, a rising homegrown duo, in addition to established stars Rick Ross and Soulja Boy, Summer Jam II brought a first class show to Capitol Federal Park @ Sandstone on Saturday, June 13.
Speaking of stars and homegrown artists, the day’s festivities officially began with just such a rapper, Kansas City’s own, Tech N9ne. Select members of Tech N9ne’s fan club received special access into the venue at 3:00pm, for an opportunity to meet the star himself. This incredible opportunity was followed by the opening of the VIP club at 4:00pm. Fans with a VIP Experience pass gained early access to the venue, in addition to drink specials and private restrooms. Regular doors opened at 4:30, and the stage was set for a great evening of music.
The show kicked off to a great start thanks to Murs, a talented rapper who has toured with Tech N9ne. Murs pumped the crowed, and the excitement only continued to grow throughout the evening. A star-studded line up followed the opening performance. Black Walt took the stage next and was succeeded by Block Life, Plies, Dorrough, and Yung L.A consecutively.
An already great evening only became better when Rick Ross took the stage. He was followed by the KC King, Tech N9ne. Throughout the course of his one hour set, Tech N9ne demonstrated why he is the best selling independent rapper in the world. His performance, which, in addition to great songs, included outstanding choreography and an awesome light show; it was truly first rate. Though Tech N9ne set the bar very high indeed, he was followed by a worthy successor, Hurricane Chris. After Hurricane’s upbeat set, it was time for the evening’s headliner, Soulja Boy. Throughout his hour set, Soulja Boy wowed the crowed, providing a great ending to great day.
As always the cleaning crew and recycling team were working hard behind the scenes to maintain the venue and implement Cap Fed Park’s green initiatives. They did excellent job seeing everyone had a great time at Summer Jam II, including Mother Nature.
To conclude, Summer Jam II brought a great day of music to Capitol Federal Park @ Sandstone. If next year’s Summer Jam is anything like this one (which I certainly believe it will be) it will truly be a can’t miss event.
