The diverse crowd of both teenagers and adults, showed how much of a range in fans Tecca has, reflecting on the NY rappers impact on the people of Boston.
When Lil Tecca finally hit the stage, the energy in the venue shifted.

Tecca’s production was high, and included colorful lighting that matched the mood to both his fast and slower songs. The highlight of the night was his performance of “Ransom”, the multi-platinum hit that showed the world who Tecca was. As the iconic beat dropped, the crowd erupted shouting every lyric alongside him.
The show started off with multiple opening acts, from growing rap stars like Chow Lee, who hyped up the crowd and set the bar high for the rest of the night. Tana followed Chow Lee, keeping the momentum going and the audience engaged, performing hit after hit, including the hit song “Antisocial”. Massachusetts rapper Rich Amiri was up next.

Finally, SoFaygo (newly signed to hitmaker “Travis Scott”’s label “Cactus Jack”) hit the stage, finishing the opening acts strong with his hit “Knock Knock”.
