Childish Gambino shocked the Brooklyn crowd during his New World Tour with an unexpected appearance by Shaboozey.
On Sunday, August 25, the Barclays Center audience was in for a treat when Gambino brought Shaboozey on stage. Together, they performed a remix of Gambino’s new track ‘Dadvocate’ from the Bando Stone & The New World album. It was the first live performance of the track, making the night even more special.
The excitement didn’t stop there. Shaboozey also got the chance to perform his chart-topping hit ‘Bar Song,’ which has held the number one spot on the Billboard Hot 100 for seven weeks. The crowd couldn’t contain their excitement, and social media buzzed with clips from the unforgettable night.
Earlier this month, Gambino had teased about the innovative technology used in his tour, which he expects other artists to adopt. He introduced the ‘light-binder’ on Instagram, a floating stage tech inspired by concert visuals from anime he watched as a kid. He expressed his pride in it and invited anyone interested to reach out for more information.
Gambino had boasted that his New World Tour would leave fans in awe. He said in an interview with Zane Lowe that if the live show wasn’t the best his fans had seen, they’d get their money back. He emphasized that the live experience is what makes the whole album valuable, aiming to create a massive arena rock vibe for his audience.
The tour, announced in May following the release of his album Atavista, has already garnered significant attention and praise. With innovative technology and surprise guest appearances like Shaboozey, it’s clear that Gambino is pushing the boundaries of live performances.
Childish Gambino’s Brooklyn show was a testament to his boundary-pushing creativity and commitment to giving fans an unforgettable experience.
