When Goldlink came out, the crowd lit up in one of the darker backdrops for a show I have seen at the Granada. There was a heaping amount of blue lights with what appeared to be a grassy backdrop.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-62708 alignleft\" src=\"http:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/goldlink-22-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/goldlink-22-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/goldlink-22-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/goldlink-22-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/goldlink-22-360x240.jpg 360w, https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/goldlink-22.jpg 1400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/> Easily, the highlight of the night was when the crowd begged for Goldlink to play his hit track \u201cCrew\u201d a second time, directly after energizing to the maximum on his first play through. Goldlink didn\u2019t pause for a moment to do any slow-jams. Instead he danced and jumped around the stage, showed the crowd his love by giving lengthy handshakes, while the crowd roared. Although there was no encore, the energy could\u2019ve been there as there seemed to be no inch of disappointment in the building after the show was done.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last night, Goldlink, and opening-act affiliate Mas\u00e9go shook a mid-sized crowd at the Granada with a blend of house music, trap\/drill, and jazz.
