The Anniversary Show New York Performances

“The Anniversary Show” at Irving Plaza centers on 6LACK, the Baltimore-born, Atlanta-raised singer, songwriter, and rapper who first broke through with “PRBLMS” and later earned Grammy attention for *Free 6lack*. Framed as an anniversary set, it revisits the material that helped define a strain of late-2010s R&B built on confession, restraint, and low-lit mood. There’s no specific New York premiere history attached to this run, but the booking fits the city’s long role as a proving ground for touring R&B and rap acts. One critical note: his live approach tends to prize control and atmosphere over spectacle, which gives the songs room to land.
