FOR THE CULTURE. BY THE CULTURE.
OF THE CULTURE.
A look at events in NYC including concerts, comedy shows, sporting games, book signings and tours, music and film festivals, Broadway plays, movie screenings with cast Q&As, and so much more!
I'm from Little Rock, AR, and events like these rarely happen there so I'm definitely taking advantage of all the sights and sounds. Beware, I'm here! There are so many awesome experiences New York has to offer! They should give me a key to the city and the coffer! Either way, I'll take it up off ya so baby don't bother! Aye!!!
Here are some of the events I've been fortunate enough to attend, and a few I helped manage! God's Plan! AMEN!

Jennifer D. Laws attends Nas's One Night Only concert for King's Disease Trilogy at Madison Square Garden on February 24, 2023.
For Kings and Queens ONLY!!!! 30 YEARS! THIRTY! I mean it's really been like 31 years, 7 months, and 2 days. You know since Main Source dropped Breaking Atoms and Nas was on "Live at the Barbeque". But who's counting?!
Jennifer D. Laws attends The Commitment March in Washington, D.C. on August 28, 2020.
The first time I heard about the March on Washington was from The Cosby Show. "The March" first aired when I was only 2 years old, and I obviously don't remember it then. It wasn't until I got older and the network aired reruns of the episode that I learned more about the significance of the event - it's where Martin Luther King, Jr. delivered his famous "I Have A Dream" speech on the steps of Lincoln Memorial.
Jennifer D. Laws attends the Harry Belafonte Birthday Celebration at the Apollo Theater on March 1, 2020.
The #BlackHistoryMonth celebrations continued on Sunday when I ventured to Harlem to pay tribute to the activist, the singer, the songwriter, the actor, the icon, the legend, the 93 years young "King of Calypso", Mr. Harry Belafonte!

Jennifer D. Laws attends The Town Hall's Lena Horne Prize for Artists Creating Social Impact Celebrating Solange Knowles at The Town Hall on February 28, 2020.
Last December, I read that Solange would be the first recipient of the Lena Horne Prize, the first major entertainment award to be named after a woman of color. When I learned that it would happen at The Town Hall, say less! First, because this is such an amazing honor for someone so deserving, ***pauses to cue up "Almeda", Hold Up...***
Pour more drank, drank Sip, sip, sip, sip, sip... |
Jennifer D. Laws attends Ladies' Night: Super Jam at Barclays Center on February 15, 2020.

|
Jennifer D. Laws attends Oprah's 2020 Vision: Your Life in Focus tour at Barclays Center in Brooklyn on February 8, 2020.
When Queen Oprah announced her "Oprah's 2020 Vision: Your Life in Focus" national tour last September, I was super excited! Like the rest of the world, I grew up watching The Oprah Winfrey Show. As a kid, I would be glued to the television listening to Oprah drop life gems to her studio audience, interview celebrity guests, and generously give away her favorite things! "You get a car! You get a car! You get a car!" Single-handedly that was, without question, THE COOLEST moment in television history!
I always wanted to see her in person, and now I finally had my chance! |
Tommy Davidson and Jennifer D. Laws at his "Living in Color" book signing at Barnes & Noble Upper West Side on January 28, 2020.
I saw the cast of In Living Color last April at the Tribeca Film Festival for the 25th Anniversary of the premiere episode. It was one of my favorite shows growing up, and I absolutely love The Wayans family! So when I heard that Tommy Davidson wrote a memoir and would be doing a book signing in the city, I was game to check it out.
|
Jennifer D. Laws attends a taping of the Tamron Hall show at ABC Studios on January 14, 2020.

|
Jennifer D. Laws attends Slave Play at Golden Theatre on October 13, 2019.
I feel like I’m living out an episode of Sex and the City with an urban twist. “Lights, Camera, Relationship” was Season 6 Episode 5, the episode when Samantha, who hates theatre, reluctantly dragged herself and her friends to Brooklyn to watch her boyfriend, Smith Jerrod, perform in a bad play where he does a full frontal scene and it winds up getting rave reviews. Well, that’s kinda my experience with Slave Play.
|
Jennifer D. Laws attends Carolines on Broadway to see Damon Wayans Jr. on October 12, 2019.

|
Jennifer D. Laws attends Nas & Mary J. Blige: The Royalty Tour at Barclays Center in Brooklyn on August 28, 2019.
The Royalty Tour...
How befitting! After a whirlwind 35th birthday-vacation trip to Accra, Ghana and a tour of the surrounding areas for The Year of Return and Chale Wote Street Art Festival, it was great to get back to the states to see two of my favorite artists at Barclays Center - Nasty Nas and The Queen of Hip Hop Soul and R&B! |

Jennifer D. Laws attends the Ladies Night Out Comedy Tour at Kings Theatre in Brooklyn on July 13, 2019.
About last night... after a long workweek and a late night surge of creative energy that had me spitting rhymes over instrumentals at 2am in the morning, going to the Ladies Night Out Comedy Tour at Kings Theatre was much needed!
|
Jennifer D. Laws and Elaine Welteroth at her "More Than Enough" book tour stop in Brooklyn on June 11, 2019.
At 32 years young, Elaine has already accomplished what many young, ambitious hopefuls dream about... landing a dream job in their chosen profession in a leadership role. In 2012, she became the Beauty & Health Director at Teen Vogue. In April 2016 when she was just 29, Elaine was named Editor-in-Chief of Teen Vogue, the youngest person to hold an editor position in Condé Nast history, and the second person of African-American ancestry in the famous mass media company's 107 year history.
|
Jennifer D. Laws attends Tyler Perry's Madea's Farewell Play Tour at Radio City Music Hall on May 17, 2019.
When Tyler Perry announced he was retiring the hilarious character he's best known for portraying, Mabel Earlene "Madea" Simmons, I knew I had to see it live. The cast is set to play six sold out shows from the 16th-19th at Radio City, and I was able to snag a center Orchestra ticket for some Friday night fun!
|
Jennifer D. Laws attends the Mother's Day Good Music Festival at Barclays Center on May 10, 2019.
Attending this event was a no-brainer! When I saw the original lineup of Jaheim, Joe, Monica, Ashanti, Avant, and Donell Jones, I said let me hurry up and cop this ticket! I knew the artist lineup was subject to change per Barclays Center's website, but I didn't think it would. Raheem Devaughn replaced Donell Jones, and I was like FUCK, because hey... it's Donell Jones.
|
Jennifer D. Laws attends Kaleta & Super Yamba Band's show at Brooklyn Museum on May 4, 2019.
Kaleta & Super Yamba Band first came on my radar when I attended Luvvie Ajayi and Yvonne Orji: Jesus and Jollof Live at the Apollo Theater last month. They did a set before Luvvie and Yvonne hit the stage. They performed "Mr. Diva", a song with a rift that reminded me of Aretha Franklin's "You’re All I Need To Get By" (at the :20 second mark)... one of my favorite songs by the Queen!
|

|
Jennifer D. Laws outside the Apollo Theater on April 13, 2019.
Do you listen to podcasts? If you do, then you should already be subscribed to Jesus & Jollof! Luvvie Ajayi (New York Times Best Seller of I'm Judging You: The Do-Better Manual) and Yvonne Orji (Molly Carter on Insecure) hilariously discuss all things Nigerian, their lives, their loves, and navigating the "the glow up" in the entertainment industry.
|
Jennifer D. Laws attends the Frida Kahlo exhibit at the Brooklyn Museum on February 15, 2019.
After a long week, an interesting Valentine's Day, and disdainfully watching 45 declare a national emergency to fund a border wall, I decided to start the long holiday weekend off right and unwind with an art exhibit.
|
Jennifer D. Laws and Rick Easley attend "Tongues Untied" at BAM Rose Cinemas in Brooklyn on February 11, 2019.
About last night...

|
Jennifer D. Laws attends the critically acclaimed Broadway play "American Son" on December 22, 2018.
Whew chile!!! I had to fix my face after seeing the brilliant Broadway play American Son! The amazingly talented Kerry Washington (Kendra) was intense and raw and real, and I ran through the gamut of emotions as I sat on the first row, center stage hanging off of every word, every emotion, and every update (or lack thereof) of her missing 18 year old son.
|
Jennifer D. Laws is inside Barclays Center purchasing merchandise at BECOMING: An Intimate Conversation with Michelle Obama on December 19, 2018.
#FOREVERFLOTUS comes to Brooklyn!!!
Words can't describe how excited I was when the news reported that #FOREVERPOTUS AND #FOREVERFLOTUS inked a presidential record breaking book deal topping $60 million in the spring of 2017. I was even more amped when Michelle released a short video earlier this year discussing the title of her forthcoming book, BECOMING, and nationwide book tour dates produced by Live Nation. Due to overwhelming demand, they added a second date to Barclays Center, and Sarah Jessica Parker was slated to moderate. WHATTTT?! |
Jennifer D. Laws at Lincoln Square Theater after seeing If Beale Street Could Talk + cast Q&A on December 15, 2018.
If Beale Street Could Talk is a stirring, revolutionary Black love story set in Harlem in the 1970s based off the book of the same name by the iconic writer James Baldwin. It’s hopelessly romantic, beautifully tragic, and poetically compelling.
|
Jennifer D. Laws is headed to the Beacon Theatre to see the NY Comedy Festival in association with TBS Presents: Tracy Morgan show on November 10, 2018.
What's happenin', chief?
That was my introduction to Tracy Morgan better known at the time as "Hustle Man" on the hit TV show, Martin. "Pick Up the Pieces" will forever be one of the funniest moments he had on the show among many others - fast forward to the 4:22 mark to see him play the kazoo stuck to a saxophone! Yes, Tracy has come a long way. |
Jennifer D. Laws outside of Barclays Center for the Tidal X Brooklyn concert on October 23, 2018.

Now, for all those wondering...yes, Ms. Lauryn Hill showed up and was ON TIME. #LookatGod! |
Jennifer D. Laws at The Garden for Kevin Hart's Irresponsible Tour on September 27, 2018.
Alright! Alright! Alrightttttt!!! You gon' learn today!
So y'all already know I had to go see Kevin Hart do his thang at The Garden. With the recent comments made by Katt Williams about Tiffany Haddish's comedic chops, her refined response, Kevin's come again homie clapback on The Breakfast Club, and Leslie Jones telling both Katt and Kevin's asses, "real talk both of them niggas need to keep my name out they mouth unless they using it to eat my pussy REAL TALK, none of those niggas put me on or any woman", and I ain't going back and forth with you niggas, I'm living my best SNL life weigh in, I just knew I was in for a treat! |
Jennifer D. Laws at Frozen on Broadway on September 16, 2018.
I was so excited when my job said they had extra tickets for a client event they were hosting, and sent out an email for us to request tickets. I've never seen the movie Frozen before, but I've heard "Let It Go" a million plus times!
|
Jennifer D. Laws at The Garden for Childish Gambino's This Is America Tour on September 14, 2018.
It's Official! This is Childish Gambino's farewell tour!
When "The Only Donald We Acknowledge Is Glover" said he would be retiring his Childish Gambino alter ego in June 2017, I knew I had to see him in concert! I've been down with CG since he released his second studio album, Because the Internet. When that "Crawl" beat drop though... |
Hasan Minhaj, DeRay McKesson, and Toure at DeRay’s book signing in Brooklyn on September 5, 2018.
DeRay Mckesson first came on my radar on April 28, 2015. I was glued to the TV watching coverage on CNN of the protesters in Baltimore, MD, and how the media portrayed them as thugs and criminals because some of them broke windows and caused damage to some stores in the area due to their frustration and anger over the death of Freddie Gray at the hands of crooked cops on April 12, 2015.
|
Jennifer D. Laws at the Aubrey & the Three Migos concert in front of Madison Square Garden on August 27, 2018.
When you combine an Atlanta hip hop trio that just tied the Beatles for most simultaneous Hot 100 entries among groups with 14 with a Toronto rapper that just broke the Beatles' 54 year old record for simultaneously charting seven singles in the top ten for one of the summer's hottest tour's of 2018... you get me, a fan who got to go to the concert twice because the first night I went, Monday, August 27th, was wayyyy too LITTTTYYYY!
|
Jennifer D. Laws at Utica train station in Brooklyn headed to AfroPunk on August 26, 2018.

Rozay, what can I say! The Maybach Music founder had an amazing show, even though he left his fans waiting almost two hours for him to perform… on a Monday night.

Jennifer D. Laws at Barclays Center for Jay's 4:44 concert on November 27, 2017.
I was too excited when my sister bought us tickets to see JAY-Z's 4:44 concert as a present for my birthday.

|
Jennifer D. Laws at the Hamilton show on Broadway in New York City on November 9, 2017.
Let me tell y'all about how God WORKS... I've been entering the Hamilton lottery since Summer '16 when I was a contract Event Manager at BNY Mellon - the banking organization that Alexander Hamilton established along with other founding shareholders. I couldn't get tickets through my job, and I kept getting the "Sorry, You're Not A Winner" notification on my iPhone from the HAM app for months.
|

Jennifer D. Laws at the 5th season premiere of "The Americans" on February 25, 2017.
From January through March, I worked at FOX as a contract consultant in the Event Marketing department. From the start, I knew the job would be a short stint so I made the most out of the experience. The highlight was working the 5th season premiere of the TV show “The Americans” on FX starring Keri Russell and Matthew Rhys at the Directors Guild Theater. I’ve followed Keri’s career since she was on All-New Mickey Mouse Club so seeing her in person was nostalgic.

|
Jennifer D. Laws at Barclays Center for Rihanna's ANTI concert on March 27, 2016.
When my boy, De'Andre, hit me on the text saying he had an extra floor ticket to see Rihanna's ANTI concert at Barclays Center on some last minute shit and invited me to come hang out, I was ecstatic!

Jennifer D. Laws turns 30 years old!
AYEEEE... #TURNUP!!!
2014 was a great year for me! It was the end of an era and the beginning of a new one - another revolution around the sun. Goodbye 29... hello 30! I was still on a professional high having worked Super Bowl XLVIII six months earlier at MetLife Stadium, and had just finished working two dates of the On the Run Tour a month before. Couldn't NOBODY tell me SHIT, you hear me...
The On the Run tour hits MetLife Stadium on July 11-12, 2014.
The anticipation. The presence. The production. The logistics. The stage. The lights. The sound. The dancers. The team. The fans. The artists.
Then there was me... I still remember the electricity surging through the stadium. Everyone felt it. We were prepared. I was READY! |
Jennifer D. Laws is OFFICIAL! She's #SuperBowlGoals - Super Bowl XLVIII at MetLife Stadium on February 2, 2014! #SuperBowlSunday
I still remember when the news came out that New Meadowlands Stadium in East Rutherford, NJ won the bid to host Super Bowl XLVIII.
It was May 25, 2010. I found out a day later. I was sitting at the computer desk in the living room at my mom's house reading the article on ESPN. New York/New Jersey beat out Tampa and South Florida. I remember saying to myself..."I'm going to the Super Bowl. That Super Bowl. I don't know how, but I will be there." Little did I know that in three months I would be homeless for the third time in as many years. |
