At the intersection of Broadway and 44th Street, in One Astor Plaza, is the indoor live events facility known as Palladium Times Square (previously PlayStation Theater, Best Buy Theater, and Nokia Theatre Times Square)[1].
The architecture, which was designed by David Rockwell, made its debut in September 2005. The theater has both a huge orchestra section with standing room only and a sizable place for spectators to sit near the back of the auditorium.
The building was originally built as the Loews Astor Plaza Theatre, a movie theater operated by Loews Theatres that opened in 1974 and closed its doors in August 2004.
The Anschutz Entertainment Group (AEG) leased the space, which it later converted into a live events arena at an estimated cost of $21 million.
With a capacity of 2,100, the Palladium was packed with devoted spectators who were given to a night to remember. Sensational music infused the air, generating an environment bursting with excitement and vigor.
Expectations were high for Black Sherif's performance as the current VGMA Artiste of the Year, and he did not dissapoint.
He entered the stage to a stunned audience and gave a dynamic performance that had everyone spellbound.
Every song he performed had the audience singing and dancing to his original fusion of afrobeat, highlife, and hip-hop. The audience was completely engrossed in the music and responded to hits like "Money," "First Sermon," "Second Sermon," and "Villian I Never Was."
The "Konongo Crooner" expressed his sincere gratitude to supporters in the diaspora on social media after the event for the outpouring of support.
"I'm grateful, New York City. I adore you." I'll be back again," he promised, sharing a video clip from the event, which both reviewers and attendees hailed as a true celebration of music and culture.
One of the most intriguing and talented performers in the business, he made his debut in New York City, which further cemented his standing.
The fact that Black Sherif knew he had touched people's hearts and left a lasting influence on the New York City music scene is fairly obvious. He clearly felt proud of himself as he departed the stage.
Black Sherif's New York City premiere was a night of pure magic for those who were fortunate enough to attend. The atmosphere in the room—which was characterized by its excitement, music, and love—made for a memorable occasion.
