AllHipHop coming to you live from Denver at the DNC. We won't waste any more time with Michelle Obama as we're sure you've peeped her speech everywhere. But like many conventions, after the show it's the afterparty and Rock The Vote was more than happy to oblige.
N.E.R.D. were co-headliners at the event with Fallout Boy and they rocked the crowd with their massive hit "Everybody Nose", and N.E.R.D. standards "Lapdance" and "She Wants To Move." To be honest, there hasn't been many hotties here at the convention, but every one of them must have been sent an alert because all 20 of them joined Pharell on the stage for their finale. Shout out to one lil homie who managed to sneak in both the show AND the afterparty...although his lady "friend" kept hopping on stage while he was outside. Bag up lil homie!
Mechanically, Pharell is getting good at performing and even though there were a ton of older Democrats in the building with the "WTF" look on their faces, they got into the show and Pharell and crew actually tore it down.

Fallout Boy was brought on to close the show. Although they came with tremendous energy, honestly they got "out rocked" by N.E.R.D. and their set was a bit anti-climactic. They did get busy with "Thanks For the Memories," and "This Ain't a Scene, It's an Arms Race" from their last album. The highlight of their set however was a cover of Michael Jackson's "Beat It" which they beefed up with a heavier guitar.
After milling around for a while we went outside and caught a glimpse of that Obamania. What you gonna do, when the Black Candidate runs wild on you? Sell bootleg Obama t shirts. These cats in Denver would make 125th Street proud. Obama buttons, Obama T-shirts (3 for $20), Obama hats. They had everything but Obama condoms (there WAS a shady vendor behind one of the buses AHEM). I don't know about his tax plan but with all those t-shirts he's already bosting the economy.
The AFTERafter party was hosted by Nick Cannon who quite frankly did his thing. He banged out the somewhat older crowd with soul and disco joints from the late 70's early 80's but he really hurt them with an 80s rock set with hits from Journey, Bon Jovi, Guns n Roses, among others. Oh yeah free food and open bar. America is great.
After collecting swag bags we bumped into Murs, who is also running for president. Of what you ask? You be the judge:
Nick Cannon also weighed in on why he Rocks The Vote
