Las Vegas residencies aren’t just for pop stars and rock legends. R&B and hip hop have some serious heavyweights who would light up the Strip. Here are some artists we’d love to see get their own Vegas residencies:
Missy Elliott
Missy is a game-changer with her iconic beats and mind-blowing visuals. Her residency would be a high-energy party every night, filled with hits like “Work It” and “Get Ur Freak On.”
Mary J. Blige
The Queen of Hip Hop Soul would bring a mix of powerful ballads. Imagine vibing to “Family Affair” and feeling the soul in “No More Drama.”
OutKast
A Vegas residency by OutKast would be a funky, eclectic experience. With André 3000 and Big Boi’s dynamic performances, hits like “Hey Ya!” and “Ms. Jackson” would have everyone out of their seats.
Alicia Keys
Her soulful voice and piano mastery would create an intimate yet powerful show. Picture singing along to “Fallin’” and “Empire State of Mind” in the heart of Vegas.
LL Cool J
The original hip-hop heartthrob would bring his classic hits and smooth rhymes to the stage. “Mama Said Knock You Out” and “Doin’ It” would get the older crowd hyped every night.
Lauryn Hill
Her blend of hip-hop and soul, combined with her raw talent, would make for a captivating residency. Her timeless album “The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill” performed live? Yes, please.
Drake
Drake’s catalog of hits spans everything from hip hop bangers to emotional anthems. His performances and chart-toppers like “God’s Plan” and “Jumbotron Shit Poppin” would make for an epic residency.
These artists have the talent, the hits, and the stage presence to turn Vegas residencies into must-see events. Who would you love to see headline in Sin City?
