Born in 1988 in the West Side of Detroit, Michigan, Big Sean, born Sean Michael Leonard Anderson, spent his years working on his rapping whilst at the same time building an important relationship with local rap station WHTD.
When in 2005 Sean heard Kanye was going to be interviewed at the station, he rushed over hoping to meet one of his heroes. After Kanye reluctantly heard Sean freestyling, he was impressed enough to take a demo. This was the beginning of an important future friendship for Sean and two years later he signed to Kanye’s GOOD Music label.
He soon released his first mixtapes ‘Finally Famous: The Mixtape’ in 2007 and two years later ‘UKNOWBIGSEAN’, both of which began to build his profile with the help of hit singles like ‘Get’Cha Some’.
His debut album ‘Finally Famous’ came out in June 2011 and was a huge success spawning singles like ‘My Last’ and making its way to number 3 on the Billboard 200.
Sean continued to ride the success of this album when he began work on his next project, a collaboration between GOOD Music artists that would eventually become ‘Cruel Summer’. Released in 2012 this was another home-run success birthing the Billboard Award winning single ‘Mercy’.
In 2013 Big Sean released his second solo album ‘Hall of Fame’ and when it reached number one in the R&B and Hip Hop albums there was no denying that Sean really was Finally Famous.

Big Sean's concerts are a lot like his music: heavy on the beats and the bass, a little irreverent, and jocular. You never know what he'll pull out of his sleeve. During smash hit "High," he stumbles on stage as though intoxicated. When the time comes to perform hit "Clique," he'll bring other GOOD Music members onstage to rap their parts live. And don't be surprised if he sheds a tear during his more emotional tracks, like the aptly-named "Memories."
Fan appreciation if a major part of Big Sean's shows. He focuses on keeping the crowd engaged, whether it's dancing or rapping along (or both!). To connect, he might jump into the crowd for a little surfing, or clasp hands with as many audience members as possible. And that high-energy attitude extends to his performances, too--he makes a point to rap over instrumentals, eschewing backing vocals.
His attitude is always tempered by humor; the bragging is never offensive. He jokes with the crowd to warm them up at the beginning. He'll pull off his shirt to prove he has no tattoos--his mother doesn't approve of them. And he thanks her for everything she has taught him in between songs. The humor, the emotions, and the booty-shaking music make his concerts feel like one big party, one you'll want to go to again.
Big Sean, now a notorious name on the US R & B circuit is an unpredictable and exciting live performer who has serious talent to match his impressive discography. He has worked with some of the most celebrated names in the industry so his choices when choosing tracks to perform is almost endless.
He sticks to the safe bets of 'Mercy' and 'Higher' which the audience cheer for and attempt to sing/rap at the speed of the man himself. He covers tracks by some of his favourite contemporaries including J. Cole and Drake, and having shared stages with most of them you can never rule out a guest appearance.
On this evening the duet was with none other than Kanye West who performed his own track 'Gold Digger' with Big Sean as well as their smash collaboration 'Clique'. The audience could hardly control their excitement at this all star pairing as they cheered and screamed at maximum volume as Sean confidently baits them for more. A man with true stage presence and great connections is without a doubt going to put on a show that will have people talking for days after.

The opening act was not very good and did a bad job at pumping the crowd up. We waited about an hour before his friends finally came out to introduce him but then it took another solid half hour for him to even come out. Still all of the time was worth it because the buildup was amazing and when he came out everyone went crazy. Long story short I passed out from dehydration and I would still see him again

Big Sean shut the JOE down that night. The floor was shaking and the energy in the crowd was literally explainable. The concert was worth way more than the price I payed. I fell even more in love with Big Sean and his music after the concert had ended. He's a real artist who gives back to the community he comes from.

Big Sean was amazing, his energy never dropped. Even when he was singing the slow songs, you could really feel how hyped the crowd was. He brought made in Tokyo out on stage and then preformed together. It was made in tokyo's birthday so we all sang Happy birthday! He played the new album and the old singles.

The Fillmore is small and gets crowded easy. But, having been first row, I found the show very enjoyable. Great performance, great theatrics, great lighting, great track list. The only problem really did lie in the crowd's behavior. As an avid fan, this show was well worth it.

Big Sean was dope in his set at the concert. I was impressed that he did his set without dancers or a hype man. He took no breaks and remained energetic. He gave the crowd his energy, and the crowd gave it right back. Its the kind of show I like. Props to Big Sean.

He was beyond amazing !! We had a great time watching his performance despite that he made the crowd go crazy, I encourage anyone who's debating, shouldn't because watching him live is way better than listening to his music. Spectacular

Great show. He was with J. Cole on the forest hill dr. tour. Everyone did a great performance and Big Sean did his thing on stage. I had a good time and can't wait to see them again.
