AceShowbiz - The wait is finally over. After announcing its lineup last month, Tidal finally hosted its third annual benefit concert entitled "Tidal X: Brooklyn Concert" at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn on October 17. The concert was held to collect funds for victims of Hurricane Harvey, Hurricane Irma, Hurricane Maria and the earthquakes that took place in Mexico over the past couple months. Performers such as Jennifer Lopez, Cardi B and more lent their voices for the concert.
The concert managed to gain $3.4 million before it even started. Some of it has already been donated to organizations such as Andre M. Cuomo's Empire State Relief and Recovery Effort for Puerto Rico.
MC Angie Martinez kicked off the show by telling the crowd, "When we all pull together, we have the power to effect real change. We can and should help each other in times of need. We see you. We hear you. And you matter to us - today, tomorrow and always."
Jennifer sang her hit song "All I Have" at the concert. Wearing an oversized shirt and a cap, the "I'm Into You" singer looked relaxed as she went around the stage while singing the song. Jennifer later changed her outfit during "Feelin' So Good" performance. She wore a skimpy red suit as she danced with her back-up dancers. The singer performed three songs at the concert, including "On the Floor".
Meanwhile, Cardi B hyped up the crowd with a performance of her hit song "Bodak Yellow (Money Moves)" in a sexy red suit. The crowd sang along as she spat her lines, "I don't dance now, I make money moves/ Say I don't gotta dance, I make money moves/ If I see you and I don't speak, that means I don't f**k with you/ I'm a boss, you a worker, b***h, I make bloody moves."
Other than Jennifer and Cardi, the concert also featured the likes of Jay-Z, Stevie Wonder, DJ Khaled, Chris Brown, Fifth Harmony and Iggy Azalea. Rosie Perez, and Lin-Manuel Miranda also made a special appearance during the concert. Beyonce Knowles was also seen at the event. However, instead of performing, she came to support her husband Jay-Z.
