Idols in Concert – 02/16/2017

Earlier this month, Fantasia was in Norfolk, Virginia opening for fellow R&B artist Charlie Wilson. Late last year, Chris Daughtry gave an acoustic concert in Huntington, New York featuring two other members of the band Daughtry. The concert was a sell-out.

In other news, Billboard reports that Prince’s streaming numbers are up 6,323% to 4.77M streams in the first two days his catalogue became widely available on streaming services. The two days prior to that, Prince’s catalogued had been streamed 74K times on Tidal. Tidal is going to have to make a better case for itself – although the tribute from Bruno Mars and The Time at the Grammys also probably did its part to encourage streams.
