He began his set with smash hit “Chains” and immediately got the crowd dancing; but that was just the beginning. For the next hour, Nick flexed his vocal skills, sexy dance moves, witty humor and mainstream appeal during his Drai’s LIVE concert. He had fans singing along to numerous original songs from his debut eponymous album while keeping the set list fresh with a few covers as well including OMI’s “Cheerleader” and Rihanna’s “Bitch Better Have My Money,” the latter of which Nick sang while walking throughout the club hugging fans and taking photos. During a couple moments throughout the concert, Nick even snagged cell phones from nearby fans to take quick selfies from the stage.
