On Tuesday night, Earl Sweatshirt and MIKE hit Glasgow’s O2 Academy as part of their joint Home On The Range tour.
The night started rough with an opening DJ set from HARRISON (Surf Gang) that tested the crowd’s patience. Looping the same beats for over ten minutes with zero mic work, the repetitive performance drew visible frustration and several rounds of boos.
The energy flipped the moment the co-headliners stepped out. Earl Sweatshirt and MIKE shared the stage all night, trading verses back-to-back and hyping each other up with seamless chemistry. With MIKE getting the entire venue jumping and waving hands, the duo quickly wiped away the rocky start, leaving the O2 Academy electric.
