Cordae just stepped up to the NPR Tiny Desk stage, and this one hit different.
The Maryland rapper, reppin’ the whole DMV, performed right in his own backyard, and you could feel the hometown energy. He wasn’t shy about it either, shouting out his roots during the set: “This is a hometown show for me, so I’m expecting a biased amount of love from y’all!” And, of course, the crowd showed out, giving him that extra boost. The setlist was straight fire, showcasing Cordae’s growth as an artist while keeping it real with his fans.
He performed tracks like “Saturday Mornings,” “06 Dreamin’,” “C Carter,” “Have Mercy,” “Nothing’s Promised,” and “RNP,” giving us a mix of deep, thoughtful bars and high-energy bangers. Each song had the crowd vibing, and you could tell Cordae was feeding off that hometown love. Performing at NPR’s Tiny Desk is already a big moment for any artist, but for Cordae, it was something special.
You could see how much it meant to him to bring his talent to his hometown crowd. The energy was unmatched, and it was a full-circle moment for the rapper showing that no matter how far he goes, he’s always gonna rep where he’s from. The DMV was definitely in the building, and Cordae made sure the world knew it.
