Big Boss Noff brings '90s vibe to PNB Rock concert at Asbury Lanes

Any ’90s babies in the house?

There will be at the PNB Rock show Friday, May 20, at Asbury Lanes in Asbury Park. Big Boss Noff of Eatontown is opening, and he's feeling a ’90s vibe with his new drop, “The Rain (Supa Dupa Fly),” inspired by the classic 1997 Missy Elliott track.

“I was born in the ’90s,” Noff said. “I was born in ’92 so that music is my time, and I'm watching what's going on. Everybody's hopping on the ’90s samples, so if they're going to do that I'm going to get in on it. That's my era — that's my time.”

Noff, aka James McKnight, spits fire on the new track over the Elliott “Rain” chorus.

“That's like super ’90s hip-hop Missy Elliott nostalgic,” Noff said. “I'm not a drill rapper. I don't do what would necessarily be considered in right now. But I'm still going to go with my heavy bass, my trap sound, but I'm going to throw a little ’90s, a little flair on there.”

PNB Rock is a ’90s baby, too. The Philly native is best known for his hits “Fleek” and “Selfish.”

“I'm excited to be back outside, I'm excited to be around people,” said Noff, who released the track “Pandemic” last April. “It seems like everyone is rejuvenated. Everyone knows exactly where they want to be and that's kind of good place to be. Before, people were a little lost. I don't see that anywhere. It's going to be great to see my fans and put on a great show. I'm ready to have a great weekend.”

Update: This show has been postponed to June 18. Tickets will be honored on that day.

PNB Rock and Big Boss Noff, 8 p.m. Friday, May 20 (postponed to June 18), Asbury Lanes, 209 4th Ave., Asbury Park. $30 to $50. www.asburylanes.com.

'Desnuda' with Ricardo Arjona

Apparently, clothes are optional at Ricardo Arjona concerts.   

A fan approached the stage at a recent Arjona show in Dallas and stripped down to her undies while the Guatemalan singer-songwriter performed his song “'Desnuda,” which translates to “nude.”

Fans in the audience started filming away and the whole thing went viral in the Latin music world. Arjona helped things along when he tweeted out the Despierta America Instagram coverage.

 “Things that happen in #BlancoyNegroTour,” he said.
