On October 2nd, I headlined FLOW Open Mic with a 40+ minute set, debuting my first vinyl record for Hope For Sale II while also filming a music video for my mixtape with @intentcinema to capture the night.

This is the final product.

This wasn’t just video shoot for me, it was a milestone. Every opportunity is a chance to build, document the journey, and keep the momentum going. Special thanks to @flowopenmic704 for letting me bless the stage! Thanks to all the artists who came out to show love and support! @barwerappin @deifiied @leonidastheking

FLOW OPEN MIC 10.02.26 w/ @flowopenmic704

First and foremost, THANK YOU! Every stream, share, comment, ticket purchased, and show attended helped bring me to this moment. After three appearances on the FLOW platform, I was given the opportunity to headline, and I made sure to give everything I had. Told you I’m on a run, just went 5/5 right under your nose. Next show is October 17th @ Dupp&Swat!

16 songs, 40+ minutes, no backing vocals, and not a single missed word. The energy in the room was incredible, especially knowing the crowd genuinely appreciates Hip Hop culture, lyricism, and the lane I’ve created for myself. To have people connect with my older material, current work, and unreleased music is a reminder that authenticity still resonates. This is bigger than a performance; it’s years of consistency finally being witnessed in real time.

One of the most meaningful moments was debuting my first vinyl record for HOPE FOR SALE II and giving a signed copy to my Dad, the reason I started doing this. To share that moment with everyone in attendance made the night unforgettable. Charlotte is full of talent, and I’m grateful for every artist, supporter, and music lover who continues to show up and contribute to this culture. Major shoutout to @fllsgood for DJing my set, @d.m.z_forever for performing “Global” with me, and @jasline_impressions for capturing everything. To everyone who has supported Bars NC throughout this journey, this moment belongs to you too. 16 years in the making. We’re building something timeless.

One thing we love about BeatFreaQ is that it’s about more than just the music.

At the end of every featured set, we ask each artist to leave the audience with one piece of advice they can carry with them. Leonidas kept it real:

“It’s only temporary.”

Whether you’re chasing your dreams, pushing through hard times, or just trying to make it to the next day, remember that every season has an ending. Trouble doesn’t last always.

Leonidas kicked off the evening with an incredible set that immediately set the tone for the rest of the event. His creativity, confidence, and stage presence had the room locked in from the very first beat. (He’ll always be our favorite Tyler Perry villain. 😂)

Be sure to follow Leonidas on all of his social platforms and support everything he’s creating.

Join us for the next BeatFreaQ on August 1st. We’ve got another amazing lineup, more unforgettable performances, and more gems from artists with something meaningful to share.

BeatFreaQ isn’t just for musicians—it’s for anyone who loves music, fellowship, and community.

We’ll see you August 1st.

What’s your favorite sandwich? 🥪

Because it’s almost time to eat.

The menu is loaded with beats, bars, community, and good people doing great things. Whether you’re a longtime regular or pulling up for your first plate, we’ve got something cooking for you.

Charlotte — 6/11
Greensboro — 6/18

Get your neck braces ready for the head nods and your voice spoons ready for the conversations. There are a few surprises on the menu at both stops, and you won’t want to hear about them secondhand.

Come hungry.
