9th March 2012
It was not even midnight when I arrived at the venue, and
already the club was filling up with guests who all were ready to party. All
seats taken at the VIP lounge, and standing room is getting full to
overflowing. I see new faces and I know in an instant they’re here to see
Atlanta’s golden boy.
Even the #1 celebrity magazine Ahlan! and UAE’s premier lifestyle read Time Out Abu Dhabi sent
their official lens man to cover what turned out to be one of the most awesome
events hosted by Abu Dhabi’s Favourite Night Club. Cheers to Rajesh, Ahlan/Timeout official photographer for the awesome snaps that night!

DJ Emtee’s mix and mash-ups eased the crowd into the night,
as everyone waited for the RnB star LLOYD. It was a smashing night once again
as another étoiles Urban Night unfolded. And when the young soul sensation
finally came out of nowhere (really—I mean…no one saw him until he stepped up
that mini stage!), ladies closed in and swooned and swayed and sang along to
the sweet seduction that was Lloyd.
He was right in front of me. And he rocked my heart as he
rocked the house, indeed. He strutted his thang and he serenaded every lady
present that night, and maybe made a lot of gentlemen jealous and envious of
the full attention he got. He reminded me of a young Michael Jackson and Usher.
I heard him call himself a “rebellious romantic,” dubbing his fourth album
“King of Hearts”—and these he truly is, and more.
Ahh. You have had to be there to feel his soul. He has charm
and style and swagger and it was just so easy to fall for him only after a few
notes. Overall there was such a great vibe in the club that night. Even after
he made his exit, people stayed on the dance floor and partied on.
T’was unbelievably unforgettable.:) One of the best nights
so far in Abu Dhabi.
And looking forward for more.
