The Los Angeles (LA) concert, which opened the tour, marked a strong start to the North American leg as it drew the largest audience of this North American tour. JAY B captured attention from the opening with 'go UP' and 'FAME', tracks that incorporate his roots in breaking dance sensibilities.

At the Tacoma concert as well, local fans became deeply immersed in the stage as the songs progressed. Without exception, audience members rose from their seats to enjoy the new track 'Layback' with their whole bodies, and they supported him with sing-alongs through the encore stage, completing an explosive energy.

The New York concert, which embodied the grandeur of a major metropolis, was truly a highlight that exploded the on-site heat. Following emotional stages such as 'Whiskey' and 'Velvet Trigger', passionate performances of 'Switch It Up' and 'Head To Toe' were presented, filling the venue with fan cheers so immense they drowned out the microphone sound. JAY B responded by delivering an overwhelming energy stage from start to finish, captivating the audience. The heat continued at the Dallas concert, where JAY B instantly captivated local audiences with R&B performances amidst the passionate reactions characteristic of fans in the American South.

In particular, his interview with the world-renowned media outlet Forbes received significant local attention. Forbes focused not only on JAY B's musical journey accumulated over 15 years but also on his proactive steps as the creative leader of label 528Hz, directly building his identity and sound. Through the interview, JAY B shared, "In the past, I accepted tours merely as work, but now I am fully experiencing and enjoying new cities and every moment," adding, "I am satisfied with the present, growing sincerely at my own pace rather than chasing something," revealing the deepened inner world of the artist.

Having completed all tours, JAY B expressed heartfelt reflections, stating, "I deeply thank fans around the world who sent passionate cheers toward me on stage from Seoul to six cities in Asia and the United States. The roots of my music and performances are always you, the fans," and added, "From now on, I will become an artist who develops at my own pace and with my own sound."
