8 p.m. and 10:30 p.m., Friday May 11 | $22
Once Nick Cannon firmly established himself on television and then in
Hollywood, he expanded his reach into music, signing to Jive Records.
The young multi-talent made his smash debut in late 2001 with a remake
of DJ Jazzy Jeff & the Fresh Prince's 1988 hit, "Parents Just Don't
Understand," which appeared on the Jimmy Neutron, Boy Genius soundtrack
and also featured Lil' Romeo and 3LW. Cannon returned in early 2003 with
his self-titled debut album for Jive and its lead-off single, "Your
Pops Don't Like Me (I Really Don't Like This Dude)." The follow-up
single, "Gigolo" featuring R. Kelly, was a huge smash hit. In 2005,
Cannon signed a deal with Motown Records to launch his own imprint, Can I
Ball Records, but his second album, Stages, was never released.
Cannon's next disc, released three years after he married Mariah Carey,
was a comedy album, Mr. Showbiz (2011), released on his N'Credible label
