B.O.B's career was just taking off back in 2009 and he was a cat who, like Tom P, also claimed Decatur. He had recently signed a deal with Grand Hustle and had some buzz. I decided we should try to get a show with him. I went through some contacts I had made when we did our shows at The Bench and when we opened for D12.
Things came through and we were able to get on a B.O.B show. We named it The Jump Off 4. Sort of in conjunction with my Jump off series, we were trying to move into more legit venues instead. The show packed out with about 500-600 fans that were surprisingly mostly ours and not B.O.B's. It goes to show you how much things can change overnight.

My buddy T McG filmed the show and put together a few videos. I was able to find them buried deep on Youtube. FUN FACT: B.O.B performed Beautiful Girls at this show for the FIRST TIME ever in his career. Of course the song went on to be a mega hit and launched B.O.B into stardom. Anyway, here's some videos of the night. View those below.
