In response to what has been characterized as “Patti-fever,” the cultural connoisseurs of Jammins Entertainment, assisted by Gmax Enterprises, scheduled a second appearance of the iconic soul star, Patti LaBelle. Both shows – the initial one at 7p.m., and the added appearance at 10p.m. – took place at the prestigious Brooklyn Academy of Music, on Valentine’s Day.

The versatile two-time Grammy winning singer has over 40 years in the music business and is a cultural icon to multiple generations of fans. She performed her classic, genre-crossing hits like “On My Own,” “Lady Marmalade,” “If Only You Knew,” “Live! One Night Only,” and “Burnin’ “ with her distinctive four octave voice, all while looking fabulous in a stunning bright red dress and high heels.
