After his 4th time singing the song he went into songs like Realest, Forward, Pretty Devil, Simple Song and Buss a Blank. But it was the first single off his soon to be released debut album titled "Mental Maintenance", which had the crowd in a frenzy.

Konshens started with the intro "We Nuh Frighten fi Nobody" and the crowd went crazy, he attempted to sing the song 4 more times.  After pleading with his fans "mek mi finish di song nuh, you nuh want dem fi know say, No Bwoy Nuh Badda Dan we", and his fans began to jump, scream, buss blank and request that he sing the song again. After pleasing his fans and singing Do Sumn  5 more times, Konshens would continue with his set and close with another crowd favorite Winner.
