The concert, held at the Jean Pierre complex, featured local acts Bunji Garlin, Machel Montano and Shurwayne Winchester who held their own.
But the night clearly belonged to West as he delivered hit after hit from his College Drop Out and Late Registration albums.
West thanked the thousands in the audience for supporting his albums noting how patrons sang song after song. Gold Digger, Slow Jams, Roses, Heard em Say, Touch the Sky were some of the songs Kanye belted out on his near hour date with an enthusiastic Trini audience.
He kept those faithful until 3am before belting out his much anticipated Jesus Walks. But they lapped up every minute of it.
Accompanying West on the song were members of the St Augustine Chamber Orchestra. Their violins rang out strong when West ordered the DJ to kill the music midway to allow him sing acapella.
West's performance was clean and void of profanity or lewdness making it palatable for the crowd that also included those 13 and under.
Gold Digger was the tune West selected to close off his set capping off what many agreed was one of the best concerts they have seen in a while.
The show was not without its shortcomings. The breaks between acts were quite long, and before West took the stage, MC/DJ Hypa Hoppa had started to annoy those present by quizzing them on every song his DJ played in an effort to pass the time.
Disgusted with Hoppa, upset patrons started to text nasty messages about him to 8788, taking advantage of TSTT's night-long offer to have text messages appear on the big screen.
"Get off the stage, Hypa," was one of the publishable ones.
When that didn't work, chants of "Kanye" grew stronger from an audience that was both impatient and wet from a nagging drizzle.
It was cler to all at the end of the show why Kanye West was clearly on top of his game.
