The “Espresso” singer said that her opinion on having phones at concerts changed after she attended a Silk Sonic concert in Las Vegas, at which she had to lock up her own phone.

I think it makes more sense to ban phones but give fans exclusive access to videos shot by the artists' team from the concert to download or post once the concert is done.

There is some value to artists for fans to post videos from their concert on social media, but it throws off the vibe of the actual concert.
