— Kendrick Lamar, Future, and a bevy of other artists help to make the seventh official Rolling Loud Miami an absolute success.
After 3 days of nonstop performances by the biggest names and hottest risers in rap, the seventh Rolling Loud Miami is in the books. Bringing in hundreds of artists and tens of thousands of fans, Rolling Loud Miami is rap music’s most iconic stage. This year’s Miami festival was Rolling Loud’s biggest event to date, with five stages for fans to enjoy surrounding the grounds of Hard Rock Stadium, proving once again why it’s rap’s biggest festival, gathering the culture for an unpredictable and spectacular event.
From the first night it was clear that absolutely anything can happen on their stages with Lil Durk blessing the crowd with a symphonic selection of street classics, in addition to bringing out Kanye West for a cameo performance despite the global superstar pulling out of the event himself. Later, Kid Cudi serenaded the main stage before unfortunately cutting his performance short due to some ignorant and unruly festival goers, Playboi Carti put on a dazzling display for his diehard fans in the crowd, and leading ladies like Saweetie and BIA strutted their stuff to rapturous applause. In addition, a bevy of bubbling newcomers like $NOT, SSGKobe, Ken Carson, and Scorey, also brought high-octane energy.
On the following day, Rolling Loud Miami saw the dirty south steal the show with trap artists like Gucci Mane, Kevin Gates, Soulja Boy, and City Girls before Future stole the show alongside special guest Travis Scott.
Miami 2022 ended on a high note, thanks to an unprecedented headlining performance from “Mr. Morale” himself, Kendrick Lamar.
Kendrick and his cousin Baby Keem found themselves in good company to close out another unforgettable Rolling Loud weekend, as big steppers like Lil Baby, EST GEE, Trippie Redd, Young Nudy, and more lined the festival’s five stages from start to finish. We also got to enjoy performances from rising rap queens, ranging from XXL Freshmen like Lakeyah and Kali to underground heroes like Babyxsosa.
