What to know – NBC 6 South Florida
One of the top hip hop music festivals, Rolling Loud, will make its annual raucous return to Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens from July 21-23.
Rolling Loud originated in South Florida in 2015, but it’s grown to include New York, Portugal, California, Thailand, and more.
Over 200,000 people attended the festival in 2019, according to organizers.
Who will perform?
Headliners Playboi Carti, Travis Scott, and A$AP Rocky are set to perform on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, respectively.
Other artists include Ice Spice, a Bronx-based rapper dubbed the “people’s princess” by fans, South Florida’s own rapper-businessman Kodak Black, and U.K. sensation Central Cee.
Last year, Kodak Black was arrested one week prior to the festival. Police found 31 oxycodone tablets in the rapper’s vehicle, and he was released on bond.
Kodak Black was also arrested during Rolling Loud in 2019 on firearm charges.
Over 75 artists will perform throughout the weekend.
