He could still easily be booked as the rap headliner, which would be extremely lame. Booking MGK as your rap headliner instead of actual POC hip hop artists is fucked up (if that is the case).
i mean on one hand the amount of entitled people in the comments who want like the bamboozle 2009 lineup or nothing is also just as eyeroll inducing
The way that post is worded... It sounds like a hip-hop artist releasing a rock album who hasn't done that yet. Honestly, he mentioned that "look to the future" phrase again in that post though. Have there been any rumblings about Future doing that? (Building off of what @ItsAndrew posted about their NYC show coming up this week.) Anyway, John D also posted that the wrestling at Bamboozle will "blow away anything you've seen before." LOL. Okay, buddy. Okay.
Also how hard can it be to just announce a different headliner? Get on the phone with the 2 other headliners and explain the situation and give them more money or a longer set to announce earlier then planned
Also If I was going to spend $1000 plus with airfare/hotel to go to a festival when I already live in Chicago and have lolla and riot. im going to adjacent, wwwy or sick world not this shit show regardless of the headliners
He had me at wresting. Absolutely can’t miss that. Also want to find my new favorite food truck. This guy is out of his mind. I deal with people like him all the time at work. They just are delusional. I just can’t understand how badly anyone wants a job to be involved in this mess.
Wrestling I give no shit about at all I don’t care how good he claims it might be. The best wrestling in the world won’t interest me. food on the other hand, I’ve never been to a festival with good food and a lot of options so if he actually makes that a thing I’ll welcome it
One thing I’ll say, this at least confirms ticket sales are great, if you are selling boatloads of tickets you don’t get defensive or explain your thinking that many times.
The headliner is doing an arena show this week? Guys, we’re getting Trans Siberian Orchestra!!! But no seriously, it’s either Future or 21 Savage. Their show on Friday at Barclays Center is not selling too well, so even with the 5 month gap and 120 mile distance they probably asked to delay to avoid loss of last minute sales
As for his comment on hip hop artists doing rock albums, I bet that means Trippie Redd is on the undercard My final guess on headliners is Fall Out Boy - Future - Demi Lovato (I would’ve said Halsey but now I’m thinking they can’t afford them)
You know I love music festivals but they’re all the same- nothing but music. I would really love one where I can watch esports or tiktokkers in between yung gravy and Atilla
I was thinking this too for several other artists - there are probably many of them that are deliberately avoiding this entire thing.
Who the hell is Kayzo? Hahaha After all the damage control he tried doing yesterday you’d think he’d want todays announcement to be a good one
He has 1.3 million monthly on spotify. An EDM friend said he’s a dj that has metalcore features and elements
He’s a big-ish EDM artist. I have no idea what he is doing on this lineup. The demographic of Bamboozle are not EDM heads. I’ve never heard his stuff before though so I can’t comment on the music itself.
I just listened through his top tracks and it def sounds like it fits the mold. Like the booking doesn’t make sense cause edm kids don’t want to come and the people that wanna coke won’t like this but the music isn’t out of place
