THE RECAP:

The inaugural Rolling Loud Germany is off and running at Messe München in the historic city of Munich, delivering another star-studded lineup of exciting talent from across the rap universe for day two. Saturday kept the momentum going with even more unforgettable sets from today’s rap superstars and A-listers in the making, all of whom lit up the Bavarian capital with their unmatched energy.

Saturday’s headliner was Mr. Morale himself, Kendrick Lamar, who reminded the German crowd why he’s often called the greatest with his captivating performance of hits spanning over a decade. Lil Uzi Vert made an electric showing with new hits from his recent Pink Tape project, while fan favorites like Memphis’ GloRilla, Dreamville rhymer JID, and trap super-producer Metro Boomin kept the energy sky-high throughout a beautiful day in Munich, which also included performances from underground stalwarts like Fat NickRobb Bank$, and Xavier Wulf. German giants Ufo361 and Luciano rounded out day two with exuberant sets that showcased the talent of the local rap scene.

The festivities continue for a third and final day on Friday, as Travis Scott headlines an international contingent of stars and risers looking to close the festival in style.

“Rolling Loud has become the biggest hip-hop festival in the country” – Variety

“From niche hip-hop festival to must-play event for some of the biggest stars in music.” – Pollstar

“Until Elon Musk involuntarily envelops society into a physical cloud universe, Rolling Loud will be the closest experience to actually living inside your streaming app.” – Complex

“Rolling Loud’s annual New York edition is always something special, but this year’s Halloween-weekend extravaganza (not to mention the first post-pandemic) brought seriously spectacular energy to Queens’ Citi Field.” – Highsnobiety

“Rolling Loud is a lifestyle brand. They are more than just the shows. They have built a community with their consumers and are building new channels to maintain continuity” – Forbes

“In four and a half years — beginning small in Miami, and now promoting Coachella-sized events around the country — Rolling Loud has established itself as a playground for the young…This time last year, many of the rappers now drawing crowds of several thousand were barely known.” – The New York Times

The Background:

About Rolling Loud

Founded by 6-time Billboard Hip-Hop Power Players Matt Zingler & Tariq Cherif as a one-day Miami show, Rolling Loud has grown into a global phenomenon, hosting festivals on both US coasts and in multiple international locations. Rolling Loud is the premier festival brand in hip-hop, known for its expert curation of wide-ranging lineups that reflect the state of the genre.

2022 was Rolling Loud’s biggest year yet. The festival returned to their home base of Miami for their largest event to date, headlined by Kid Cudi, Kendrick Lamar, and Future, and the inaugural Rolling Loud Portugal, which brought an international array of all-stars to the beaches of Portimåo, Portugal. The festival’s busy 2022 continued with the first ever Rolling Loud Toronto, headlined by Future, WizKid, and Dave, and the third annual Rolling Loud New York, headlined by Nicki Minaj, A$AP Rocky & Future.

In 2023, Rolling Loud expands its empire even further, returning to Los Angeles for Rolling Loud California, debuting Rolling Loud Thailand, its first-ever Asian festival, and staging three European shows including Rolling Loud Portugal, and the inaugural editions of Rolling Loud Rotterdam (NL) and Rolling Loud Germany.
