Critical Praise:
“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
“Rolling Loud is the be-all of hip-hop festivals.” – Billboard
“The Rolling Loud New York experiment was a success—one which will likely earn it a return trip to the city in future years. Far from a traditional NYC rap experience, it was a two-day event that catered to the genre’s youngest fans, with an eye squarely focused on the future.” – Complex
“In only its fifth year with four major destinations and more in the pipeline overseas, athletes, celebrities and others are forking over as much as $20,000 for VIP packages. Of course, imitators are cropping up.” – Pollstar
The Announcement:
Not just the world’s largest hip-hop festival, Rolling Loud makes waves in the world of fashion with its cutting edge merchandise. Preparing fans for the brand’s biggest year yet, Rolling Loud unveils a new limited edition premium merch drop, conceptualized and curated by co-founder Matt Zingler. Designed by Ed Hume with Ray Guilbault as the creative director, the new Cut-N-Sew collection displays striking metal-influenced symbolism (flames, bones, barbed wire) in sharp black-and-white, offering flannels in three colors, three distinct designs for hoodies, socks, and sweatpants, plus Rolling Loud’s first pair of custom flip-flops. Made with 580gsm custom knit French Terry fabric and suitable for all seasons, the Cut-N-Sew collection is currently available for sale at Rolling Loud’s website.
“With this new collection, I wanted to make sure that fans who bought the merch had the best experience possible,” says Matt Zingler. “It needed to look great, and feel even better. Ray, Ed, and I developed a collection that fans can wear all year long.”
The Rolling Loud team is currently preparing Rolling Loud 2020, the sixth annual flagship festival for the world’s largest festival brand. Occurring on May 8th-10th at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens, Florida, #RL6 promises to be the most extravagant Rolling Loud event yet, promising three full days of performances by the hottest names in rap. The festival’s Black Friday pre-sale event sold out in a matter of hours.
Late in 2019, festival took to social media to announce Rolling Loud Europe, their first festival on the continent, occurring in a to-be-announced country later this year.
Most recently, Rolling Loud returned to Southern California for Rolling Loud Los Angeles, which drew 55,000 fans per day and boasted performances from A$AP Rocky, Lil Uzi Vert, Chance The Rapper, and many more. Rolling Loud L.A. was the fifth sold-out Rolling Loud event of 2019, which kicked off with the fest’s first international edition Rolling Loud Australia in January, continuing with the festival’s 5th Anniversary in Miami, its third annual trip to NorCal with Rolling Loud Bay Area, and its first foray to the birthplace of hip-hop with Rolling Loud New York.
Stay tuned for more announcements about Rolling Loud events in the coming weeks.
