The Announcement:
Known for booking an unbeatable array of talent, Rolling Loud lineups are time capsules of a moment in rap history. Dialing up some of rap’s biggest names for their second virtual festival, Rolling Loud reveals the lineup for the second “Loud Stream.” Headlined by Trippie Redd and Gunna, the upcoming stream promises a fully live experience, complete with state-of-the-art production value, thrilling performances, entertaining between-sets interviews and commentary, and absolutely zero pre-recorded sets.
Airing exclusively on Twitch on October 30th and October 31st from 6pm to 12pm ET, the virtual festival is Rolling Loud’s first Halloween-themed event–expect extravagant visuals, eye-popping merch, and additional scary surprises. During the stream, Rolling Loud will launch a costume contest for fans at home. Post a picture of your costume to socials with the hashtag #RLHALLOWEEN to enter for the chance to win tickets, merch, cash, and other prizes.
In addition to the headliners, the lineup boasts a formidable undercard, including heavyweights like Young Dolph and Lil Pump, rising stars like The Kid Laroi, iann dior, and $NOT, leading ladies like Coi Leray, Rubi Rose, and Sukihana, plus many more.
The upcoming “Loud Stream” is the second of three virtual festivals Rolling Loud has planned for 2020. Headlined by Swae Lee & Ski Mask The Slump God, Rolling Loud’s first “Loud Stream” brought in over 4.4 million total live views (3 million unique viewers) to their Twitch channel, peaking at 60k concurrent viewers. Featuring performances of new material by both headliners and additional performances by Polo G, Lil Keed, NLE Choppa, and more, the broadcast topped Pollstar’s Livestream Chart, beating out the much-publicized Verzuz battle between Gladys Knight and Patti LaBelle.
Rolling Loud is dedicated to enacting meaningful social change in the name of racial and social justice. During the second “Loud Stream,” Rolling Loud will raise funds for the Equal Justice Initiative, an organization committed to ending mass incarceration and excessive punishment in the United States, to challenging racial and economic injustice, and to protecting basic human rights for the most vulnerable people in American society.
The “Loud Stream” virtual events are part of Rolling Loud’s wide-ranging partnership with Twitch, which includes daily live hip hop-driven programming, offering special guests and original live shows like The Rotation, The Leak, and Loud Gaming. Recent guests on Rolling Loud’s Twitch programming include Machine Gun Kelly, Swae Lee, Jaden Smith, Cordae, Cole Bennett, King Von, Curren$y, and many others.

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
“Rolling Loud continues to prove its hip-hop tastemaking status is no fluke” – Pollstar
