After Lil Uzi Vert disputed being part of the Rolling Loud lineup, they’ve been replaced by not one but two acts – Future and Metro Boomin.
The release of the lineup for Rolling Loud California was announced on Tuesday (November 14), and it featured a slew of top musical artists with Post Malone and Nicki Minaj revealed as headliners of the weekend festival along with Lil Uzi Vert supposedly performing on that Saturday. But shortly after the artwork was launched, the singer and rapper went on social media to dispute that appearance. “I never said I was doing rolling loud. Don’t understand why my name is on here,” they wrote in a post to their Instagram stories showing the flyer.
Festival organizers apparently took note of Lil Uzi Vert’s statement and promptly re-issued a new image of the full festival lineup with two notable changes on Wednesday (November 15). The first was the blurring out of Lil Uzi Vert’s name on the festival artwork in a new post to X, formerly Twitter which simply carried the caption, “OK bet” with the okay sign emoji. The second was the announcement of Future and Metro Boomin’s appearance at the festival. Rolling Loud also sent out another post boosting the duo’s upcoming album which will be released before the festival takes place.
Lil Uzi Vert is currently on tour for their most recent album, Pink Tape. The tour is slated to end on November 22 in the artist’s hometown of Philadelphia. Rolling Loud California will be held at the Hollywood Park Grounds venue in Inglewood, California on March 15 – 17. The festival also features other prominent performances from Rae Sremmurd, Summer Walker, YG & Tyga, and more. Presale tickets for the event were made available to the public on Thursday (November 16) at 10 A.M. PT, with general sales beginning on Friday (November 17) at 10 AM PT.
