Rolling Loud Miami has announced its 2022 festival lineup. Kendrick Lamar, Kanye West, and Future will headline, with sets from Lil Uzi Vert, Playboi Carti, Baby Keem, Lil Baby, Gunna, Lil Durk, Saweetie, City Girls, Gucci Mane, Three 6 Mafia, Flo Milli, A$AP Ferg, and more. Check out the full roster on the poster below.
The 2022 edition of the annual fest will return to Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens, Florida, taking place July 22-24. Last year’s headliners were Travis Scott, A$AP Rocky, and Post Malone—the same set from the postponed 2020 festival. Kendrick recently performed as part of the Super Bowl Halftime Show. Kanye recently rolled out his new album Donda 2, which was made in collaboration with Future.
Last year’s Rolling Loud Miami was the scene of multiple controversies. One day before the festival’s scheduled start date, a stage structure, specifically a projection screen, collapsed during load in and construction. Fortunately, no one was injured.
Days later, a 23-year-old festival attendee went missing, but was eventually found. On the festival’s final day (July 25), DaBaby made homophobic comments while addressing the crowd during his set, causing sustained backlash from the music community. DaBaby’s set also included an appearance from Tory Lanez, who violated a protective order put in place to safeguard Meghan Thee Stallion, a Rolling Loud Miami performer. (Lanez had been ordered to refrain from contacting or coming within 100 yards of Megan.)
