Friday, Sept. 23, kicks off the third annual Rolling Loud New York festival.

Taking place at the Citi Field in Queens, Rolling Loud will feature Nicki Minaj performing her first headlining set with Rolling Loud on Friday, while A$AP Rocky takes on Saturday, Sept. 24 and Future closing things out Sunday, Sept. 25. 

Rolling Loud New York was the center of attention on Thursday after the NYPD called for the franchise to remove rappers Sha Ek, Ron Suno, and 22Gz from the 2022 Rolling Loud New York Festival, according to the New York Times.  This is the second time 22Gz has been removed from the Rolling Loud lineup.

“I was informed by Rolling Loud that NYPD is pulling us off the show. With no explanation,” said Diamond “Bo” Brown, Suno’s manager, via text. “How does a person who [has] no criminal record and no gang activities be denied to perform in his hometown after all his hard work, It’s crazy because he never even made a diss record.” Brown says festival organizers assured her that Suno would still be paid for the booking “and will hopefully be able to perform at later events.”

Rolling Loud New York will be hosted by Hakeem Rowe, YesJulz, and himynamestee. The livestream will broadcast performances from the FashionNova and D’usse stages for all three days via Youtube starting at 2 PM.

Last month, Lil Baby wrapped up his ‘One of them Ones’ tour with Chris Brown and unleashed his first documentary, Untrapped on Amazon Prime Video. As the documentary continues to get raving reviews from fans and critics, the Atlanta native announced on Thursday, September 1, that his brand new album ‘It’s Only Me,’ would be dropping October 14, 2022.

“I [know] its been a long time coming, but I’m coming harder And harder,” he wrote on Instagram.

To celebrate the announcement, Lil Baby dropped the official video for his new single, “Detox.”

It’s Only Me serves as a follow-up to Lil Baby’s 2020 album, My Turn. In 2021, he collaborated with Lil Durk on the joint album, The Voice of the Heroes.

This weekend, Jay-Z will be celebrating the 10th anniversary of his Made In America festival. Taking place at Benjamin Franklin Parkway in Philadelphia, the two-day musical event is set to feature performances by GloRilla, Bad Bunny, Flo Milli, Burna Boy, Victoria Monet and more!
