With Donald Trump getting ready to take office on January 20th of next year, many people are in no rush to get the new year started. However, there is a report floating around that Beyoncè and Kendrick Lamar are rumored to be headlining Coachella 2017. (Now that’s something to be excited for.)
HITS Daily Double is reporting that both artists are set to headline the festival, along with another rumored performer, Radiohead. As of now nothing is imminent, but the rumor should create extra hype for festival. Both Yoncè and Lamar have made appearances at the festival before, but never as headliners.
K. Dot performed at the festival in 2012 and appeared as a special guest for both Ice Cube’s set and Anderson .Paak’s last year. Kendrick’s catalalog during Coachella 2012 was nowhere near what it is now, as he was just a mere supporting act with his name on the final row of the lineup list in a tiny letters. See if you could find it below.
Beyoncè has popped up at a couple festivals in the desert before, most recently during her sister Solange’s set in 2014. The Diva also joined her hubby, Jay-Z onstage in 2010.
The official lineup for Coachella 2017 will be released in early January of next year. The event will be at its usual location in Indio, CA. from April 14th-16th and the second weekend April 21st-23rd.
DJ Khaled has already hinted that he will be taking his special cloth talk to the festival. Stay tuned.
