I've been wondering this, they had Qtip last year and I think it was Kool Keith the year before that, they always have a seminal hiphop act somewhere.

I'd love to see:

DJ Shadow
Cut Chemist
KRS-One
De La Soul
Del Tha Funkee Homosapien (performing Deltron 3030 stuff would be insane)
The Pharcyde

Any of those!

Here's the lineup rumours: http://www.efestival...0/lineup.shtml#

I imagine there'll be one or two hip hop acts scattered around the place.

Hopefully not of the "look how cool I am because I pimp, push and murder" variety.

He played last year didn't he?

And yeah, I doubt the Eavis' would be inviting the kind of rap that promotes violence and what have you.

Afrika Bambaata would be great, and the Sugar Hill Gang.

Perfect music for a sunny afternoon!

We caught Dans le sac v Scroobius Pip doing a secret gig in the Igloo last year, fantastic. Didn't know much about them before, I know a lot more now. :P

Fingers crossed for a return this year. :P

I'd cream myself if KRS One played. I'd also like to see Mos Def up there, but thats very very unlikely.

I saw De La Soul on the pyramid stage in 2003. So much fun!

Glastonbury need to get serious about hip-hop and start booking solid acts, and more of them.

Every year there is a topic posted about hip-hop at glasto and usually the posts are about the lack of it.  Normally we get 4 or 5 acts, not enough IMO.

Get Madlib booked, anyone of his many personas will do, followed by DOOM and book acts that are actually innovating hip-hop at the moment, not who are resting on their laurels (im looking at you De La Soul)

I think Cypress Hill are about during the summer aren't they? They may be due a return after their starring role in the Glastonbury film. KRS_One would be great. I quite like Lupe too, his set from 2008 looked good on TV

Lupe was brilliant, put on a great show. Has a new album due to so fingers crossed.

Others I'd (realistically) love to see play:

Chali 2Na
Big Boi
Snoop (he can get a visa now)
Ghostface or Raekwon

No room for hip-hop but room for Jurassic 5?

A classic J5 fan!
