[2021 Lineup]

Festivals + gigs are what keep me going but I am starting to think that next year is going to be fairly similar to this. I think our only real hope to get either next year is a vaccine or a procedure that drastically reduces deaths and it could be a long time until any mass roll-out of either. More so than this, I really do feel for the smaller fests/ music venues that put their all into every year making only a small profit solely for the enjoyment of doing so. Along with that, the massive job losses in the industry that are already occurring.

Here's to hoping we can get back to some sort of normality in the music industry soon.

Tbh we may never get a vaccine so we will have to come up with a procedure that will benefit indoor/outdoor gigs and festivals. Maybe make masks mandatory and provide cleaning solutions everywhere within the venue and other rules that would help events to go ahead next year so people can have something to look forward to and help them through this year

A lot of Download acts aren’t from the U.K...

Oh really didn’t realise mate, I don’t follow download or and of that stuff tbh, but with things getting worse in USA etc it could be difficult for foreign acts to make it for all these festivals and gigs if restrictions are still in place next year ??

[2021 Lineup]

I can only see British acts possibly being at R&L or other UK festivals next year tbh as it seems USA and some other countries are 10x worse than us atm, that’s even if festival season goes ahead next year as people are saying 2022 is more realistic to go ahead. I would say 2021 has a chance as the government is on stage 4 out of 5 for allowing live performances and that, so hope and will being looking forward to next year. What do you guys think is it likely for festival season to happen next year and will indoor gigs happen next year too ?

It’s alright mate don’t worry. Yeah I’m not too sure who’ll appear myself. I expect people like Swarmz, Tion Wayne, Flohio to appear. Not sure on any American rappers or bigger names though. They always seem to kinda come out of nowhere when announced. 2018 for example when we randomly got Ski Mask, A Boogie and Sheck Wes announced out of nowhere.

Yeah that sounds good tbh still think they should include a few American rappers on the radio 1/radio 1 Xtra stage along with a few English rappers.

Hoping for 24Kgolden tbh as he’d fit in well at R&L as he’s got some decent songs

Are you going to continue posting this every day until you get the answer you’re looking for? This is the 4th time in the last couple day’s now haha, I replied with a couple I think will play and you downvoted it and clearly no one else really knows.
 

1Xtra is such an unpredictable tent tbf, sometimes it’s very strong others it’s very weak. Plus most on here don’t spend much of the fest in the 1Xtra tent so won’t have the best idea. The only rapper I’d be sure will turn up somewhere is Trippie Redd. I’m confident he’ll be on the lineup with the fests he’s playing around R&L.

My bad sorry if I post to much, just a big rap fan that’s all, but I get we’re your coming from I’ll slow it down 

[Lineup 2020]

Who do you guys think Rap artist wise will be added to the Radio 1 Xtra tent, I’m going on the Friday and part from Iann Dior there’s no one else interesting on that stage, hoping for a decent rap artist on the Radio 1 stage as well 

[Lineup 2020]

Which Rap artists do you guys think are likely to perform at R&L this year, so hoping for some decent ones tbh

Just for arguments sake. Who is the better booking? And in what lineup position?

skepta or dave

 

I’d say Dave tbh, Skepta is decent tho don’t get me wrong 

[Lineup 2020]

I’ve got my Friday Day tickets for Reading as that’s the best day in my opinion, I’m a Rap/Hip Hop fan so out of the many names to still be added to the lineup, what Rap/Hip Hop names do you guys think will be added the the lineup especially the Friday ?? 

[Lineup 2020]

Which Rap/Hip Hop acts do you guys think are yet to be announced and likely to play at R&L this year, as there’s most probs about 60-70 more names they’ve got to add yet to the lineup ??
