i love TNGHT. would also love an appearance from Captain Murphy (aka the rapper alter ago of Flying Lotus, who can also be there)

more hip hop is definitely needed at Glastonbury. Kendrick Lamar, Big Boi, Schoolboy Q, Jay Z + Kanye, Joey Bada$$, any of Odd Future (probably unlikely... maybe Earl)

Higher Ground by TNGHT is so good, would love to witness it live.

Flying Lotus played it when he played at the Red Bull Music Academy takeover of the Warehouse project a few weeks ago, it went fucking mental when it dropped.

If I could have a tent booking solely hip-hop artists this is what I think it would have to be:

Nas

MF Doom

The Roots

E-40

Kendrick Lamar

Slick Rick

A$AP Rocky

El-P

Schoolboy Q

Danny Brown

Joey Bada$$ & Pro Era

Action Bronson

Yelawolf

Just been listening to Illmatic by Nas and thought I'd find this thread again. He's got a worldwide tour commencing shortly, coming to the UK twice in March, and it ends in early June. Could be possible.

Kendrick Lamar is top of my list these days. Would absolutely love it if he played.

yes to both

is either Nas or Kendrick Lamar are there then that would be absolutely fantastic (although yeah, Kendrick more right now as his album is just phenomenal)

Not that I am massively just into one music genre like Hip Hop. But is definitely one of the fresher more creative music genres at the moment!! So I totally agree we need more Hip Hop.

Glastonbury really needs to step away from relying on old tired indie bands.

This one is a bit out there, but I cam across Busta Rhymes on my ipod the other day and thought he would be fantastic for that Friday afternoon slot. I saw him live yearss ago and he is probably the most entertaining live hip hop act I've seen. Fantastic crowd engagement, good and varied back catalogue of songs and has one of the funniest 'hype mans' ever! (check out his and Spliff Starr's concert skits on youtbe).

    • Addison Rae has 33m instagram followers, Slayyyter 667k. Also 15 to 7,5 million spotify listeners with Addison's last release being more than a year ago. Obviously these metrics aren't everything, but still there is a big gap in popularity between the two.
    • Seems like the most obvious choice. Surprised they havent played since 2019 either.
    • My review of All Together Now 26, it was a whopper. https://niallmcquaid.wordpress.com/2026/08/06/all-together-now-2026-festival-review/
    • Yep it was on my list, id have loved to have gone. 
    • Am a relative amateur in the ticket/tech shenanigans and not part of a large group etc. but personally preferred the F5 bashing approach and got through twice in recent yrs (plenty when didn't, mind) - 2023 but it crashed on me at the final hurdle and then again in 2024 where I held my nerve when it crashed again and managed to get.  Think now I am committed to volunteering if doing festivals as that's close to my heart, so happy to help others when the time comes round.   The most impressive I've seen was bus sales in 2022 when 2 mates casually bagged tickets while in San Sebastian, on a phone inside the stadium during a Real Sociedad v Man Utd game!
