I'd argue that more people know Kim Kardashian over a fair few of those

Do we think Daft Punk may join for stronger? Would be great!

It's happened before but seems a bit pointless.

Do we think Daft Punk may join for stronger? Would be great!

To do what exactly? Will we have to wait for them to plug in all their instruments?

Has some credible points really.

A lot of big named rap artists, don't put on a particularly good show if you compare it to rock or some other genre. Then again you can still really enjoy something without the performance being mind blowing.

Almost none of which are exclusive to hip-hop.

I'm sick of these straw-man hip-hop shows man! Sometimes it's almost if they've been invented by a hack journalist for a lazy and reductive clickbait article!

[Napoleon_Ultra]

I'd agree with that.

The article does highlight an issue where the genre may suffer though, if it doesn't adapt as a whole.

Maybe.

I haven't seen the list of the successful tours, but i would imagine a lot of the biggest in terms of financial success are rock, plus a few new school pop artists.

[TiZuff]

lost in the world would be incredible live. dont know if its the right song for the glastonbury crowd though!

Also, re that Guardian article:

"Do you think the Rolling Stones or Fishbone would pull a stunt like that? "

I don't know what I find funnier: how blatant an attempt this is to stop people accusing him of racism, or the fact that the only example of a Proper Band™ he could think of with black members was Fishbone.

Seriously, Fishbone?

He's a motherfucking gay fish.

I personally think Kanya set is going to be amazing "Really" as he has had a lot of flack from people and which was un- necessarily so think he might do a real good show maybe even a few celebs joining him so will defo be there.

Gotta say as strong as yeezys recent setlist looked, the performance itself at Powerhouse was way, way below par. From 25 mins in his voice goes. Only One near the end was completely embarressing. I couldn't watch. I sincerely hope he offers more at Glastonbury than that.

Although I'll probably be too wasted to care...

Me too!! as in "wasted" but going along, just in case it ends up as a real good show "you never know".

Completely forgot that I had a tenner on Big Sean to appear at 8/1!

Anything changed to make this more or less likely do we know of?

No it wasn't , it was to take elements of better live performences including from older hip hop, but of course this wouldn't fit in with the narrative of the bigger rap/pop acts being shit live. Depends what you what from live music I guess, some are are happy with MP3s and a bit of stage production, others want to see it performed.

Yeah I mean if alot of people think you are shit, you will suddenly become amazing overnight...

He's added an appearance at another event in London on the Sunday... not really sure whether that makes him less likely or not.

only meaning, I think he will probably put on a good performance and would personally like to watch him on that evening, each to there own what they think.
