Hiphop festival, world

The Headline

Rolling Loud is the largest hiphop festival on the planet. 70,000+ attendees, every major artist in the genre, every label, every agency, all in one footprint for one weekend.

We didn't sponsor a stage. We didn't buy a branded activation. Something Dope had the ability to run our Open Mic inside the festival. Festival attendees signed up to perform. Many Something Dope artists bought tickets just to come do it. Same raffle ticket, same freestyle takeovers, same discovery energy, now live in front of the biggest hiphop audience on the planet.

A real cosign between two communities pointing in the same direction.
