Hot 97 Summer Jam XX went down last Sunday (June 2), and for those in attendance it was pretty much a blast. No one got called out on the Summer Jam screen and no (major) artists were no-shows, but all the acts brought their best for the capacity crowd.
Instead, the atmosphere was one of making sure you got your shine on, and brought your friends along for the ride, too. So Miguel brought out J. Cole and Mariah Carey, A$AP Rocky let Bone Thugs & Harmony get busy and Nicki graciously accepted 2 Chainz’s invite to the stage. The weather was threatening and by the time Kendrick Lamar hit the stage it was raining. Nevertheless, the Compton star and his TDE squad still held it down to set up French Montana’s closer.
Of course, Papoose’s stage crashing antics almost stole the entire show. Although in a matter of days the conversation in Hip-Hop has switched to J. Cole’s new album or Foxy Brown on the Combat Jack Show, those who made the trek to MetLife Stadium were treated to a memorable show.
Check out some dope images from Hot 97 Summer Jam XX in the gallery. We already can’t wait for next year.
