Summer Smash 2024 Lineup

No matter what niche of the genre speaks to you the most, there's at least something here to latch onto, and it also builds off of a lot of established hype this year for many of these MCs. Travis Scott, for example, just performed at the Mercedes-Benz showcase, and will likely bring even more of that luxurious and larger-than-life energy at Summer Smash. Playboi Carti seems no closer to dropping his new album, but the hype for it hasn't died down one bit, either. As for Sosa, even though Chief Keef has delayed Almighty So 2 multiple times, he remains as beloved as ever and still fed fans with his DIRTY NACHOS tape.

Meanwhile, who are you (or would you be) most excited to see on this Summer Smash 2024 lineup? Are you looking forward to these artists' next or current moves?
