Kendrick Lamar Gets Mic Cut At Austin City Limits After Defying Curfew

by

Kendrick Lamar found out the hard way that festival curfews are no joke. Lamar was the final act of Friday night at Austin City Limits and was informed of a strict 10pm curfew. At 10:02pm, a video posted by a fan showed Lamar still on stage. “I was told y’all have a curfew here. But Imma tell you what I told them. They gonna have to cut my mic because we ain’t done,” Lamar told a raucous crowd. At 10:18pm, the festival organizers did indeed cut Lamar’s mic. Lamar bowed and blew kisses to the crowd before finally leaving the stage a few minutes later.

Austin City Limits is one of the biggest music festivals in Texas and is absolutely packed with all-star musical talent. The show’s second day features names like Rina Sawayama, Shania Twain, Alanis Morissette, and the Foo Fighters. Meanwhile, Hozier, GloRilla, and Mumford & Sons are scheduled for Sunday. Lamar will return for the second weekend next week. Other hip-hop artists at the festival include Lil (Friday) and Coi Leray (Saturday).

Måneskin Cover Kendrick Lamar

Elsewhere, Lamar’s music got an unusual cover. Italian rockers Måneskin, who won Eurovision in 2021, covered “HUMBLE” during a show at Madison Square Garden in late September. “We cannot be the last rock band. But maybe we can be the first rap band,” lead singer Damiano David told the crowd before launching into the well-executed cover. While their claim about being the first “rap band” is debatable, it’s always a lot of fun to see what Måneskin will do next.

However, it’s a lot better than a different Lamar “homage” that came out of Europe last month. A TV karaoke competition in Poland went viral for all the wrong reasons after a contestant was seen performing “HUMBLE” while donning blackface. Even worse, the man in question, Kuba Szmajkowski, went on to win that episode of Your Face Sounds Familiar. As mentioned, the episode went viral online and caused the show to get a lot of backlash.

Austin City Limits Festival returns this year with headliners Kendrick Lamar, Foo Fighters, and Mumford & Sons, along with a lineup that includes some of the biggest names in music. The 1975, Alanis Morrissette, Shania Twain, and Hozier fill out the big print on this year’s flyer, while the rest of the roster runs the gamut from hip-hop to pop to rock, with dreamy singers like Kali Uchis and Lil Yachty, unapologetic rappers such as Coi Leray, GloRilla, and Little Simz, and genre-benders like Rina Sawayama taking the stage October 6-8 and 13-15. A message from ACL’s Twitter touts that this year’s ticket price will include all fees and shipping costs upfront so fans know what they’re getting without a Ticketmaster-style jump scare at checkout.

Austin City Limits’ latest lineup continues its tradition of diverse but stacked artist curation; last year, the festival was headlined by Lil Nas X, Paramore, Red Hot Chili Peppers, and SZA. This year’s fest will also be available to stream on Hulu thanks to a partnership with C3 Presents that will stream the 2023 events of ACL, Bonnaroo, and Lollapalooza on the popular platform. In a statement, C3 Presents co-founder Charlie Walker said, “The demand for live music is at an all-time high and the live experience has never been more connected to digital. By expanding our partnership with Hulu, even more fans will be able to tune into each of these incredible festival experiences in real-time and enjoy live performances from their favorite artists with the fans on-site.”

It’s not always feasible to put a weekend aside and get out to a major music festival, but now three of the biggest will be more accessible than ever, at least for the next couple years: It was announced today Hulu will be the streaming home of Bonnaroo, Lollapalooza, and Austin City Limits (all events put on by C3 Presents) for the 2022 and 2023 events, in partnership with Live Nation.

The next of those festivals is Bonnaroo, which is set to go down from June 16 to 19. Then it’s Lollapalooza from July 28 to 31, followed by two weekends of ACL, from October 7 to 9 and 14 to 16.

Hulu president Joe Earley in a statement, “Hulu and Live Nation are both committed to delivering exceptional entertainment to fans, so we are thrilled to be collaborating with them, again, as we expand our offering to include these three legendary festivals. Each event is unique, but all three bring people together for incredible music, artistry, and experiences, which we are fortunate to be able to share with Hulu subscribers.”

C3 Presents’ Charlie Walker also noted, “The demand for live music is at an all-time high and the live experience has never been more connected to digital. By expanding our partnership with Hulu, even more fans will be able to tune into each of these incredible festival experiences in real-time and enjoy live performances from their favorite artists with the fans on-site.”

This year’s Austin City Limits line-up is stacked with several exciting acts. Upon returning to Austin’s Zilker Park for its annual celebration of live music, ACL has a promising group of headliners.

Taking place over the course of three days for two consecutive weekends, Red Hot Chili Peppers, The Chicks, Pink, SZA, Kacey Musgraves, Flume, Paramore, and Lil Nas X will headline both the weekends of October 7 to 9 and October 14 to 16. Texas fans of Lil Nas X will be elated to see the “Industry Baby” rapper live after the initial announcement of his Montero tour didn’t include any Texas dates, due to the fact that his “ex lives out there.”

Also on the line-up are Diplo, Japanese Breakfast, Jazmine Sullivan, Omar Apollo, Bia and more.

While many of the acts will perform both weekends, some acts will only perform one of the weekends. Carly Rae Jepsen, Gayle, Lil Durk, and James Blake will all play weekend one only. Wet Leg, Lucky Daye, Princess Nokia, and Teezo Touchdown will play weekend two.

General on-sale begins today at noon CT. Check out the full line-up below.

Miley Cyrus Surprises Fans During Megan Thee Stallion’s Set At The Austin City Limits Festival

Those who attended Megan Thee Stallion‘s set at Austin City Limits on Friday got a surprise: Miley Cyrus crashed the set. Cyrus shared a video of the moment on her Instagram page and it shows her running to join Megan from stage left before briefly dancing the day away. “Dreams DO come true! Me & @theestallion doing hot girl shit!,” Cyrus captioned the post, with Megan replying, “Love youuuu.”

Cyrus’ appearance was quite brief, as she quickly ran backstage after busting out a few moves. It was later revealed that Billie Eilish was also backstage, but unlike Cyrus, she decided against running out there and hoofing up a storm. Cyrus later returned to the stage for a headlining set of her own, which closed out the night.

The Austin City Limits festival will continue throughout the weekend before returning next weekend. Those who attend will catch performances from Billie Eilish, Duran Duran, Tyler The Creator, St. Vincent, Doja Cat, Tierra Whack, Jack Harlow, Phoebe Bridgers, Erykah Badu, Polo G, and many more.

Austin City Limits Adds Tyler The Creator To Its 2021 Festival Lineup After Dropping DaBaby

Days after dropping DaBaby from its 2021 lineup, Austin City Limits Music Festival announced today that it would be adding a set from Tyler The Creator. Set times haven’t been announced yet, but the fest said they were imminent.

DaBaby was dropped by ACL earlier in August after the rapper delivered a bizarre rant during his Rolling Loud set that included homophobic comments and attacks towards those with HIV/AIDS. DaBaby then issued — and subsequently deleted — an apology for his words on social media. “I want to apologize to the LGBTQ+ community for the hurtful and triggering comments I made,” he wrote. “Again, I apologize for my misinformed comments about HIV/AIDS and I know education on this is important.” His (now-deleted) apology was swiftly deemed insincere, with a number of high-profile artists such as Madonna, Elton John, Questlove, and Dua Lipa condemning him for the rant.

In addition to ACL, DaBaby has been dropped by a handful of prominent music festivals; Lollapalooza, Governors Ball, Day N Vegas, and more have all removed him from the lineups to their festivals this year.

As for Tyler, the Call Me If You Get Lost rapper recently offered his thoughts around what it means to be “canceled” (around 2014-2015, Tyler was banned from Australia, the UK, and New Zealand for his lyrics that were deemed to be promoting violence and homophobia). In a particularly relevant-seeming conversation, he told Hot 97’s Ebro In The Morning crew:

“People just go back to stuff and go ‘look what he used to do.’ And it’s like yeah, but I’m not on that no more. So what’s your end goal? When people go back and dig up old stuff from someone who’s here now, it’s like hey, what’s your end goal? Accountable… what does that mean? Is the goal, you shouldn’t do that, you should change and be a better person? Not even me, but to whoever they’re saying it to… I’ve been a better person for the last nine years. That was ten years ago. But I think people like doing that to make themselves feel better about themselves.”

The 2021 Austin City Limits Music Festival takes place October 1-3 and 8-10 at Zilker Park. Get more info here.
