It’s about that time; January is traditionally when the year’s slate of festival lineups is announced, and New York’s Governors Ball Music Festival is no exception. Here’s everything we know about Governors Ball 2024.

When Is Governors Ball 2024?

The dates for Governors Ball 2024 have not yet been announced. Governors Ball 2023 took place June 9-11, so it’s likely that the 2024 edition will take place in early June.

Who Is Headlining Governors Ball 2024?

December 19, 2023 by newhiphopnews

The 2024 music festival season is on track to revival this year. So far, Lollapalooza has announced their international installments (Chile, Brasil, India, and Argentina) of the event. Domestically, Bonnaroo, Solid Sound, Stagecoach, Sol Blume, and Dreamville Fest have already begun to roll their lineups. Now, all eyes are on the holdout like Governors Ball.

Who is headlining Governors Ball 2024?

As of today (December 19), organizers for the multi-day festival have not announced the lineup. Fans eager to iron out their plans for summer 2024 have been speculating who could appear. For the 2023 festivities, the headliners included Lizzo, Odesza, and Kendrick Lamar. These entertainers had released a new project at the time or were reentering mainstream popularity.

Keeping that in mind, festivalgoers are sharing their dream lineup online, which lists Peso Pluma, SZA, Nicki Minaj, and Travis Scott as potential headliners. Unfortunately, it will be a while until the official lineup for Governors Ball 2024 is made public. For now, supporters are just going to have to sit patient.

If this year’s festival could stand up despite the Canadian wildfire smoke aftermath, next year should be no problem.

When Will The Governors Ball 2024 Lineup Come Out?

December 19, 2023 by newhiphopnews

NYC’s annual music festival, Governors Ball, will be returning during the summer of 2024. Typically held at Flushing Meadows Corona Park now, attendees who are interested in going might want to know exactly who is playing before buying tickets — or making the trek from another state.

Here’s what to know.

When Will The Governors Ball 2024 Lineup Come Out?

While it’s currently the holiday season, it also means that the release of the Gov Ball lineup is right around the corner. In both 2022 and 2023, the music festival unveiled it at some point in January, building anticipation and giving guests a few months to prepare.

So, right now, it is still unknown who exactly will be taking the festival stages. That hasn’t stopped speculation on Reddit, however, as users are trying to sleuth some of the lineup by using the radius clause — meaning who doesn’t have an NYC-based show.

Claire Rosinkranz is allegedly confirmed, as one user pointed out she has a Governors Ball Presents show that summer. Other potential acts include Bleachers, Chappell Roan, Tyla, Teezo Touchdown, Idles, Greta Van Fleet, and Inzo.

Others in the comments have also been hoping for Lorde, Jpegmafia, The Killers, and more. Red Hot Chili Peppers are also listed, but as an unlikely possibility — just not completely ruled out. To reiterate, though, this is all fan speculation.

Those wanting more information about Gov Ball 2024 can sign up on their website.

Lil Nas X “Didn’t Want To Perform” After Tech Issues At Governors Ball

June 13, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Despite concerns over air quality, New York’s Governors Ball music festival still took place over the weekend. While plenty of artists had great performances, Lil Nas X struggled with technical difficulties throughout. The “Industry Baby” rapper took the stage on Sunday in Flushing Meadows Corona Park. Unfortunately, shortly into the set he started experiencing technical difficulties and had to take a 10-minute delay. According to Page Six, the technical issues carried on throughout the show.

Their source claims that Lil Nas X performed “very begrudgingly” following the issues. They also report that dancers practically “had to carry the show” as Nas X’s mic had continual problems. He was reportedly excited to perform before the show started but quickly got frustrated. “There were a lot of logistics that were off, and it all accumulated onstage when the mic wasn’t working,” their inside source reports. Though neither Lil Nas X or Governors Ball had any comment on the performance, it seems like everyone agreed it could be better.

Lil Nas X Deals With Technical Difficulties

Nas wasn’t the only artist making headlines for his Governors Ball set. After his performance, Kendrick Lamar closed out the whole festival with an extravagant show. He left fans with a message that he would “be back” which sparked plenty of discourse online about what he meant. Fans also seemed to adore Ice Spice’s set where the rapidly ascending star unpacked all her most well-known songs in an adorable jean fit.

Lil Nas X has been silent when it comes to new music so far this year. His most recent new release is still the League Of Legends-affiliated single “STAR WALKIN’” from last year. With his debut album MONTERO turning two in a few months fans have been begging for news on when new music may come. Earlier this year he posted a Twitter thread explaining some plans for a new album. Though with the superstar’s common social media antics, it’s hard to know when exactly he means what he says.

Kendrick Lamar Promises He’ll “Be Back” After Governor’s Ball Performance

June 12, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Despite the air quality issues plaguing New York all week, Governor’s Ball Festival still took place over the weekend. Among the headlining sets was Kendrick Lamar fresh off his tour supporting last year’s Mr. Morale & The Big Steppers. After Lizzo closed out Friday and Odesza closed out Saturday, Kendrick served as the finale to the entire festival. Lamar worked through a number of his biggest hits and much of the tracklist of Mr. Morale. He also had a special guest on stage, his cousin Baby Keem. The pair teamed up for their hit 2021 single “family ties.” Elsewhere in the setlist, Kendrick performed his parts of The Weeknd’s song “Sidewalks” and Pusha T’s “Nosetalgia.”

After closing his performance with a rousing rendition of “Savior” Kendrick Lamar had one final message for the crowd. After listing off all of his albums so far he made a promise that felt like a message for all his fans. “Because of you, I’ll be back” Lamar said as fireworks were set off behind the stage. While nothing has been officially confirmed it’s easy for fans to extrapolate what Kendrick may have meant with this message. After a five-year gap between Mr. Morale and his previous album, DAMN many are hoping he doesn’t take as much time off this time.

Despite no news on a new album any time soon, Kendrick has stayed busy. Just a few weeks ago he teamed up with Baby Keem once again for a new single called “The Hillbillies.” The track’s music video featured Kendrick and Keem acting their goofiest and featured a special guest appearance from Tyler, The Creator. In fact, during the video’s final moments, Tyler made a sort of soft announcement that his Flow Gnaw festival would return for the first time since 2019.

Kendrick also showed up on a recently released remix of “AMERICA HAS A PROBLEM” from Beyonce’s Renaissance album last year. The surprise drop saw the two critical darlings teaming up for Beyonce’s second new remix of the year. Earlier in 2023 she dropped a “Wetter” version of another Renaissance track, “Cuff It.”

Governor’s Ball 2023: Ari Lennox, Kendrick Lamar, And Ice Spice Among Best-Dressed Performers

June 12, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Summer is nearly here, and New York City is more abuzz with celebrities than ever. The past two weekends have seen some of the biggest names in hip-hop and R&B taking the stage at Hot 97 Summer Jam, and more recently, Governor’s Ball. While the former gave us performances from Cardi B, Lil Tjay, and Coi Leray (among others), the latter saw Lizzo headlining on Friday (June 9), and Kendrick Lamar closing things out on Sunday night.

This isn’t the only time we’ve seen K-Dot outside since wrapping up his Mr. Morale & The Big Steppers World Tour. Earlier this month he caught our attention at Primavera Sound, where the Pulitzer Prize-winning lyricist brought out clones to make a creative statement. His set in NYC last night was equally as riveting, and saw him wearing an orange and white outfit paired with a backwards blue cap.

There were plenty of noteworthy style moments throughout the weekend in Flushing Meadows Corona Park. Not only did those attending the event step out in their best, but artists like Ice Spice, Lil Nas X, and Ari Lennox made sure to show off plenty of body.

Elsewhere, Pusha T stepped out in a sleek Louis Vuitton look ahead of Pharrell Williams’ debut at the label. We also loved PinkPantheress’ homage to the ’00s, Giveon’s bright, all-white outfit, and Lizzo’s sparkly silver gown that had her resembling the Statue of Liberty.
