Owen Wilson had an epic weekend. On December 14, the Loki actor stormed the stage of Rolling Loud Miami 2024 with headliner Travis Scott.

But when Wilson was not serving as the hype man during Scott’s performance of “Fe!n,” he enjoyed other musicians’ set from the crowd. One of those performances included Sexyy Red. While hip-hop know the “Pound Town” rapper as a provocateur, Wilson was completely unaware. During Sexyy Red’s Rolling Loud Miami 2024 set, Owen Wilson was spotted looking on in utter shock. Well, the now-viral clip captured by a festivalgoer (viewable here), made its way back to Sexyy Red’s desk.

Yesterday (December 15), Sexyy Red took a moment to address leaving Wilson speechless. On X (formerly Twitter), Sexyy reposted the video with the caption: “Dats my baby Owen .”

That flirty response was enough to jump start Sexyy’s followers inner matchmaking skills. Others are now eagerly awaiting Wilson’s forthcoming film inspired by the festival. If Sexyy Red twerking was enough to knock him off of his feet, he has a lot of work to do to prepare for his upcoming role.

For true Sexyy Red fans, this isn’t even her most memorable Rolling Loud Miami moment. Back in 2023, Sexyy Red took was escorted onstage by shirtless men on leashes.

Sexyy Red Reacts To Owen Wilson Looking Shocked At Her Rolling Loud Performance

Sexyy Red has left many mouths agape since her rise to superstardom, but perhaps none have been funnier than Owen Wilson’s at Rolling Loud Miami’s tenth anniversary iteration this past weekend. Moreover, a clip went viral on social media of him staring at the screen projecting her during her performance, looking like he was frozen in time. It’s a hilarious video, and one that the St. Louis femcee couldn’t help but laugh at, too. “Dats my baby Owen [two kissing cats emojis],” she quote-tweeted the visual. It seems like Sexyy had a great time at the festival, running through her established bangers and through newer hits such as her Tyler, The Creator, GloRilla, and Lil Wayne collab “Sticky” off of Tyler’s CHROMAKOPIA.

But Sexyy Red wasn’t the only one who had a ball at Rolling Loud Miami, as Owen Wilson was up to a lot. He will star in an upcoming comedy film about the festival alongside Matt Rife, which is why he was there over the weekend to shoot some stuff and take in the vibes. An actor always does their research!

Sexyy Red Shouts Out Owen Wilson

Not only that, but he even got onstage with Travis Scott to prelude “FE!N” and see that sea of moshpit enthusiasts from a bird’s eye view. Well, a bird on a huge stage, anyway. As for Sexyy Red, 2024 was a pretty solid follow-up year to her breakout 2023, including a new project, plenty of collabs, big singles, and much more. Everybody who called this some simple 15 minutes of fame could not have been more wrong, and it’s clear that she can still rock a crowd with ease. It’s got us looking forward to 2025, and hopefully a more pronounced and exciting artistic redirection that still keeps the roots healthy.

Meanwhile, Owen Wilson might want to stray away from Sexyy Red if he’s looking for relationship advice. She and Summer Walker recently caught some flack for advising a fan to stay with a partner even though they cheated on her twice. Jokes aside, it’s always a treat to see pop culture crossovers that would never, ever appear on a Bingo card.

Owen Wilson Joins Travis Scott Onstage at Rolling Loud

Owen Wilson joins Travis Scott at Rolling Loud music festival

He’s known for crashing weddings, but over the weekend, Owen Wilson took “crashing” to a whole new level when he joined Travis Scott onstage during his performance of “FE!N” at Rolling Loud, much to the surprise and delight of the audience.

Wilson joined Scott on the rain-soaked stage as the song began, coming out and announcing “I’m feining for more” as pyrotechnics lit up the stage. Video footage shared to X (formerly Twitter) shows Wilson jumping around and pumping his fist as Scott performs his 2023 hit.

However, the performance was not an indication that Wilson will be leaving acting and entering the world of hip-hop anytime soon. The performance was reportedly staged as part of Wilson’s upcoming film, Rolling Loud, a comedy in which he stars opposite Matt Rife about a father who ventures to the music festival with his son and co-worker (Rife).

Scott, however, appeared thrilled to be joined by Wilson, posting a clip from the performance with the caption “made mi day” on his Instagram story, followed by a photo of Wilson’s iconic 1996 film “Bottle Rocket” with the caption “lej” (assumed to be a reference to Wilson’s legendary status).

The film Rolling Loud, which is written and directed by American High‘s Jeremy Garelic, is set to be released in 2025. In addition to his involvement in the film, Rife is currently in the midst of his Stay Golden Tour while Wilson has just wrapped up his second season of Disney+’s acclaimed Marvel series Loki. Scott, meanwhile, is set to headline at Coachella in April.

December 15, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Rolling Loud’s 10th-anniversary festival hosted its first-ever Christian Hip-Hop set with DJ Five Venoms, legendary producer Rodney “Darkchild” Jerkins, and his Alienz Alive roster at the helm. On Sunday afternoon (Dec. 15), the 30-minute set, known as “Chosen Journey,” delivered an unforgettable moment by Jerkins and his roster of emerging stars to an unexpected Miami audience. The set featured Caleb Gordon, Hulvey, and nobigdyl.

“This project has been guided by God’s hand,” said Darkchild. The set introduced a new era of faith and hip-hop on one of the biggest platforms in today’s live entertainment. Alienz Alive and Atlanta’s Trendsetter Sense inspired the set. Darkchild and Sense were introduced by Bryan Michael-Cox, a mutual friend. After that, DJ Five Venoms became involved in preparations. DJ Five Venom’s manager Troy Gunn proposed a collaboration with Trendsetter Sense’s Chosen Journey brand to create the first Christian Hip Hop set.

Alienz Alive is a label driven by faith. The mission is to create music that uplifts and elevates the artist. It’s a movement. Acknowleding the project’s significance, Jen promptly informed Darkchild, who quickly called Sense. Rodney enthusiastically embraced the vision and partnered with Sense, DJ Five Venoms, and Gunn to curate the live experience. Rolling Loud approved the collaboration. The set hopes to be the beginning of future opportunities for the artists and genre. Christian hip-hop has a well-known history of breaking down barriers. The first Christian hip-hop set was a part of JT’s tearful performance and Kodak Black’s awkward performance in Miami.

The 10th-anniversary headliner is Playboi Carti. The lineup includes rap’s biggest names. The 10th-anniversary has received many surprises, with more on the way as it comes to a close on Sunday evening. Over its ten years, Rolling Loud has delivered modern hip-hop’s biggest moments, including a surprise performance by Lauryn Hill, Ice Spice’s first live performance, and Playboi Carti with annual surprise guests. Playboi Carti began teasing his upcoming album in January. He has been in the studio with Ye, formerly Kanye West, throughout 2024.

December 15, 2024 by newhiphopnews

The 10th anniversary of Rolling Loud: Miami has delivered several memorable moments, but could deliver its biggest yet in Playboi Carti previewing his anticipated album, I Am Music, during his headlining set on Sunday (Dec. 15). Rolling Loud creator and founder Tariq Cherif mentioned the superstar said he is to preview the album in a new Instagram post. “When I got back from Thailand, Playboi Carti called me … We started talking about the album. He’s like, ‘Yo I’m play that sh*t at Rolling Loud. You saw him post it, I don’t know what he gonna do, he told you he’s gonna play that sh*t.”

During the clip, Cherif says he heard the album via Facetime but hopes to hear it live. He said: “I heard it on FaceTime .. that sh*t sounded amazing. He got another one, with that guy he got another song with, and OUUUUU that sh*t is crazy.”

Rolling Loud’s Tariq Cherif Says He Heard Playboi Carti’s New Album & He Said He Is Gonna Play It On Last Day of Rolling Loud: Miami

Playboi Carti’s Rolling Loud set is scheduled to begin at 10:45 PM EST on Sunday. Carti promoted the upcoming set across his social media accounts. Naturally, the news received excitement from the rap star’s fans. A user commented under NFR Podcast’s tweet: “I can’t wait to hear some of these songs for the first time with some of the worst audio quality I’ve ever heard with Carti screaming over it.” Another tweeted, “What a artist and time to be alive.”

Highly anticipated, I Am Music follows Carti’s third album, Whole Lotta Red, released in 2020. Carti began teasing the album last January. He describes it as the “evolution” of his artistry and his most exciting album yet. He previously claimed that the album would have no features. An official release date for the album has not been revealed yet. In 2024, Carti appeared in new music by Ye, The Weeknd, and Madonna.

Travis Scott Joined By Owen Wilson Onstage At Rolling Loud Miami For Film Shoot

December 15, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Travis Scott was one of the headliners for Rolling Loud Miami’s tenth anniversary this weekend, and unsurprisingly, he seemed to have a blast while closing out Saturday night (December 14). In fact, he even had a very special guest to join him onstage: Owen Wilson. It seems like we might see this moment in more elaborated full-screen glory, as he and Matt Rife will reportedly star in a comedy film about the hip-hop extravaganza. It will presumably come out at some point next week, and they filmed on location to bring the crowds and festival energy to life as closely as they could.

Owen Wilson was clearly fiending for more, and Travis Scott was happy to oblige as always. What’s more is that fans of La Flame are fanning the flames of another hype cycle, as he apparently will drop more music very soon. Of course, we can’t put too much stock into these rumors and promises, especially with the long wait for UTOPIA still relatively fresh in our minds. But considering how good the album was, fans are more than ready to wait for greatness.

Travis Scott & Owen Wilson Turn Rolling Loud Up

Still, that’s not to say that everything about this whole UTOPIA run was smooth sailing, as he sued a tour production company for $100 million. Apparently, Show Motion Engineering damaged his brand and caused significant financial losses by failing to deliver on their promised set design and using the Houston artist’s image and name to boost their own profile without authorization. A lot of fans probably didn’t even notice there was an issue to begin with, since the trek was so elaborate. Just goes to show that so much onstage magic has way more context behind it than concert-goers can gather.

As for Owen Wilson’s set cameo, we’re very curious to see how this Travis Scott performance could tie into the Rolling Loud movie or if it was just a one-off special guest appearance. The latter is an electric performer, so he could’ve probably met a Lifetime actor onstage and still created the same momentum. We’ll see if fans will get a chance to indulge in this excitement again in 2025.

Yesterday (December 14), Travis Scott made his return to Rolling Loud Miami. But the “Mo City Flexologist” rapper’s highly anticipated set was not just about him. During Rolling Loud Miami 2024, Scott used his headlining appearance as character development for one notable actor.

As Travis Scott transitioned into his beloved song “Fe!n” he was joined on stage by an unlikely duet partner Owen Wilson. In the now viral clip (viewable here), Travis Scott took Owen Wilson under his wing to deliver a high energy performance of the standout Utopia track.

Although Wilson didn’t quite have the lyrics to the song memorized he did introduce it with confidence. “I’m feigning for more,” Wilson yelled to the sold out crowd.

As for Scott and Wilson’s shocking collaboration, according to Deadline‘s latest report it could be field research for the actor’s upcoming film, Rolling Loud. The forthcoming film, which is inspired by the namesake music festival, will star Wilson and comedian Matt Rife.

The picture is described as: “An overprotective father (Wilson) who makes a bold parenting decision when he sneaks his 13-year-old son into the world’s largest hip-hop music festival, setting off a chaotic adventure with his reckless co-worker (Rife) and an eccentric festival volunteer as they navigate wild crowds, security, and their own family dynamics.”

With this information handy, attendees are interested to see what behind-the-scenes moments from Rolling Loud Miami makes it to the big screen.
