It’s going to be a very long time until we see Tory Lanez on the stage again. Over the past two years, the rapper hasn’t performed many sets after Megan Thee Stallion accused him of shooting her. Though he maintained his innocence since authorities laid charges, the evidence suggested otherwise. Following a contentious trial, a jury found Tory Lanez guilty on all charges related to the Megan Thee Stallion shooting. Since then, he’s remained behind bars until his sentencing date.
However, the rapper pushed back the date for his sentencing on several occasions. Most recently, the judge approved the request to delay sentencing to file a motion for a new trial. With a roster of accomplished lawyers, including attorneys that previously represented Casey Anthony and Suge Knight, making up his legal team, the rapper hopes to appeal his conviction. However, until the judge made a decision on his motion, he will stay in prison.
It appears that Rolling Loud felt as though Tory would beat the case. Last year, they scheduled the rapper to perform at Rolling Loud California. The festival takes place this weekend with Playboi Carti, Travis Scott and Future serving as the headliners and Lil Wayne as the special guest. However, Rolling Loud hasn’t updated their website yet and Tory Lanez remains on the bill. The Canadian rapper was scheduled to perform on Sunday with his name sitting on the second line, between Lil Uzi Vert and Moneybagg Yo.
Unless Tory’s legal team pulls off the impossible, there’s a very minimal chance that we’ll see him take the stage this weekend. After all, Rolling Loud does warn fans in the fine print that cancellations are expected. “Opening acts, as well as festival performers, are subject to change or cancellation at any time without notice. No refund will be owed if an opening act or festival performer is changed or cancelled,” it reads. Rolling Loud hasn’t unveiled the official set times which will be updated to reflect the current status of the line-up. We’ll keep you posted if anything changes but if the plan was to catch Tory this weekend, you’ll certainly be disappointed.
Rolling Loud founders Matt Zingler and Tariq Cherif are truly looking to make the staple multi-day music festival a global phenomenon. As if organizing the three events this year, including Rolling Loud Los Angeles (set for March), Rolling Loud Thailand (scheduled for April), and Rolling Loud Portugal (scheduled for July), wasn’t enough, the company has announced yet another festival.
Making its inaugural debut in Germany, Rolling Loud is looking to bring its signature energy to the area from July 7th to July 9th. It’s set to be headlined by Wizkid (on July 7), Kendrick Lamar (July 8), and Travis Scott (July 9). Rolling Loud Germany will be held in Messe München, in the heart of the Bavarian capital, Germany’s third-largest city.
Other notable acts slated to perform include Gucci Mane, Lil Uzi Vert, Latto, Metro Boomin, Kodak Black, Joey Badass, Coi Leray, GloRilla, and Lola Brooke.
Although Rolling Loud Germany isn’t set to place until the summer, tickets for the festival will go on sale to the public on Monday, February 27, at noon central European time (6 a.m. ET/3 a.m. PT). To sign up or purchase tickets, visit germany.rollingloud.com.

It’ll take place at Legend Siam in Pattaya on April 13-15, 2023; it’s the first time ever occurring in Thailand. Ticket information can be found here.
Ironically, DaBaby is performing at Rolling Loud Thailand, considering he claimed that his notorious performance at Rolling Loud Miami in 2021 cost him $100 million because of his homophobic remarks that lost him fans and brand deals. “I ain’t into all of the conspiracy theories, this and that,” he said on Hot97’s Ebro In The Morning show. “Until you see it really cost a n****s a $100 million within a year’s span.”

They’re in a much better place these days, but there was a time when Offset and Cardi B’s marriage was on the rocks. The “Up” rapper even filed for divorce and was ready to leave her husband; however, Offset wasn’t ready to call it quits. In 2018, Cardi was in the middle of performing her Rolling Loud set when the Migos rapper interrupted with a surprise appearance.
He made his way to the stage with huge rose-filled signs that spelled, “Take Me Back Cardi.” It was the beginning of their reconciliation, but for 92.3 The Real’s J. Cruz, it was a disastrous occasion.
J Cruz stars on The Cruz Show featured on the iconic Los Angeles radio station. He shared his story on-air: apparently, Cruz was all set to get married on stage. That is until Offset made his huge display, thwarting everyone’s plans.
“Since I can’t tell Cardi, I’ll tell you,” he expressed to GloRilla during an interview. “So, I was supposed to get married on stage at the show. Rolling Loud. And that’s where her and Set were going through it, and Offset surprised her on stage, with like, a stage full of roses.”
“So, I was supposed to get married on stage, and since that happened, I was not allowed to do it,” Cruz also said. “I was bumped and I had my whole family there. My wife in her dress, I flew in family members. Mother, father, my mother-in-law, my father-in-law, my sister, my siblings were all there for this big moment.”
“And it was bumped because Offset decided to surprise Cardi with roses.“
When someone asked how exactly the public wedding was axed, Cruz joked, “Because I’m not Offset.”
Cruz admitted that it was an embarrassing fiasco and was able to laugh at needing therapy afterward. Check out J Cruz sharing his story and Offset’s Rolling Loud moment with Cardi above.
Cardi B, Travis Scott, and Chris Brown will headline the inaugural Rolling Loud Thailand festival. Cardi B will make her first appearance on the Rolling Loud stage since her headlining performance at Rolling Loud Los Angeles in 2018.
In addition to Offset, Rae Sremmurd, A$AP Ferg, Waka Flocka Flame, Fat Joe, and Rick Ross, the roster includes Asian superstars BIBI, Jay Park, JESSI, Teriyaki Boyz, and many more.
Rolling Loud Thailand makes its debut at Legend Siam in Pattaya on April 13 – 15, 2023, bringing three action-packed days of hip-hop at a picturesque coastal locale.
This year, Rolling Loud will also hit Portugal. Rolling Loud Portugal’s second edition will include headliners Travis Scott, Playboi Carti, and Meek Mill on the beaches of Portimo from July 5-7. Plus, Lil Uzi Vert, GloRilla, Central Cee, Lil Durk, Latto, YG, Aitch, Eem Triplin, and many more perform! You can learn more about that here.

Here’s some stunning news: Future is not headlining Rolling Loud in Portugal this year. It’ll be the first Rolling Loud to not feature Future as a headliner since the 2021 New York show, as he was billed on every event in 2022 and the upcoming return to Los Angeles this March. Instead, the Portugal show this year will be headlined by returning RL mainstay Travis Scott, Playboi Carti, and Meek Mill. It’ll take place the weekend of July 5-7 at Portimão, Praia Da Rocha Beach.
Also included on the lineup are such names as Central Cee, GloRilla, JID, Joey Badass, Kodak Black, Latto, Lil Durk, Lil Uzi Vert, NLE Choppa, Ski Mask The Slump God, Soulja Boy, and YG. Local acts like Wet Bed Gang (no comment) are also included, and a bunch of the lineup is dominated by British rap standouts like Aitch, Digga D, Sainté, Tion Wayne, and more.

Salt Bae’s faced extensive backlash since the World Cup. Now, one of hip-hop’s premium festivals is banning him from attending their upcoming L.A. event.
Rolling Loud issued a statement on Friday announcing the ban of the chef from their March festival in Los Angeles. Though it’s likely just a joke, Rolling Loud joins other establishments in barring the viral figure from attending their events.
“We have also banned Salt Bae from Rolling Loud LA 2023 in March,” a statement from their Instagram reads.
The statement comes after the U.S. Open Cup banned him from attending the finals in 2023. “Salt Bae is hereby banned from the 2023 U.S. Open Cup Final,” they wrote.
Soccer fans have expressed their frustration with him for storming the pitch after Argentina’s win. He held and kissed the World Cup while pestering a slew of the team’s players, like Messi, for pictures.
The World Cup finally responded to Salt Bae’s actions in a statement on Thursday where they denied allowing him onto the pitch. They explained that only World Cup winners and heads of state have the authority to touch the trophy during the closing ceremony.
“Following a review, FIFA has been establishing how individuals gained undue access to the pitch after the closing ceremony at Lusail Stadium on 18 December,” said a statement from the world soccer’s governing body. They said they will be taking “appropriate internal action.”
So far, Salt Bae hasn’t responded to any of the controversy surrounding his actions on Sunday. However, he continued to post a string of photos and videos on Instagram from his trip to the World Cup. World soccer’s governing body didn’t suggest that they’d ban Salt Bae, though it seems like he’s happy with getting as close as he did to the trophy.
We’ll keep you posted on any more updates surrounding Salt Bae at the World Cup.
With Rolling Loud’s return to Los Angeles right around the calendar corner, the festival recently revealed its lineup featuring headliners Future, Playboi Carti, and Travis Scott. This week, though, the fest’s organizers added someone to the list of people who can’t go to the 2023 event: Nusret Gökçe, aka viral chef Salt Bae. Jumping on the recent announcement that FIFA would be blocking his attendance from future events after his antics at the recently concluded World Cup in Qatar, the Rolling Loud Twitter account wrote, “We have also banned Salt Bae from Rolling Loud LA 2023 in March.”

Of course, it’s pretty obvious that the statement is more of a joke than anything else. The Rolling Loud social media manager has proven to have a pretty wicked sense of humor — even razzing a rapper whose stage was only attended by 13 people — so it’s probably just a reference to all the other events showing Gökçe the proverbial red card for wandering onto the pitch after Argentina’s World Cup final victory over France to kiss the trophy last Sunday. FIFA issued the salty chef with a ban from the 2023 US Open Cup final as it considers what other actions it will take against him.
