Central Cee was the perfect end to the first day and took the stage for his India debut by opening with ‘Doja’. The UK star commanded the stage and performed ‘Which One’, ‘Sprinter’, and ‘Band4Band’, as the crowd matched his energy bar-for-bar.
For Day 2, the energy was a buzz as DIVINE debuted ‘Walking on Water’ live for the first time. Nav surprised the crowd by bringing Gurinder Gill, and when he performed ‘Lemonade, the entire venue erupted in a singalong. Don Toliver kept the momentum rolling, gliding through hit after hit while the crowd danced and sang along.
The debut edition of Rolling Loud India culminated with Karan Aujla becoming the first Indian artist to headline a Rolling Loud festival. He brought out NAV to premiere and perform the ‘Daytona Remix’ live for the first time, sending the crowd into a frenzy.
Indian and South Asian talent, including Wild Wild Women, Gurinder Gill, AR Paisley, Sambata, and Yung Raja, delivered some of the festival’s most hyped performances, bringing authentic Indian hip-hop culture to fans on a global stage.
About the History of Rolling Loud
Founded in 2015 by childhood friends and Miami natives, Matt Zingler and Tariq Cherif, Rolling Loud was born out of a flourishing South Florida hip-hop community that the pair cultivated through years of concert promotions. In a time when live hip-hop wasn’t being taken seriously by the pop music machine, the festival expanded from Miami to Los Angeles, New York, San Francisco and Australia within 5 years and to Portugal, The Netherlands, Germany, Austria, Toronto, Thailand and India within 10 years. It has evolved into a 360º lifestyle brand admired by fans, artists and brands alike, while and cultivating hip-hop culture around the world.
