Kendrick Lamar Hangout Music Festival
May 18th
By Sowmya Krishnamurthy
“This will be the livest motherfucking show,” Kendrick Lamar said at one point during his set at the Hangout Music Festival today. The Compton native began his show with the fitting shout out to his coast, “Westside, Right On Time.” “Y’all motherfuckers ready to party tonight?” K. Dot asked the bikini-clad crowd. Wearing a polo shirt peppered with birds and camouflage pants, the rapper then went into “Hol’ Up.” The rapper mixed classic cuts like “P&P” from his earlier days and more recent fare. “Anybody been listening to me since day one?” he asked.
Kendrick kicked things up several notches with his verse on A$AP Rocky’s “Fuckin’ Problems,” which the audience helped him perform, and kept things turned up with “R.I.P.” Remembering where he came from, Kendrick got contemplative for a moment with “A.D.H.D.” and gave props to his Section 80 mixtape, which he shared got him on the Hangout stage.
Finally, Kendrick came full circle with music from his debut album good kid, m.A.A.d. city, from the pounding “Backseat Freestyle” to “Bitch Don’t Kill My Vibe.”
The Hangout Music Festival, taking place in Gulf Shores, Alabama, features acts from a variety of genres. Public Enemy rocked the stage today as did The Roots. Yesterday, Macklemore and Ryan Lewis brought Seattle flavor to the beachfront concert. Tomorrow, acts like Imagine Dragons and singer Ellie Goulding are expected to hit the stage. Fans have been especially excited for Kendrick’s set. “To everyone at The Hangout seeing Kendrick Lamar perform today: soak it up because your life only goes downhill from here,” tweeted one this weekend and another added, “Kendrick Lamar is killing it” during the show.

The Roots Get Soulful At Hangout Music Festival
May 18th

The Roots kept the hip-hop vibes going on the second day of the Hangout Music Festival. Black Thought, QuestLove and The Legendary Crew’s band took over Gulf Shores, Alabama with their trademark hip-hop soul. Accompanied by keys, bass and even a tuba, the Philly-bred collective kicked crowd favorites like “You Got Me” and the sultry “Break You Off” as well as cuts like “Get Busy.”
The Roots even remixed Damien Marley’s “Welcome to Jamrock” with “Welcome to Hangout.” “Thank you Hangout Festival for showing us a tremendous amount of love. Yours truly, the legendary, hardworking,” said Black Thought, fittingly outfitted in three quarter pants. The Roots frontman then shouted out host Sway, who was enjoying the set. “Whattup Sway?”
Hip-hop has had a major presence at the festival. Earlier today, legendary group Public Enemy performed songs like “911 is a Joke” and “Can’t Truss It.” Yesterday, Macklemore and Ryan Lewis kicked things off with “Thrift Shop” as well as “Same Love” and “Crew Cuts.” At one point, Macklemore jumped into the beach-loving crowd to ride an inflatable whale.
It was the first time Macklemore and Ryan Lewis were performing in Alabama and the two shared with MTV that they were having tons of fun. “You know what? [I] Immediately hit the catering … catfish!” said Macklemore about how he was spending his downtime. “You can’t go wrong with catered catfish at a festival. It came with some sauce, the sauce was great. That was amazing and then we walked out and there’s hammocks and I fell asleep for like two hours.”
There’s more hip-hop to come. The ubiquitous Kendrick Lamar will perform tonight. His performance and all of the sets can be streamed live online. MTV, VH1 and CMT will be on the ground at Hangout 2013, bringing you all the latest news, interviews, performances and more from the Shores.

Jay’s fourth album Neon is due June 25 featuring Busta Rhymes and Ace Hood.
“The album is the best piece of work I’ve done to date, without a doubt in the last 10 years,” Jay told Rap-Up TV. “This album is a mixture of R&B, of pop, of some rock influence as well, of hip-hop influence. It’s just all of the great genres that I love and I grew up on in one. The songwriting and production on this album is superb. It really took us a long time to get it right, but I’m so proud of it.”
