To continue Day N Night Fest on Sunday (September 10th), 21 Savage hit the stage, sporting some black and white-overalls. The Issa rapper delighted the fans with his current smash hit “Bank Account,” as the crowd jumped up and down to “1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 M’s in my bank account…” 21 then proceeded with “X,” “Numb,” and “Famous.”
Following 21’s performance was rapper and producer, Russ, who came through in full effect. The New Jersey native performed songs from his debut album, There’s Really A Wolf, which included “Losin Control,” “Back To You,” “Got This,” and “What They Want.” Before ending his set, Russ had a very clear message for some people (peep the image below).
By 8pm, West Coast was in the building once again as YG and Kendrick Lamar took the stage to close out the night and round off the weekend. The Bompton rapper immediately lit the stage up with flames as he performed to “Why You Always Hatin’?”, “Who Do You Love?,” “My N**ga,” “Toot It and Boot It,” and of course, his anti-Donald Trump anthem “FDT.”
As a matter a fact, during “FDT” YG told the audience that despite having a sh*tty guy running the country, he was there to have a good time and made sure everyone there was going to do the same.
The ‘greatest rapper alive’ then took the stage right after YG as Kendrick Lamar had the entire stadium chanting to “DNA.”, “Loyalty.”, “Love.”, and “Humble.” The DAMN rapper also made sure his day 1 fans were present when he performed tracks from his albums, To Pimp a Butterfly, and Good Kid: M.A.A.D City.
And just like that, in a blink of an eye, the 2017 Day n Night Festival was over. From Chance the Rapper’s gospel-church set, to Travis Scott setting off flames, and Kendrick Lamar’s electrifying performance, Day N Night sure gave fans a nice blend of today’s Hip-Hop. Will 2018 match the hype? – Lupe Looove
