Summer Jam 2017 is going to be in the history books for sure. Not only did it sell out the entire Met Life Stadium to a crowd of 50 plus thousand, but it delivered as well. Even though a lot of fans were disappointed there was no live stream for this event, we still got you covered. Artist set the stage on fire and then brought others to help them do it. With were so many guest appearances and moments from the artist that we had to count own the hottest sets from the night. #5 Chris Brown Brings Out DMX to the Stage Chris Brown performed and danced with his usual captivating routine but, he did something no one seen coming. He brought out the legend, DMX. Crowd reactions went from shocked to crazy real fast. The Ruff Ryder performed his classics and reminded us that he still ain’t nothing to f*ck with!

#4 The Crowd Awes for Asahd Khaled DJ Khaled comes onto the stage performing his hit “All I do is Win” and new top charter “I’m the One.” We were hoping for him to bring out some of his featured artists from the songs, but we got something better. The crowd was presented in seeing his infant son and executive producer Asahd Khaled. Khaled presented his son in a Lion King style and it…
Another year has gone and another Summer Jam to put in history books for Hip Hop. We thought we have seen the last of Hip Hop artist go at each other, but we held our breath too soon. Remy Ma notoriously fired shots on the Hot 97 Summer Jam stage and brought every Woman MC without the last name Minaj to do it too. Hot 97 has been the platform for artists lashing out against others and calling them out in a memorable performance. From Eminem to Remy Ma, we create a timeline for notable Hip Hop beef and performances at Summer Jam. 2001: Jay Z Debuts “Takeover” and Fires Shots at Prodigy and Nas Jay-Z lit up the stage and what will go down as the most vicious Hip Hop beef between Nas and Jay. This was the date he had infamously released the track “Takeover” and did just that to the stage. The diss track was aimed at Mobb Deep’s Prodigy, but somehow Nas caught fire. Hitting us with the line, “Ask Nas, he doesn’t want it with Hov.” Making this one of the greatest beef between Hip Hop’s greatest. 2003: 50 Cent disses Ja Rule and Murder Inc. 50 Cent used his stage set to call out the Murder Inc rapper by displaying visuals of his “I Cry,” “Rainy Dayz,” and “Mesmerize”. Then asking the audience to identify “bitch-ass n*gga” in the videos. He then took shots at the Murder Inc CEO Irv Gotti (ouch) 2003: Eminem Smashes His Source Award Now, this…
Lil Yachty has been an overall crowd favorite for the festival stage at Summer Jam. The artists demanded nothing but the crowd’s full attention and he got exactly that. Returning to the crowd nothing but love and even jumping into the audience to finish off his set. Performing tracks off his new album “Teenage Emotions” with full energy and making sure everyone was hype along with him. One audience member even passed out during his set. To see some of his performance follow the tweet posted by Hot 97 below. @lilyachty HIT THE #SUMMERJAM – FESTIVAL STAGE!! pic.twitter.com/uMYpfKcM8V — HOT 97 (@HOT97) June 11, 2017
The “Selfish” singer took the Summer Jam festival stage and started off by wishing rapper Kodak Black a happy birthday and asked the crowd to sing for him. Also, he brought along twitter famous & young rapper, Matt Ox to the stage. He then followed with his new song, “Every day We Lit” to bring life to the crowd. Of course, the ladies love the singer and they especially enjoyed the “Unforgettable Remix.” Then he closed out his debut song and radio hit “Selfish”. Making sure his fans (mostly ladies) were satisfied.
