The Summer Stage Festival crowd lets out a round of boos after the Harlem rapper set was cut short. It was either a time shortage or mic difficulties. It seemed the crowd was more upset that the New York representative didn’t get to finish his set. Either way, he left with a more memorable reaction.
(Video) Future Explains Summer Jam Absence
Yesterday’s rain made for quite the nightmare at Hot 97’s annual Summer Jam concert, forcing them to cancel the Festival Village stage, cut multiple acts from the main stage (Kid Ink, Tinashe and Young Thug) and push back the 6pm start time to 8:30pm. Despite the initial setbacks, the show finally went on around 9pm, and fans loved the performances from Uncle Murda and Maino (with surprise guests 2 Milly), Bryson Tiller (with surprise guest Fabolous), G.O.O.D. Music featuring Kanye West, Pusha T, Big Sean, 2 Chainz, Travi$ Scott and Desiigner, and Terror Squad featuring Fat Joe, Remy Ma and Tony Sunshine (with surprise guests Ashanti and French Montana)…but then another setback occurred. Unfortunately, a fight broke out in the audience, causing the show to be placed on a security hold for at least 30 minutes while police got it under control. This caused the show to be pushed back further, and for those of you who don’t know – there are fines in the 6-figure range for going even ONE MINUTE over the curfew set by the venue. Hot 97 had already gotten clearance to go to 1:30AM (way past the usual 11pm curfew, and this was because the show had to start so late,) so they couldn’t push any further. Unfortunately, this meant more people had to be clipped.
