Tory Lanez makes his debut on the Summer Jam Stadium Stage and he said: “Fellas hold on to your girl, I will steal her tonight.” He also asked the crowd to raise their hand if they were STD free. Anyways, the ladies still seemed to love him. Performing his crowd favorites of “Luv”, “Say it”, and his rendition of “Bump and Grind” saying he will f*ck you in his backseat. What else can we expect from R&B’s new bad boy?
Jidenna Reminds Us That He’s a Classy Man
The overall classic man opens up the stadium stage and brought us everything we expected from the West African singer. Bringing us soulful sounds from his latest album including the radio hit “Bambi”. But a lot of fans were disappointed that the always classy man was not in his usual suit and tie attire. He then closed the performance with a barbershop like Quartet. Again, how could we ever doubt that he is the classiest in the new gen of Hip Hop. See photos and tweet reactions below…

Future’s Management Addresses “Firestorm Of Unfortunate Events” From Cancelled Performances
If you were hoping to see Future perform last weekend at either the Roots Picnic event OR Summer Jam, you were severely let down. Future already vented his frustrations and now we hear from his manager, Anthony Saleh.

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.
