Coachella 2019

Cardi - Timberlake - Gambino would solidify this year as the worst group of headliners in coach history.

Edit: I just can’t see it.

Totally forgot that Macca has a new album coming out tbh.

Cardi does not headline Coachella before Nicki considering the respective albums they each released this year. 

To be fair, the solo stuff he put out in the 80s was pretty dope and forward-thinking and he's one of the great songwriters in pop music history, so I'll give it an earnest shot in a way that I didn't with like Roger Waters' new "If I Were God" bullshit that I treated like a beer break.

Cardi was also a "buy low" gamble by Goldenvoice that ended up being an absolute smash home run. Everything broke perfectly for GV - new album was a hit, couple other big singles were hits by Coachella, she was willing to invest in her stage setup, she was able to still do the shows with her pregnancy, etc.

Paying her $70k to be one of the most hyped sets of the weekend was a no-brainer, but would they pay her a few million to headline or sub if she never gets any hits bigger than the Invasion of Privacy singles? I wouldn't think so, so they definitely wouldn't book her blind, and its dependent on how successful she is on maintaining her moment as to whether she'll ever play again

This would be a nice out of nowhere booking that'd be pretty damn cool.

Cardi has ONE album, and two mixtapes, she should not even be considered for anything. She hasn't even dropped anything new since she played. One more album and some random features/songs and I could see her subbing, or waiting to drop 2 and then headline

I am still not sure what route they want to go with 3rd headliner. Do they want JT, Gambino, and another rapper/pop act (Kanye or Rihanna) or a rock act (Impala, Florence, Legacy)

I could see them going with no rock headliner and a couple bands to sub (vampire weekend, the national, the 1975) and some bands in 2nd and 3rd line

What way do you think GV will go

GV booking Kids See Ghosts is just a great thing.

just throwing it out there again that Raphael Saadiq was very good at Pitchfork this year and also it would be nice if other festivals booked him.

Not only was Kanye booked at a festival, but it was a GV festival. Hmmmmm.

I have heard 3 or 4 months, but not ever fully sure. 

If so.....then we may be looking at

KSG or Kanye, JT, and Gambino

Tyler the Creator puts this festival together (with a lot of help from GV) so not too surprising. But it is very cool to see Kids See Ghosts on a lineup poster. 

Depends on what the setlist looks like but its probably a shame hes touring on Kids See Ghosts. My guess: all 7 KSG songs, 5 of 7 or so Ye songs, 7-10 Cudi songs, 5-7 other Kanye songs
