I think it's time to book The Alchemist. No idea what stage he would play, but it's time. End of 2nd line? The most legendary hiphop producer catalog in my opinion.

The Alchemist cant even get first line at Pitchfork this year. Probably the 3rd line.
despite me not liking Blink u guys realize that first Blink show in nine years or gorillaz with bad bunny is light years diff than Muse doing the same show u could have seen at any time in the last 10 years

Latto and GloRilla being 3rd liners makes me feel Ice Spice will be billed in that same area unless she consistently makes big noise leading into next year.
I think Ice Spice is already at their level, if not further now.
I dunno, like I've mentioned before I don't think there are any set rules for what RTTD has to be, besides just being a fourth headliner basically. Karol G coming back again is pretty soon but she's also blown up a lot since then.
I thought about Rage picking their opener again but I struggled to come up with names big enough that weren't RTJ since I'm not sure Coachella would be too keen on repeating RTJ again, if RTJ5 is even on the horizon. Originally I was going to put Deftones third on that day and have them open for Rage with Zach playing before Deftones or after Rage but I scrapped that idea.
I mentioned this in the previous page, but Tool or NIN seem like suitable subs that fit the "previously headlined but too small to headline now" mold that Gorillaz and Bjork played this year.
NIN I could see subbing but Tool is still too big for that.

He’s a great producer but that’s a bold opinion I think very few would share with you.
Main Stage: Anderson .Paak Outdoor: Boygenius Sahara: Blink-182 Old Mojave: New Order New Mojave: Kim Petras Gobi: Caroline Polachek Yuma: Bicep Sonora: Guided By Voices Do Lab: Tale of Us
I easily give Ice Spice the edge over GloRilla for sure, but what’s more important is she’s been big for awhile whereas Glo was probably scooped up early, maybe even before Tomorrow 2. GV has to get Ice Spice after several massive songs.
Both have a more authentic wave than Latto. People like Latto songs but people LOVE GloRilla and ice spices persona.
I cannot see Ice Spice on the third if they are trying to secure her this summer. Tail end of the second like where Megan was on the 2020.

Maybe not the best, but at least the most memorable ones
Coachella - Queens of the Stone Age Outdoor - Justice Gobi - Carpenter Brut Mojave - Carly Rae Jepsen Sahara - Porter Robinson (first time seeing Worlds and it got me into raving for a bit lol) Yuma - SOPHIE Sonora - Viagra Boys

I think it depends how her year goes; this year Ice and Glo are on basically identical levels booking-wise, exactly the same billing at Rolling Loud and essentially the same at Broccoli City Fest. If her album pops, def 2nd line, but I could see third line if it just does fine.
Coachella: Sia (Hot Chip, Bjork, Blur, Postal Service) Outdoor: Sigur Ros (Jamie xx, Phoebe Bridgers, Chemical Brothers) Gobi: Hot Chip (Deafheaven, Disclosure, Dinner Party) Mojave: Underworld (Caribou, James Blake, How to Destroy Angels, Fred again..) Sahara: Underworld (100 Gecs, Moby) Sonora: Ela Minus (Alex G, Nia Archives, the Breeders, Scowl) Yuma: Jayda G (Four Tet, the 2 Bears, Jamie xx, Purple Disco Machine)
Maybe not the best, but at least the most memorable ones

I really wanted to see Carpenter Brut but the conflict sucked. luckily I saw them at the localchella show because it was great! I just listened to the bootleg yesterday, too!
My Best of/Favorites at Yuma Shortlist* lol (not in order):
Jon Hopkins (Top 5 finalist) MK (Top 5 finalist) Ben Klock (Top 5 finalist) BICEP (Top 5 finalist) Peggy Gou (don’t make me choose which one for the last spot in my finalists lol) Solumon (don’t make me choose which one for the last spot in my finalists lol) Marcel Dettmann (don’t make me choose which one for the last spot in my finalists lol) Avalon Emerson The Black Madonna Motor City Drum Ensemble Talaboman
The Longerlist HM: John Talabot Sasha Ben UFO Bedouin Michael Mayer
*Only been 3 years at Yuma but went both weekends in the last 2. And maybe, those are arguably, the GOAT years of Yuma. The quality in the Yuma lineup can make or break if I am going or not as it is my only oasis right now at this new Coachella.

Coachella: Kanye West 2011 Outdoor: Arcade Fire 2005/David Byrne 2018 Sahara: Daft Punk 2006 Mojave: Robyn 2011 (HM Cut Copy 2011, M83 2012) Gobi: Todd Terje 2015 Yuma: Duke Dumont 2015 (have only been in for a few shows to be fair) Sonora: n/a (I just rarely seem to get in there given conflicts and scheduling, though there was a ton I was sad to miss this year)
Biggest Coachella Regrets: Not going to the years when Blur, The Postal Service, Beck, Stone Roses, Sufjan Stevens, The Knife, M83, The Cure, Duran Duran, Paul McCartney (maybe not with these last 3 as I went to see them in their own shows at Las Vegas, Atlantic City, Florida and Atlanta that year) & company played. I also missed so many other in those lineups. Will never regret not going 2019-2023. Thought 2008 and/or 2010 and/or 2012 SS Coachella and/or 2015 were my last though lol.
2005, musical tastes shifted to indie, singer-songwriter stuffs, hello Coachella: Missed 2005 because I got to discover Coachella only a few days before it happened on a print ad in SPIN music magazine at Borders or Barnes & Noble. My jaw dropped when I saw New Order and Coldplay & among many others I love headlining/playing lol. I found out online that passes were sold-out or for camping or both plus I am dumb or don’t trust resellers at that time. And I don’t know how to camp in music festival so I went on to booked a hotel the following year. I always camped after that. I was born and always into Brit indie-pop and IDM but it’s Archer Prewitt, Sufjan Stevens, Arcade Fire and Belle & Sebastian in 2005 that really did it for me to go all the way for indie music and Coachella no matter what it takes. I was even more blown away when the lineup dropped in 2006 for the cheap passes lol I paid for.

He’s a great producer but that’s a bold opinion I think very few would share with you.
He may not have the mainstream hits as a Dre, Kanye, Metro But his catalog is by far the deepest I would say
As far as festival placement of course I wouldn't expect him to pull a huge crowd since he's more lowkey, but yeah his catalog is pretty legendary

Honestly I understand his catalogue and have nothing but the utmost respect for him, but from a "draw" to see live perspective I think you could get this guy at the tail end of the third or even fourth lines and put him in the Gobi and he would be fine.
Gobi: Will always and forever be a tie between, Amy Winehouse and Jose Gonzalez (both in 2007) - too many HMs
Mojave: too hard to choose one/5: New Order then Editors, Klaxons, The Fratellis, Ratatat, Hot Chip, Goldfrapp, Sia, Spiritualized, Animal Collective (of 2006-2008), Fever Ray, Yeasayer, Beach House, Lucero, Grizzly Bear, Julian Casablanca (2010), Stromae, Caribou, Kasabian, Panda Bear… back to back to back to back unforgettable performances and the very best of indie-pop music… at this time, stick to 3? Klaxons, Sia and Fever Ray’s turns lol
Sahara: Daft Punk, Aphex Twin and Royksopp HMs: Orbital, Plastikman, Faithless, LCD Soundsystem, The Rapture, Modeselektor, Ratatat, Justice… it is not what you think if I am forced to pick one, Royksopp!
Outdoor: just like in Mojave… tough, I give up: Damien Rice, Fleet Foxes, Belle & Sebastian, The Go! Team, Mogwai, Air, Vampire Weekend, Sonic Youth, Jarvis Cocker, Metric, The Swell Season, Serj Tankian, Echo & the Bunnymen, The Avett Brothers, Band of Horses… if you really want one, okay fine, Damien Rice
Coachella: just as way too many and I can’t pick one/5: Massive Attack, Arctic Monkeys, Bjork, Muse, Arcade Fire, Roger Waters, Kraftwerk-> Portishead -> Prince; Father John Misty -> The xx -> Radiohead; Sigur Ros -> Franz Ferdinand -> Depeche Mode (had to leave this one earlier as planned) - HMs: AC/DC, Beyoncé, Eminem, Tool, Saint Motel, St. Lucia, Regina Spektor, Spoon, Pavement, The Raconteurs -> The Verve…pick one?, atm, Arctic Monkeys!
Sonora: It was a cool place, TBD 😂

Saying alchemist is the best producer or favorite is a plausible opinion. Definitely not the most legendary. Larry June brought him out at rolling loud and no one knew anything lol
