Gambino even being a headliner at all felt like a product of the unique moment when Atlanta was one of the top shows, he was the one piece of Solo that people actually liked, and he's got an album that's actually really good on top of it. No matter how good this new album is, it seems highly unlikely he'd ever recreate that momentum. I loved his set, but it feels like part of a zeitgeist that's passed.
I think most/all headliners going forward are going to fit the bill of either rare festival get (Bad Bunny, Frank Ocean) or GV promotion so they can market the artist at a higher caliber (Blackpink, Lana)
Gambino doesn't really do much - he will probably be all over the festival circuit next year and if AEG is already running a full arena tour for him, not sure why they'd bring him back
Still my favorite day of any Coachella ever: Let's Eat Grandma -> Yellow Days -> Turnstile -> JPEGMAFIA -> Kacey Musgraves -> Anderson Paak -> The 1975 -> Janelle Monae
So Gambino being not-so-great didn't bug me too much because everything else that day was amazing lol
And do we really think Gambino will headline again...sub...maybe...but headline...2019 was not that great...it was good. Is he the new RadioHead that can headline again after 5 years (2012-2017)?

No. Thats only Radiohead cause its almost a certainty with a new album that theyll headline again when its time.

Was it here or Reddit where people were seriously arguing that Radiohead can’t headline anymore. Sounds like a Reddit thing but wouldn’t be surprised if it was actually here.

you're probably thinking of one of my posts where I included them in a group of acts that should headline but that weren't very likely to get booked at Coachella unless we went to 6 headliners. I never said they weren't headliners but I still think it's unlikely they get booked as a headliner at Coachella in the 2020s era. It's nothing against Radiohead, I love Radiohead, it was more against Coachella not booking bands like Radiohead but everyone here picked one part of the point I was making and ignored the context.
The last couple years we basically have 4 headliners and 3 strong subs so I guess we'll see in a few more years if they ever get back in the studio.

If Coachella were still sticking to 3 headliners, I'd have doubts that they'd book Radiohead again but now with 4 headliners I could see them still giving them a spot while the other 3 are more current commercial artists.

I remember being at that Gambino set and the most fun was seeing Chance the Rapper pop up. Three months later and Chance the Rapper drops his damn album, I'm sure they thought the album would be good and he could have a high spot for 2020 if that had ever happened.
def picky enough to not let Gambino be lined up as the headliner on May 14 2024. obvi Doja and Gwen were last minute, not a fair comparison
It’s a pretty fair comparison when GV have a long history of waiting till the last minute to confirm headliners.
not really. the concept of taking a swing for a headliner is how u end up with both ppl like Bad Bunny, Frank Ocean, etc but also how u can end up with Doja cat if you miss. I want them to keep swinging
