Summer Set

[Review] Summer Set 2016 brings unforgettable moments

The annual camping festival Summer Set returned for it’s fifth year to Somerset, Wisconsin. Summer Set was a weekend filled of memorable moments.

The camping festival brought out the best in some artist as tents filled the woods and camp grounds with festival goers burning through the three-day festival.

A six hours drive from Chicago, Summer Set brought the same electric and playful atmosphere that were accustomed. With many highlights from the summer coming from local Chicago festivals like Mamby on the Beach, the festival provided one of a kind experiences that made the six-hour drive worth it.

Day 1

The first day was stacked full of incredible performances throughout the day. Festival goers were able to check out early performances from the solid melodic sounds of Mielo. That also included the craziest that is the thrill ride of Porn and Chicken.

Flux Pavillion and Steve Aoki both respectfully, performed their best in recent years. Pavillion, usually a bit shy on the mic, was as vocal as the raving Summer Set crowd. Aoki a stable in electronic music, outdid himself in intensified energy packed set.

Notable performances came from Toronto rapper Tory Lanez. Lanez performed majority on his set in the crowd as dozens of fans rushed under him to hold him up. A true spectacle, Lanez gained many fans the first day due to his wild onstage and in the crowd pleasing antics.

The first night was closed off with Chicago’s favorite Chance The Rapper alongside with The Social Experiment. Seeing the top bill for the first night with other Chicago favorites in The Social Experiment was a real treat. They performed from Chance’s 10 Days, Acid Rap, and Coloring Book. The closing night was transformed into a Chicago listening party. Festival goers also heard records from the band's latest soul filled album“Surf”.

Seeing Chicago’s heavyweight perform a number of times didn’t account in his Summer Set performance. It was like seeing him for the first time as the showcased a number of crowd favorites from “Coloring Book”. Records including No Problem, Blessings, and Summer Friends helped Chance and The Social Experiment cement the first day into a night you couldn’t forget.


Chance The Rapper announces star studded festival

Chance The Rapper is hosting a star studded music festival for the Chicago stop of his “Magnificent Coloring World Tour”.

Reports from the Chicago Tribune suggest Chance The Rapper’s return to Chicago will be Sept. 25 at U.S. Cellular Field. It's the “first ever music festival at U.S. Cellular Field on Chicago’s South Side”.

The “Magnificent Coloring Day” festival will feature Chance The Rapper along with Skrillex, John Legend, Alicia Keys, Tyler the Creator, Lil Wayne and others. A countdown clock is currently counting down to purchase tickets later today.

Chance The Rapper’s relationship with U.S. Cellular Field and the Chicago White Sox is well known. The U.S Cellular Field has a 40,000 seating captivity. With selling out the Chicago Theater this past year, there’s no doubt Chance The Rapper and his guest will have no problem in selling out.

Furthermore, fellow Chicago rapper Common is hosting his returning Aahh Fest on the same weekend. His Aahh Fest is now a two-day festival. Last year he brought out Kanye West, Dave Chappelle, and Jennifer Hudson.

With both events going on that same weekend, fans will have the heavy burden in choosing which Chicago artist’s festival to attend.

Tickets for the “Magnificent Coloring Day” festival will be on sale on http://chanceraps.com/. Make sure you also check out Chance's latest latest album, Coloring Book

With little to no information on his latest mixtape Chance has left the world waiting for his next album. Chance has had quite a number of local blessings. Chance dropped one of the best Chicago music videos ever shot. The music video for his song “Angels” ft. Saba is one of the best videos to take place in Chicago, definitely taking advantage of the cityscape and signature ‘L’ train system.

Chance has been a staple of Chicago excellence as he continues to break records as an independent artist.
