Both artist attended last years summer jam, but Lil Wayne was the headliner while Kanye showed up during the show and battled Swizz beatz in a beat battle.

Along with these superstars, R&B artist T-Pain, Ray J, Rihanna, Yung Berg, and Dream will also grace the stage this year, and to top things off their will also be a performance done by Public Enemy.

50, Jay and Nas should all perform since they are all on the cusp of a new album or to promote their current album…

Lil Wayne and Kanye should be a good show with both of them on the list.

I wonder what controversy is gonna spark from this years show

Yeah, one good show. I mean I couldnt think of anyone better than Yung(insult to my last name) Berg, Dream and Ray J, to pay to see at a concert. Really, Ray J!!?? and Yung Berg??!! Naw, not me. Sorry, but Bubblegum ‘rap’ is just not cool. But really only girls that went to see Hannah Montana are going to pay to see Wayne and the whole wack rapper convention.

Good to see Styles and Sheek gettin that show money.

Ray J “Brandy Brother” i pass, he think he the shit cause he fuck kim kardashian, I haven’t been happy with Wayne since D2, T-pain is annoying " he make good hooks" but here to much of him. Rihnana i pass to, but i would stick it to her. Who the fuck is Gym Class Hero, i pass. Style P and Sheek i fuck with, Public Enemy i fuck with. all together hell no unless somebody give them to me free so i can jump on some hoes, cause they be half naked walking through the shows trust me i seen it.

Summer Jam just ain’t the same any more man. I remember the days of Jay, Nas, Mobb Deep, Busta, X even Dipset…..all giving out legendary performances. I’m not knocking Wayne or Kanye, but Summer Jam ain’t shit no more.

reddyabout 1 year ago
Have you ever been to summer jam? Busta headlined last year and half the artists the artists arn’t announced like all of dipset last year. And Summer Jam gets bigger and better every year, Thats why its at Giants stadium now

dagodabout 1 year ago
Wayne headlined last year homie, not Busta. Read the article. I get what you saying about the special guest appearances but as far as the main headliners (Nas, Jay, X, Mobb Deep…..) those days are gone. That’s why I said Summer Jam ain’t shit no more.

I mean look at this years line up, except for maybe Kanye and the LOX the rest of the niggas are ass. Like Young Berg?? You can’t be fucking serious.

Its funny man but Hot 97 used to be the mecca of hip-hop radio. All this out of state dick sucking kind of angers me. I aint even from new york and Im mad because it used to have such an original and groundbreaking sound.

No wonder New York is slipping off the forefront. The problem is right there at home.

Just like detroit radio. That shit is ass. They show NO LOVE to local talent. Its all about advertising and income. WHat the fuck kind of summer jam dosnt have the king of new york headlining?

Summer jam iz always a good show…n gethip iz right, it use 2 showcase ny artist n out of towners would consider themselves honored 2 b on tha bill…but nobody out hea iz makin any real noise.nas has evry 1s attention but he doesn’t have any new material 2 really kill a summer jam show(b a nigger 2 iz hot but its mo like an intro or a teaser and wouldn’t shut dwn da show) jay might show up n surprise da crowd wit a couple joints off ag or sumthin but that’s just “hope” da dips r in shambles so they out…da gay unit aren’t doin anything that hot so they out…da only ny dudes that I think might get added 2 the show would be fab n busta. They both are actually hot right now. I dnt really like cheezy f. Right now but I hope 2 god he dnt pull no dumb shit n he does his show correct cuz if he think uk niggaz start gettin loose…wait till he c how it go dwn in ny if he act up! Oh yeah I went on the hot 97 website n got linked 2 ticketmaster n it said no tickets were currently available…idk what that’s all about

Word is borne Summer Jam is always a highlight of my summer, Cat’s out here know how it goes down B,…Plus every year there’s always some beef squashed or some popin off… Best summer Jams of all time has to be:
+2000:when Jay spanked 50 (I’m about a dollar what the fuck is 50 cent…WOW the crow went crazy).
+2001:when Jay ripped prodigy “Back in 88, when I was pushing weight, you was balarina, I got you pictures a seen ya”…and showed his picture on the big screen In some ballerina outfight ha ha ha
+2003: nas made you look remix with Luda & Kiss,…Shit was crazy, he spit Either, then went to Made you look & kiss & Luda came out shit was CRAZY.
This year looks water down, I’m only bangin out to the LOX, maybe Kanye but after that, shiiit it’s game time nigga, so many fine honeys & quick jump offs are in sight,…Ooowie

Different article, same haters. Looks like a decent lineup. Good to see PE getting that shine. Judging from their past shows, they will put on a good performance no doubt. Since the Carter 3 comes out the week after Summer Jam, Wayne will probably perform exclusives from the album, so that should be hot. Kanye is giving out of this world performances on the Glow in the Dark tour, so expect big things from him too. And the Lox are a big factor in New York hiphop, so they will indeed get alot of love. All those RnB acts will keep the women entertained. So it looks like it will be a good show. Plus, there are always suprises at Summer Jam.

I wonder if ticket sales will be down or not because in the Uk Jay-Z is or was going 2 peform at some UK place where there is mostly rock and Gym Class Heros are not bad and all but the Genre of the music might not appeal to some people.Also what charismatic said about a 11yer old boi throwing a rock at a tour bus has happened 2 Soulja Boi u can read 2 both of these things tht i Said or commeented w/e on Jay-Z and Soulja Boi at CelleBully and also about the Sean Bell thing I expect their 2 be riots everywhere in NYC like the Rodney King thing in L.A.
. The last thing i want 2 say tht no matter the color the race of a cop their are bad cops who are the same color as me u any1 else in this world or a law tht is stupid or worng like Uk has a law tht says>> London Hackney Carriages (taxis/cabs) must carry a bale of hay and a sack of oats.Just listen 2 Lupe Fiasco Handcuffs
