Some of those same acts will be performing at this year’s Made in America Festival.

Rapper and business mogul Jay-Z founded Made in America in 2012 and it has since grown into one of the most popular music festivals in the country.

One of the headlining acts for the show will be Tyler, the Creator, who has enjoyed plenty of success in the last year. In 2021, he released CALL ME IF YOU GET LOST which was met with widespread acclaim from critics and fans (including myself).

In 2022, he took home the Grammy for best rap album, beating out artists such as J. Cole, Kanye West and Nas.

He also went on a nationwide tour, (that I’m still bitter I was not able to make), that brought in over $32 million over several months, according to Billboard.
