It’s been more than a year since 2023’s Rolling Loud Thailand and Asian fans have been chomping at the bit to know who will be playing the biggest Hip Hop festival to hit Asia. For weeks, RL’s social media sites have been teasing people with questions like, “Who do you want to headline Rolling Loud Thailand in 2024?” while concertgoers keep screaming in the comments, “ANNOUNCE THE HEADLINERS, PLEASE!”

On June 11, Rolling Loud got down to business and announced four heavyweight acts - A$AP Rocky, Wiz Khalifa, Tyla, and Ski Mask the Slump God - and people are rightly going crazy. All artists are highly respected, have deep catalogs, rarely come to Asia, and will sell tickets. A$AP and Wiz are also both stoners who love to imbibe in the plant that may soon be illegal again in Thailand, but hopefully after November 22.

To call A$AP Rocky Mr. Rihanna would be doing him a disservice. As the de facto leader of the A$AP Mob, who came out of the underground in New York City in 2011, Rocky has made a lot of great songs and reimagined high fashion in his image. With classics like ‘Peso,’ ‘Wild for the Night,’ and ‘Praise the Lord,’ Rocky will be a hell of a headliner for Rolling Loud Thailand.

Wiz Khalifa took up Snoop Dogg’s mantle as a champion of marijuana in the mid-2000s and has rolled with it ever since. With an uncanny ear for making catchy hooks about women, weed, and mayhem, Wiz is a perfect headliner for Rolling Loud Thailand with tracks like ‘Black and Yellow,’ ‘Young, Wild & Free,’ and ‘We Dem Boys.’

Tyla is new on the scene as she makes what she calls Popiano, a combination of Pop music and Africa’s finest export, Amapiano. Her hit ‘Water’ was one of the songs of the summer last year and she’s got another hit on her hands now with ‘Jump’ featuring Gunna and Skillibeng. Also her songs ‘Art’ and ‘Truth or Dare’ have done big numbers as well. Tyla is definitely one of the hottest acts in the universe right now.

Ski Mask the Slump God used to roll with XXXTentacion and seems to be on or near the top of every Rolling Loud that happens around the world.

With these four announcements, fans know that Rolling Loud Thailand means business and are getting very excited for November.
