Top Hip Hop Stories At Made In America 15' (So Far...)

Meek Mill brings out Nicki Minaj to perform “All Eyes One You”

Before Meek Mill’s performance at Made In America last night, there were rumors that Nicki Minaj would make a special appearance during Beyonce’s set. However, during Meek Mill’s set on the main stage, he brought Nicki out after playing a couple of her songs. There’s no confirmation on whether the rumors are true, but this move definitely made a difference if it was supposed to happen.

Freeway shows up during Fabolous’ performance.

There was a chance that this was going to happen, we just didn’t think it was happening during Fab’s set. Philadelphia-native, and former Roc-a-Fella artist, Freeway appeared in the middle of Fabolous’ set to perform a “What We Do” and “Flipside”.

Bassnectar brought out Dead Prez to perform “It’s Bigger Than Hip Hop”.

No one saw this coming. Producer Bassnectar has a sound that beautifully blends both EDM and Hip Hop, but no one would predict that he would bring Dead Prez out to perform “It’s Bigger than Hip Hop.” We should’ve had a hunch though, because Bassnectar was throwing some radical twists into his set, including a Martin Luther King speech over Kendrick Lamar’s single “Backseat Freestyle”.

IloveMakonnen was seen driving through festival grounds

Made In America is a place where celebrities will appear either on the stage or in the crowds, but ILoveMakonnen’s way of appearing is far more interesting than others. We caught the OVO Sound artist whipping through festival grounds on a miniature Cadillac, picking up several people including Vic Mensa after his main stage opener.
