Flog Gnaw: Tyler's Musical Playground
Lineup's ghosting us, so we're making our own fantasy festival
Camp Flog Gnaw celebrates 10 years of the festival this year. The music festival was created by Tyler, the Creator and is held outside of Dodger Stadium with a full carnival experience. This is the event where, way before "Not Like Us," Drake got booed off the stage before he finished a song. If the last two sentences didn't help bring you up to speed, that's fine—peep game and tap in!
The festival is 2 days, Saturday and Sunday. For the over-25 crowd, this is clutch; a 3-day festival always feels like one day too many (iykyk). The atmosphere is 1 of 1. The view in the background is the mountains with the Hollywood sign, with legendary Dodger Stadium right next to you. The entire place is laid out with carnival rides, games, merch stands including giant Golfwang and Converse tents. Surrounded by other Tyler fans and music lovers, it's one of the most relaxed music festivals I have ever been to. For the most part, everyone is there because of the music and the love of music. Alright, you get the picture—it's a dope time.
I am on here yapping because there is still no lineup for Camp Flog Gnaw. I just want to take guesses on who might be playing. That was a long-winded intro for a list of artists, but I am a blogger, which means I am down for a good yap.
Anyway, here is a list of 5 artists I think would go well with the Flog Gnaw vibe:
Jordan Ward- Tyler has mentioned him as an artist he enjoys, and he just released music.
Megan Thee Stallion- She just had an album come out and is one of the hottest rappers out right now. Last year had Ice Spice; I think Meg would kill it.
Ray Vaughn Ray- is a local LA hip hop artist who performed at the pop-up concert and has been releasing banger after banger all year.
Paris Texas- They should just be there every year at this point. I think it's been 3 years already, and their music is amazing.
Vince Staples- He is from LA, dropped an AOTY candidate this year, and is friends with Tyler.
Feel free to comment below who you would like to see or talk about your Camp Flog Gnaw experiences. Peace!
