Lyrical Lemonade, the blog and media company founded by the big-deal music-video director Cole Bennett, has been putting on its Summer Smash festival in Chicago for the past few years, and this year’s lineup has just dropped. You could look at Summer Smash as a mini-Rolling Loud, a place where young and mosh-happy rap fans can go see their favorite insurgent acts without worrying about any dusty relics trying to recapture attention. This year, the fest has Kid Cudi, Future, and Playboi Carti as headliners. Like Rolling Loud, all three days also list big acts in the “special guest” spot: $UICIDEBOY$, Lil Uzi Vert, and “a very special Chicago guest.”

After taking 2020 off due to the pandemic, Riot Fest is returning to Chicago for 2021. My Chemical Romance were originally supposed to headline the festival in 2020 and then again in 2021, but after again postponing their reunion tour, they won’t play Riot Fest until 2022.
