This unique blend of people creates an idyllic environment bursting with creativity. When entering the festival, I was first taken aback at the variety and number of art installations, paintings and live painters. A pyramid decorated with a dragon motif

Chance the Rapper continues to push musical boundaries with a new music video for 'Same Drugs' featuring a large cast of vocalists. The song features: Eryn Allen Kane, Yebba, John Legend, Francis Starlite and Macie Stewart. Chance the Rapper captures the imagination and hearts of viewers with a duet with an oversized puppet.
