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. The music video is a beautiful piece of visual art to connect with a soulful, self-destructive look at drug abuse. We suggest that any form of drug intake should be always used with caution. This video does walk a thin line between using puppets that would normally attract

Florence + The Machine closed down the Hangout Stage in grand fashion. Her set started early at 9:25 p.m. After four days of intense music, the festival celebrated their seventh year with fireworks and historic music on stage. Run the Jewels performed on the Surf Stage to a large audience. Their set was hardcore hip-hop that had political and intelligent storytelling. The crowd overall was the most energetic groups I have ever seen. On multiple occasions, I noticed groups of girls running for stage to stage. It takes real dedication to run to different stages. The next generation definitely

Saturday’s weather provided clear, sunny skies and energetic people from all over the country and globe to party at Hangout Fest. We arrived to the beach to catch Portugal. The Man performing on the Hangout Stage. We ate some food, and ventured over to Camp Hangout. It was a recreational area for people of all ages to interact with kickball, a fire pit, water guns and relaxing shade during the early hours of the day. I can’t remember the last time I played kickball, and being 31-years-old, I felt like a kid again at bat. I did fail to

The Hangout Music Festival officially kicked off with wet weather. This year, The Weather Channel’s forecast was almost dead on. 3 days prior to the event, a storm system was shown to be moving into the area. On Thursday evening the weather wrecked the lighting rig for The Weeknd. He did perform a short set of hits on stage later in the evening. Alabama Shakes and Walk the Moon each delivered in perfect weather Friday night. Hangout Fest did a good job at working with the weather, and getting the gates opened as soon as the storm cells and
