HOT 97 Summer Jam

HOT 97’s Summer Jam music festival is the premier event for Hip Hop artists to be a part of.

Many of today’s biggest artists have performed on the Festival Stage including Kendrick Lamar, Fetty Wap, and Action Bronson, with Chance the Rapper, Tory Lanez, Curren$y and more slated to be there this year.

The winner of “Making the Stage” will not only perform at the hottest Hip Hop concert in the world, but will also win a recording and distribution contract from FilmOn & MondoTunes!

Who’s Next

Now through 4/18/16, potential performers can upload their 90-second demo video on
FilmOn.com/WhosNext.

HOT 97’s team of judges will narrow the submissions down to six acts to continue on to the semi-finals: performing at HOT 97’s Who’s Next events in April and May!

Who’s Next is the ultimate platform for up-and-coming artists  to showcase their talents for fans and industry tastemakers.

The monthly event has been the launching pad for stars such
as Drake, J. Cole, Travi$ Scott, and more.

The Who’s Next shows will be livestreamed on FilmOn.com, with two semi-finalists performing at each event.

Viewers will have the opportunity to vote for their favorite act following their performance; the top act from each showcase will move on to the finals in May.

“Our jocks have a history of breaking new artists,” states Pio Ferro, Program Director for HOT 97.

“HOT 97 has been first on the biggest names in Hip Hop including Jay Z, Rihanna, Nicki Minaj, Kanye and so many more.  It’s only fitting that we introduce new talent during our biggest event of the year, Summer Jam!”

Charlie Morgan, Market Manager for Emmis NY/HOT 97, adds, “Just as music reaches the farthest ends of the world, the ‘Making the Stage’ performances will go beyond the New York Tri-State area and around the globe via our partnership with FilmOn.

It’s truly a testament of how impactful the HOT 97 and Summer Jam brands are, and we’re excited to take the festival to the next level!”

HOT 97 Summer Jam takes place Sunday, June 5, 2016 at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, NJ featuring performances by Big Sean, Pusha T. & G.O.O.D Music, DJ Khaled & Friends, A$AP Rocky & A$AP Ferg, Bryson Tiller, and more!
