Play That Back

Jay-Z turned the Roots Picnic into a Roc-A-Fella reunion with a headlining set that had Philly going crazy. He brought out Beanie Sigel, Freeway, Young Gunz, Memphis Bleek, Peedi Crakk, Mary J. Blige, and Meek Mill, giving fans one unforgettable moment after another. The crowd especially erupted when Beanie, Freeway, and Young Gunz hit the stage together.

For many fans, it felt like a rare glimpse back into one of hip hop’s most iconic eras. Was this one of the best festival performances of the year?
