Kid Cudi is embracing the Cali vibes…
The 41-year-old part-Mexican American Grammy-winning rapper, singer, songwriter, record producer, actor and fashion designer will perform at this year’s Cali Vibes, taking place on June 7 and 8 at Marina Green Park in Long Beach.
The four-year festival had been held in February in previous years, but is making the move toward summer time to “fully embrace California’s renowned sunshine while keeping the party going all weekend long.”
In addition to Kid Cudi, this year’s highly anticipated lineup features multi-platinum SoCal legends Cypress Hill, rapper Ludacris, Steel Pulse, Billboard chart-topping reggae acts Collie Buddz, Dirty Heads, Iration, Rebelution, Slightly Stoopid, J Boog, as well as other stars of the reggae, hip-hop, ska, and punk genres including DENM, Rome, Shwayze, The Elovaters, YG Marley, and many more!
Goldenvoice Talent Buyer, Gaston Leone said “as we celebrate the fourth year of Cali Vibes, our goal remains the same—crafting a lineup that reflects this scene’s evolution while staying true to its essence, set against the stunning backdrop of Long Beach.”
This year’s festival will be Stick Figure’s only Southern California performance of 2025. Slightly Stoopid will unite with their musical family and special guest performers for an unforgettable set with friends. Cypress Hill will take the stage and perform hits from their legendary, multi-platinum album Black Sunday alongside fan favorites from their extensive catalog.
Coming off an electric performance at Coachella 2024, YG Marley, the son of Lauryn Hill and grandson of Bob Marley, will showcase his unique musical talents while paying homage to his rich family heritage. In a highly anticipated moment, Rome, formerly of Sublime with Rome, will make his solo debut in his beloved hometown. Additionally, Landon McNamara, 11th all-time winner of the 2024 Eddie Aikau Big Wave Invitational (“The Eddie”), will take the stage, bringing his passion for surfing and music to new heights.
