Responding passive aggressively since 1987



I’ve seen this video from Rolling Loud last weekend floating around, and it feels like a good time to share a conversation I had last year. I was talking with a notable festival promoter last fall who directly told me they had largely stopped booking rap and hip-hop acts for one major reason: insurance. According to them, many insurance companies were dramatically increasing premiums whenever those artists were on the lineup because they viewed the associated crowd risk as “significantly higher” than other genres of music. Those aren’t my words…that was directly from someone dealing with (and paying for) the logistics + insurance coverage of events. So if you start seeing certain artists slowly disappear from mixed-genre festivals or specific markets, situations like the above are absolutely part of the equation whether people realize it or not.
