HOT 97 Summer Jam at MetLife Stadium

Leave a comment

Sunday, June 2, 2019, at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey, HOT 97 Summer Jam is the event of the year where historic moments are made and Hip Hop music & culture are celebrated!

Every year they bring the hottest names to New Jersey’s MetLife Stadium and this year is no exception. #HipNJ’s Lisa Marie Latino meets up with two familiar voices, HOT97’s DJ Wallah and Miabelle to discuss this years’ line up.

This year’s Summer Jam performers include Grammy Award-winning artist and Bronx native, Cardi B, rapper, songwriter, and activist, Meek Mill, two-time platinum selling Hip Hop group, Migos, singer-producer, Tory Lanez, XXL Magazine Freshmen alum, A Boogie, and more.

This years line up has more to offer, as well. As Wallah puts it, “this year’s line up is full of artists that are buzzing throughout the internet and online…Summer Jam got the artists that we really want to connect with this year.”

Additional performers include Rich the Kid, Funk Flex & the Heavy Hitters, Davido, Casanova, Melii, City Girls, Megan Thee Stallion, and , as well as numerous surprise guests, a staple element of Summer Jam.

HOT 97 also has a huge opportunity for new artists, with their Who’s Next Destination Summer Jam contest. Artists can submit tracks, climb the leaderboard and hopefully win the Grand Prize of opening up at Summer Jam Festival Village Stage!

Tickets are on sale now at hot97.com/summerjam and all Ticketmaster platforms. They are not available at MetLife on the day of the event, so make sure to snag yours as soon as possible!

#NoFoodComa – Tasty Recipes for Memorial Day Weekend

By Beth Nydick

Whenever I see anyone in the armed forces out at a restaurant or getting coffee, I honestly get choked up, I say thank you for their service and buy them their coffee/meal. I feel like it means something, it says to them that they do make a difference and those of us at home care. My grandfather served in WW2 and every year he would stand outside the supermarket selling little red poppies to raise funds for veterans. He passed in 1991 and every year since then I buy out whatever the veteran has at my local store. Think about buying some as you go and buy your groceries. This year, let’s all be grateful that there are brave men and women that stand up for our freedoms. Happy Memorial Day!

Hip List: Anatta Marketplace

#HipNJ‘s Maria Falzo is introducing you to the Anatta Marketplace, a global online marketplace that connects small farmers to consumers we are loving as part of this month’s #HipList!

With a product range consisting of essential oils, spices, teas and even waters,  there is something for every wellness-lover. 

Beyond the products, Anatta is doing so much more for the farmer’s behind the ingredients. They are allocating funds and resources to communities and working to help each one prosper by helping them achieve their specific goals. 

With every purchase, you receive the information about the specific farm and farmer that worked so hard to bring the product and its ingredients to life. You’ll be able to associate a name, a face and a story with your perfectly crafted product.

Today, Maria is featuring three oils, in lavender, peppermint and patchouli – as well as an amazing smelling rose water. They make a great compliment to any wellness routine.

You can win these products from #HipNJ! Here’s how to enter our giveaway:

  1. Follow @HipNewJersey on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and LinkedIn.
  2. Find our Anatta contest post.
