Billboard is at Rolling Loud Los Angeles, and from the vibes to the interviews with the artists and seeing them on stage, we take you there in “Billboard All Access.”
Cash Cobain:
Rolling Loud is from California. I see the palm trees. It’s beautiful. It’s amazing. I’m about to go perform right now, so, you know what I’m saying, it’s feeling good right now.
Tetris Kelly:
Before making it to the headliners, we had to check out the vibes at Hollywood Park, and fans were taking advantage of actual carnival rides, in addition to getting their hair and looks on point at multiple activations with tattoos and more. And don’t forget karaoke. There were also real artists backstage before their big sets.
DDG:
I just want to be one of the ones that come out here one day. And you know, I’m not pulling up at three o’clock, I’m pulling up at the SoFi Stadium doing — hell out of my own s—. You know what I mean?
Tetris Kelly:
Also you’re on the track with headliner Playboi Carti, man. Billboard ranked it the eighth best song out of the 30 songs. So how was it to work with my boy?
Cash Cobain:
Shout out to “FINE S—” man. For sure.
Tetris Kelly:
How is it to see, like, your peers out in the crowd and stuff at performances?
Derrick Milano:
It’s like you see them in the elements, and you see all the work and the hard work that’s put in, and you just appreciate who they are as artists and what you do.
Tetris Kelly:
And do you actually care about any of the other headliners that’s played, like anybody’s set you are trying to see before you bounce out tonight?

Tetris Kelly:
And everything crypto.com did to celebrate the icon. We’re taking you with us for a night with Tyler, the Creator in Billboard All Access. We arrived at the ‘Chromakopia: The World Tour’ at Crypto.com Arena and LA Live was lit up in green, and even had a statue of Tyler out front. And by the time we made it up to the VIP suite, there was a ‘Chromakopia’ drink that, yes, was green and also very strong. And you can expect a guy like Tyler to have merch with swag, and he delivered, and fans lined up all over the arena for the chance to take some home.
Fan 2:
We’re at the Chromakopia Tour. Got that ‘Chromakopia.’ He had to get the hat in both colors. He’s annoying, but they’re really cute.

Big Tyler fans.

Day one.

I’ve known him since like ‘Cherry Bomb.’

I really love the marching band inspiration, really big stadium energy.

It’s such a good album. No skips on that album.
Fan 7:
The moment it came out, we were at the listening party. We got the Postmates grub.
Fan 3:
“Like Him” really finishes off the story about his dad. Listening to that song made me talk to my dad again.
Fan 1:
He came out with that “Hey Now” remix, that L.A. West Coast, like I’m about this s—. I’ve been here. I’ve been doing that.

SEVENTEEN:
My runny nose is…
Tetris Kelly:
We love you Mingyu. SEVENTEEN just finished the US leg of their Right Here World Tour, and we’re taking you to the stadium and backstage to talk to them about taking over LA with SEVENTEEN THE CITY and more. You’re going there in Billboard All Access. All right, I’m hanging out backstage with my boys SEVENTEEN at their tour. How are you guys feeling tonight so far?
We had so much fun. Honestly, you weren’t expecting the stadium to be so big, because so many of our fans came when we performed. They loved our music. They were singing along. They were dancing. I mean, we had a great time. We had a blast.
I love it, stadiums in the States. And I mean, this is your first time being back in the states in two years. So what’s that like to see your fans after so long?
Two years ago, I caught COVID so I couldn’t take part in the LA concert at that time. It’s a relief that I can get on stage at this time, and it’s all the more meaningful that we get to perform at a stadium.
Yeah, well, we’re glad to have you back this time, and then of course what makes this show different than your past tours?
It’s been a while since we were here in the U.S., so it’s been wonderful to reconnect with our U.S. CARATs. Feeling their energy, I felt like I want to come back and meet them as often as possible. It’s a great honor to be able to perform at a U.S. stadium for the first time.
Yeah, well, we’re glad to have you but you gotta tell me, with it being so many members, how was it like before the show? Like, what are you guys doing? How is it wrangling everyone?
Keep watching for more!
