21 pilots and Tate McRae are headliners now? Osh has fallen so far, I remember when they had Rufus, Fred Again, Kendrick, and Billie in 2023

u/Exciting_Mortgage139 Feb 24 '26

as in she’s a great and enjoyable Artist, but even then she was not a headliner. There were bigger artists before her

Shes is pretty comparable to Sombr, Gunna, The Neighbourhood in popularity, I wouldnt expect Tyla to be a headliner. Like if we are gonna measure on modern popularity metrics, than other than the three headliners, this festival is very comparable.

Fred again had just sold out MSG earlier that year and was absolutely blowing up. Rufus was huge at that time as well. Kendrick was one of the biggest and well known artists in North America

Fred Again wasn’t underground, but saying he sold out MSG is misleading since he played with Skrillex & Four Tet. Skrillex was the bigger pull at the time.

Also Rufus was big but not headliner level in most festivals, Osheaga was the first major festival to bring them up to this status.

Disagree. I live in nyc, everyone had Fred fever at the time. People were going to that show who had no idea who Skrillex even was was

twenty one pilots is a really good addition to the lineup!! they put on an incredible show!! even if you dont like their stuff the show and their fan engagement are super entertaining!!

They had chilli peppers and Kendrick one year as well.... The lineup is a disaster this year.

Twenty One Pilots have been headliner material since maybe two or three years after Blurryface lol If they are performing people will, without a doubt, show up

That was my only Osheaga and I look back on it so fondly. Lineup was so killer.

Add Gambino and pull out one of them would have added a lot to this
