Childish Gambino Joins 21 Savage for "Monster" at Lollapalooza
The Lollapalooza headliner dropped in on Savage's afternoon set.
Childish Gambino dropped by 21 Savage's Lollapalooza set on day 2 of the Chicago fest, surprising fans with a run-through of their 2018 collab "Monster."
The crowd was clearly into the sudden drop-in from Donald Glover, who gave his own performance later Friday night. He showed up to Lolla in a sling, which might have worried people looking forward to his set. After all, Gambino has had to cancel festival appearances over injuries before. But he descended the pyramid staircase deftly while rapping his verse from the i am > i was track, and fan-shot videos prove they loved it.
He didn't wear a sling in that set, opting instead for a typical Gambino concert outfit of drawstring pants and nothing else. Forbes described his performance as somewhat religious:
The festival runs for two more days and folks who can't make it out to Grant Park can watch a livestream below.
