Fool's Gold DAY OFF ATL: DJ Drama and Don Cannon Bring Out Playboi Carti!

Written by Sierra Brown | Oct 8

After a three-day whirlwind of panel discussions and networking, Fool’s Gold Day Off started the festival portion of A3C with a nice surprise. After Smino, A-Track, Kodi Shane Zaytoven and Rich Homie Quan finished their sets, DJ Drama and Don Cannon ended the night strong by bringing out Atlanta rappers Playboi Carti and Young Dro.

Drama and Cannon’s set was filled with up-and-coming artists and fan favorites like 24hrs, Derez De’Shon and Young Dro. Right when we thought the show was over, Drama announces he brought a special guest. Carti came to the stage and performed bangers like “Magnolia” and “Woke Up Like This.”

Starting at 2 p.m., hip-hop lovers stormed the Georgia Freight Depot anticipating acts like Hoodrich Pablo Juan, Maxo Kream, Zaytoven, Smino, Project Pat and Rich Homie Quan. In between acts Madeux, A-Trak, and Kittens kept it rocking, infusing electronica and hip-hop, playing new heat and throwbacks.
