The “Mi Gente” singer will be one of the eight artists headlining the music festival August 1-4 at Chicago’s Grant Park. More importantly, he’ll be the first Latino headliner in Lollapalooza’s 28-year history.
Latino artists have performed at the festival before but never as a headliner, which is what makes this year’s lineup different from the rest.

Like Beyoncé was for Coachella, J Balvin’s performance will show that Lolla finally recognizes there’s a large audience in the United States not only for reggaeton but for Spanish-language music.
Balvin is listed above other big stars — Lil Wayne, Kacey Musgraves
and Janelle Monae, to name a few. And some of his achievements over the past year support why the “Ginza” and “Safari” singer deserves his time to shine at Lollapalooza.
