Future paid homage to his late cousin Rico Wade's legacy during his headlining performance at Rolling Loud Miami 2024.
On Friday night, December 13, Pluto closed out the first night of Rolling Loud's 10-year anniversary at the Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens. The stage set-up resembled the home where Future and the Dungeon Family made their historic hits. In the moments leading up to Future's set, fans saw the home turn purple as smoke came out of the chimney. Suddenly, the home was set on fire and a stuntman came running out of the front door covered in flames. That's when Pluto made his grand entrance to the tune of "Teflon Don."
Future arrived on stage in a red jumpsuit with "Pluto" on the back and a white durag. He continued to perform songs from his popular project Mixtape Pluto including "Lil Demon" and "Too Fast." The crowd roared once the vicious intro to "Like That" boomed through the speakers. You could hear the echoes of fans rapping along to his verse on the Grammy-nominated diss track during his performance. Of course, he had to serve up some of his classics like "Same Damn Time," "Thought It Was A Drought," his verse on Metro Boomin's "Superheroes" and his hook on Ace Hood's "Bugatti."
Pluto's set on the main stage was one of several eye-popping performances on the first day of the biggest Hip-Hop festival in the world. Rapper Yeat made his official debut at Rolling Loud Miami with Bynx. He performed songs from his recent albums 2093 and Lyfestyle without his infamous face mask. Lil Yachty, Trippie Redd, BossMan Dlow and Lil Tecca also rocked the main stage earlier in the night.
Over at the GoPuff stage, artists like Young Nudy, Anycia, Curren$y and Hunxho blessed their fans with energetic performances. Later on, JT made her solo debut by performing tracks off her City Cinderella EP and a few City Girls hits like "Act Up" and "Where The Bag At?" Once she got off stage, the festival made way for the bawse Rick Ross, who performed a handful of his classics like "Hustlin'" and guest verses like "I'ma Boss" and "I'm On One." Tyga and Metro Boomin closed out the festivities.
The festival began with early performances from stars like Chow Lee, 310babii, Skaiwater, Wolfacejoeyy, Flyana Boss, Millyz, Eem Triplin and more. Check out more highlights from day one of Rolling Loud Miami below.
