American rapper Lil Uzi Vert has quickly become one of the biggest names in new age hip-hop. Gaining recognition from his Luv Is Rage mixtape in 2015, Vert went on to feature on Migos' Bad and Boujee, before landing his hit single XO TOur Llif3 in 2017. Set to release an album in 2019, Vert's performance is set to be pure fire.
Some of the hottest names in the UK urban music scene will also be heading to the Croatian shores this summer. Showcasing the signature sounds the UK currently has to offer, the likes of Hardy Caprio with hits including Best Life and Needed Time, along with B Young with 079ME and Jumanji, will take to the Fresh Island stage for unmissable performances.
Hailed as one of the UK's most exciting talents, Yxng Bane will be putting on a special performance at Fresh Island 2019. With hit singles, Vroom, Problem, and Needed Time, the artist who has previously featured on Drake's More Life mixtape will show why he's not slowing down anytime soon.
