HARD Summer 2019 will be one for the books. Taking place on August 3rd and 4th, the annual festival has enlisted Kid Cudi as its headliner for the 3rd while Major Lazer holds it down as the main act on August 4th. The festival also includes many other prominent names in hip-hop including Sheck Wes, G Herbo, Lil Mosey, JPEGMAFIA, Juice WRLD, Gunna, Mustard, Dream Doll, Soulja Boy, MadeinTYO, and many others.

The announcement to have Cudi as a headliner comes a few days after his performance at Coachella. The rapper performed both weekends of the festival and later appeared with Kanye West during the one-off "Sunday Service" performance. It's unsure what Cudi has in store for this year but we're hoping the influx of summer performances indicates that a new project is set to arrive this year. He's still riding the wave of 2018's Kids See Ghosts, his collaborative project with Kanye West that dropped a week after Ye.

Check out the full festival line-up below.
