Soundset Music Festival


Soundset Music Festival is a hip-hop music festival held yearly in the Minneapolis-Saint Paul area over Memorial Day weekend. Inaugurated 2008, Soundset has since sold out over 35,000 attendees and hosted established national acts such as Atmosphere, Ice Cube, Snoop Dogg, Big Boi, Ludacris, Macklemore, Kendrick Lamar, and Nas as well as up and coming artists including Chance the Rapper, Vic Mensa, Manny Phesto and Dem Atlas.

Two years after Rhymesayers Entertainment was first founded they hosted an event with over three dozen local underground emcees, DJs, and b-boys in a South Minneapolis warehouse. Two years later, the event became Soundset Wednesdays at First Avenue. In 2008, Soundset emerged in the Metrodome parking lot. Soundset was scheduled to be held at the Minnesota State Fair grounds on Sunday, May 29, 2016.
