Sounds Of Coachella 2018
Coachella has been and gone but the lineup this year was lit 🔥 The headline acts this year were mainly R&B and rap, which made 'Chella 2018 one to remember. We've broken down everything that went down so you don't need to be feeling all that FOMO.
The Weeknd
According to festival-goers, The Weeknd was close to tears during his performance of "Call Out My Name" - his breakup song about Selena Gomez. His set included all of his classics and most of the songs from his new album, 'My Dear Melancholy'.
Beyonce
Let's be real, can Beyonce ever do any wrong?! Her Coachella performance was high-intensity and extravagant in three-acts and 100 backup dancers, but at this point no one would expect anything less from Queen B herself. Her setlist included old and new songs and a heap of mashups.

Eminem
Eminem was the third headliner of Coachella and it's safe to say he nailed it. After reading some mean tweets to the crowd, he asked “Coachella, can I take you back to a time when I was actually good?” and then smashed out “My Name Is” and “The Real Slim Shady". After all these years, Eminem still reigns as one of the Kings of Rap.
Migos
Migos performed their classics such as 'Bad and Boujee' and 'Walk It Talk It', and were joined by Cardi B for 'Motorsport'.
