AceShowbiz - During his headlining set at Rolling Loud Los Angeles, rapper YG shocked the audience by featuring a surprise appearance - an impersonator mockingly dressed as President Donald Trump. The impersonator ridiculed the president's stance on immigration and boasted about having "street cred" due to an alleged assassination attempt.
"I love Los Angeles. So many illegals," the impersonator declared, eliciting gasps and cheers from the crowd. "You know who you are. More importantly, I know who you are. We're going to build a beautiful wall. It's going to be made of solid gold." He also humorously professed his love for rap, naming "Ice Ice Baby" as his favorite song.
Before the commentary could go further, YG forcefully shoved the impersonator off stage, transitioning into his single "FDT," an expletive-laden track that criticizes Trump and has served as an anthem for his critics since its release in 2016.
The atmosphere at Rolling Loud was already charged, featuring performances from major Hip-Hop artists like Playboi Carti and A$AP Rocky, the latter dedicating his performance to victims of Los Angeles wildfires and those impacted by Trump's immigration policies. Rocky also made headlines with his helicopter entrance at his earlier set.
YG's act added a provocative edge to the festival, merging entertainment with political discourse in a way that had young attendees talking long after the event ended.
