Her best music, plus songs from her collaborators, friends, and influences.
In late August, while performing at the Starplex Pavilion in Dallas, Rae Sremmurd’s reigning hip-hop hook king, Swae Lee, was hit in the face when an overzealous fan threw her cell phone on stage at him. While the intent wasn’t malicious -- the fan just wanted him to take a selfie with her smart device -- her aim was off. The phone struck Swae in the face, busting open his lip, leaving him bloody and having to get stitches that night.
He was irate immediately in the aftermath.
“On my momma I’m finna sue you,” he said onstage after he got hit. “Why you throwing shit on the stage? You throwing shit like a muthafucka baseball.”
Recently however, at Rolling Loud in Oakland, Swae displayed a serious change of heart. After he and his brother Slim Jxmmi got off stage, Swae spoke exclusively to LiveXLive, revealing a new plan of action for the fan who struck him several weeks ago: no lawsuit.
“The hoes say I’m beautiful with the scar,” Swae bragged. “It all worked out perfectly. Shout out to the girl that threw that the phone at me. Matter of fact, I want to reach out to the girl that threw the phone at me. Matter of fact I wanna reach out to the girl. I think I scared her. I wanna apologize to her. I really want to invite her to like five shows for free. On me.”
Rae Sremmurd was a part of an all-star lineup that ignited the stage in the Bay. Young Thug, Lil Skies, Gucci Mane, Wiz Khalifa, E-40 and Travis Scott were just some of the names that gave frenzied performances. You can see more from Rolling Loud right here on LiveXLive.
Fresh off the Rolling Loud stage the duo give an exclusive to discuss the booming festival, their later interaction with a fan and what's next.

Lauv chats with Dylan Landon about his come up in the music industry writing songs for himself as a solo act.
Kane Brown will release his new album Experiment on November 9th, but I recently had the chance to go listen to it with some other music industry people here in Nashville. The first thing I can say is, if you liked his first album, you’re gonna love this one even more. There are a lot of different sounds and styles on it and he does them all well.
When he played the song “Homesick” at the album listening event, the video he’s since released publicly was playing along with it. Now, I thought I’d had all the emotions removed from my body, but this? This made me feel one. So don’t say I didn’t warn you. It’s ok if you ugly cry. I did.
And if you want to hear more of it, check it out on Slacker’s Nashville Now.
