Malaysia’s Raising The Bar Festival has added rappers Joe Flizzow, Luqman Podolski and Lil Asian Thiccie to the line-up of its virtual 2021 event.
Raising The Bar (RTB), which marks its 10th anniversary this year, announced the updated bill last week. The expanded line-up comes after the hip-hop festival was postponed from its initial date of January 30, due to the restrictions and uncertainty caused by the reintroduced movement control order in Malaysia.
The other new additions to the line-up are Tujuloca, Naufal and I-SKY, Cønfucius and Babybluebenzo. They join the first round of artists announced January 6, which includes SonaOne, MC Syze, FORCEPARKBOIS, Dato’ Maw, Hullera and more. A total of 25 artists will perform for RTB this year.
