Jackson Wang, Post Malone, Robbie Williams to headline F1 Singapore GP weekend
Asian-American label 88rising acts performing too, with more acts to be announced in coming weeks
SINGAPORE — Jackson Wang, Post Malone and Robbie Williams will headline the blockbuster entertainment line-up during the Formula 1 Singapore Airlines Singapore Grand Prix weekend this September.
The highly-anticipate race event, which made its comeback after a two-year COVID pandemic hiatus last year, will run from 15 to 17 September, and organiser Singapore GP will be unveiling more acts in the coming weeks.
Jackson Wang and 88Rising acts on 15 Sept
Jackson Wang - along with his 88Rising label-mates Rich Brian, NIKI, and Warren Hue - will take the stage on 15 September (Friday night) at the Zone 4 Padang Stage. More acts from the 88Rising collective will be added to the line-up.
Wang made history in 2022 at the Coachella Festival as the first-ever Chinese solo artiste to perform on the main stage. This year, he became the only Chinese solo artiste to perform at Coachella for a second time.
Rich Brian is the world’s preeminent Asian rapper and made history in 2018 by topping the iTunes hip-hop charts with his debut album AMEN - a first for an Asian musician. The Indonesian rapper has released two studio albums and two EPs and collaborated with the likes of 21 Savage, Offset, and Playboi Carti.
Indonesian pop and indie-folk songstress NIKI has accumulated over 1.8 billion streams to date. She sold out her first-ever headline tour in 2022 and last performed in Singapore on 6 December last year at The Star Theatre.
Fellow Indonesian artiste Warren Hue is a rising hip-hop star who has been listed in the Forbes Asia Under 30 list. He released his debut album "Boy of the Year" and embarked on his first North America tour last year.
Post Malone on 16 Sept
Grammy Award-nominated and five-time diamond-certified American pop star Post Malone will make his debut performance in Singapore on 16 September (Saturday) at the Zone 4 Padang Stage.
The Texan artiste achieved back-to-back No.1 album debuts on the Billboard Top 200 and received countless multi-platinum and diamond certifications around the world.
His hit songs include Congratulations, featuring American rapper Quavo, and Sunflower, featuring Swae Lee from animated film Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse.
Robbie Williams
With six of the Top 100 best-selling albums in British history, a huge 80 million album sales worldwide, 14 No.1 singles (with Take That and as a solo artiste) and a record 18 Brit Awards under his belt, pop sensation Robbie Williams will be returning to the Marina Bay Street Circuit.
His last performance in Singapore was at 2014's F1 Grand Prix, where he gave a memorable performance to a crowd of 50,000 fans at the Padang despite heavy downpour.
Williams will perform at the Zone 4 Padang Stage after the Formula 1 race on 17 September (Sunday).
