Yesterday was day 2 of the Coachella Music and Arts Festival, and while we’re still in awe of Outkast’s reunion, some of our other favorite artists killed the stage.
Nas was the big set of the night, where he performed his debut album Illmatic in full for its 20th anniversary, but it was his surprise guests that left hip-hop heads in shock!
Bringing out his former arch-enemy, Nas took the stage alongside Jay Z, where the two performed old school classics, “Dead Presidents” and “Where I’m From.”
Nas also gave a special treat for some of his loyal fans, doing a mini-set of some of his more recent songs, and brought out hip-hop mogul Diddy to do their hit “Hate Me Now”.

Earlier in the day, Pharrell killed his own set, where he performed songs off of his new album G I R L, including his smash hit “Happy.”
He also gave a special treat for his Coachella fans, as he brought out Gwen Stefani, and later performed some throwbacks that he helped produce such as Nelly’s “Hot In Here”, Snoop Dogg’s “Beautiful”, and Busta Rhymes’ “Pass The Courvoisier”.
Solange always puts on a great show, but during yesterday’s performance she brought out her superstar sister Beyonce during her set.
The two Knowles sisters were absolutely adorable as they did some special choreography dances to Solange’s hit song “Losing You”, and were all smiles the whole time.
Lorde also took the Coachella stage, where she performed everyone’s favorite song “Royals”, and tons of other gems off of her debut album Pure Heroine.
Even though there was a wind storm during her set, she still didn’t disappoint her loyal fans.
Another big name who drew in a huge crowd while taking the stage was the EDM veteran Skrillex, who got the festival-goers on their feet and fist-pumping the whole time.
