Janet Jackson, Nicki Minaj and comedian Kevin Hart will headline Essence Fest 2022 in New Orleans. The annual festival, billed as a "celebration of all things Black and beautiful," returns in person to New Orleans for the first time in two years. The dates for the 2022 Essence Festival of Culture are June 30 through July 2.

Other acts include Jazmine Sullivan, New Edition, Summer Walker, The Roots, the Isley Brothers and D-Nice & Friends.

 
I miss the old Essence Fest lineup. You knew what night was what and it went well. You would have grown and sexy night which mixed all crowds, then you had the night for the younger crowd, and last you had old school night which was the last night with Frankie Beverly always closing the show.
Now the acts be all mixed together and while it looks good on paper, putting a lot of these artists together for a show isn't a good blend of music at all.
