EDM DJ David Guetta performed on Weekend 2 of the 2015 Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival. He introduced rapper Nicki Minaj during his house set. Coachella is an annual event that occurs during the second and third weekends of April. The festival happens in the Colorado Desert at Indio, California.
"I've changed my set completely, partly because I'm playing in a U.S. environment and partly because I see why everyone goes crazy for rap music in the middle of a house set. It makes the moment. My sets are always a combination, because that's me. But as I introduce more urban elements, trap remixes and so on, the energy level goes through the roof. With American crowds, hip-hop is the weak spot," said Guetta in an interview with Billboard.
Minaj stepped onto the stage to perform ‘Hey Mama.’ She wore a black crop top and a large star and feather crown. Her hairstyle was long straight pink hair. Guetta posted a photo of the two of them on Instagram to thank Minaj.
Coachella was created by Paul Tollett in 1999. The music festival celebrates live rap, indie, hip hop and electronic dance music as well as art work. Stages at the festival are the Coachella Stage, Outdoor Theatre, Gobi Tent, Mojave Tent, the Sahara Tent, Oasis Dome, and the Yuma Stage.
