EAST RUTHERFORD, New Jersey — Hot 97 does a pretty awesome job at advertising their annual Summer Jam concert, but even after putting together an all-star lineup, the New York-based radio station always manages to pull out a number of unexpected and unforgettable moments.
Sunday night’s Summer Jam concert, which took place at MetLife Stadium was no different. Chris Brown, Kendrick Lamar, Meek Mill and Big Sean, were just a few of the expected guests, yet when it was all said and done the concert’s biggest moments didn’t fit on a flyer.
MTV News was in attendance last night and in case you missed it, here are the 10 biggest moments of Summer Jam 2015.
1. Fabolous And Friends
2. Nicki Tells Meek, “I Love You.”
What break-up rumors? Meek Mill brought out Nicki Minaj during his exciting set. She performed “Only,” “Truffle Butter” and then saved her best for right before she left the stage. “I love you Meek,” she said sweetly as she moseyed backstage.
3. Fetty Wap’s Big Birthday
4. Kendrick Lamar Performs To Pimp A Butterfly
Dot has been kind of quiet since he dropped his TPAB album earlier this year. There has been a few performances, but not many. Last night was the first time he performed tracks like “King Kunta” and “Alright” in the NYC area and boy was it worth the wait.
5. Travis Scott
La Flame may have not been a main stage performer, but Scott lit the festival stage on fire and had fans buzzing for the rest of the night. He ran through hisRodeo tracks, kicked a photographer off stage, debuted his new song “3500” and once again proved why he’s one of rap’s best showmen.
6. Chris Brown Brings Out 50 Cent
Fif was at the center of last year’s Summer Jam drama after someone got robbed on stage during his set. This year the G-Unit juggernaut says that security searched him throughly — but luckily for fans, he made it inside. He performed with Chris and one-time rap rival French Montana. There was absolutely no drama either. Salute these guys.

Meek Mill’s “Dreams & Nightmares” is an unlikely party starter, since the beat on this crowd favorite doesn’t even drop until almost two minutes in. But last night at Summer Jam, Meek decided to perform the entire track acapella prompting a passionate sing-a-long amongst fans.
