“We’re excited to partner with SiriusXM to bring the Rolling Loud auditory experience to homes, cars, and headphones worldwide,” said Rolling Loud co-founder Tariq Cherif.
“My team and I have been working with Rolling Loud co-founders Tariq Cherif and Matt Zingler on many levels for a long time to help make this partnership happen,” added SiriusXM Host, Sway Calloway. “They’ve helped to enhance and put a spotlight on the live performance aspect of hip-hop music in a huge way with their festival, the biggest of its kind, and we are excited to work with them to bring what they’ve create to our SiriusXM subscribers.”
“After our success, earlier this year, broadcasting Rolling Loud in Miami, we are thrilled to join forces on a larger scale and in multiple markets,” said Steve Blatter, Senior Vice President and General Manager for Music Programming, SiriusXM. “Rolling Loud’s co-founders, Tariq Cherif and Matt Zingler are proven pioneers on the hip-hop festival circuit and have created a unique festival culture for attendees.
