John Summit announces NYC Experts Only Festival lineup: See Kaskade, Cassian
The last weekend of the summer just got a lot more interesting.
John Summit announced dropped the news that he's bringing his inaugural, self-curated Experts Only Festival to New York City's Randall's Island on Saturday, Sept. 20 and Sunday, Sept. 21.
Notable names joining Summit on the lineup include Kaskade performing B2B with Cassian, Green Velvet alongside Layton Giordani and LP Giobbi.
DJ Seinfeld, Pete Tong, Kasablanca, AYYBO and TEED round out the party-starting bill.
In total, 19 artists are booked as of now with more to be announced for the 'Gen Z cultural moment of the year' at a later date.
'This one's been years in the making so we knew we had to go all out for u guys,' Summit shared via Instagram.
Experts Only fills the EDM festival-sized hole left by Electric Zoo; the popular festival mysteriously disappeared after the 2023 event was plagued with issues — including but not limited to 'supply chain disruptions,' 'police blocking traffic,' full-day cancellations and threats of lawsuits to name just a few — and resulted in refunds for paying customers. Although they never officially called it quits, their Instagram has been inactive for over a year.
Their last words on the social media platform were 'We know we let you down. As we continue forward, we will work every day to earn back your trust and forgiveness.'
Ravers, clubbers, bassheads and more can purchase tickets for the first Experts Only Festival on sites like Vivid Seats; the official on-sale is Friday, July 11.
Vivid Seats is a secondary market ticketing platform, and prices may be higher or lower than face value, depending on demand.
They have a 100% buyer guarantee that states your transaction will be safe and secure and will be delivered before the event.

Barbz vs. Billionaire: Nicki Minaj Claims Jay-Z Owes Her $200 Million–'Call Me To Settle This Karmic Debt'
Nicki Minaj is taking her feud with Jay-Z to another level, blasting the billionaire for allegedly owing her what she says is hundreds of millions of dollars. Source: Nicki Minaj and Jay-Z The rapper has been shading the Roc Nation founder for weeks, and on Tuesday, July 8, Minaj escalated her recent claims that Jay-Z owed her millions of dollars for her stake in Tidal. When Hov launched the music streaming platform back in 2015, fifteen artists–including Nicki, Beyoncé, Rihanna, and Ye–were gifted three percent Tidal equity, worth $56 million at the time, per Complex . In 2021, Tidal was sold to Square for $302 million, with Minaj and the other celebrity owners reportedly keeping their stake after the sale. Now the rapper is saying that she was offered $1 million for her share of the company, not the approximately $9 million that she would be owed if the company was valued at the price of the Square sale. Because of this, Nicki is publicly blasting Jay-Z for allegedly owing her an amount that nears the entire price of the sale. 'We've calculated about 100-200MM so far,' she wrote on X. '#JayZ call me to settle this karmic debt. It's only collecting more interest.' She added, 'And anyone still calling him Hov will answer to God for the blasphemy.' Minaj went on to repost Barbz who backed her claims, going on to say that she'd use the money she claims is owed to her 'to send some of my Barbz to college, pay their school fees & student loans via my #StudentOfTheGame charity.' Nicki went on to direct further criticism at Roc Nation as a whole when she called out CEO Desiree Perez, sharing a screenshot of a video that accused Perez of abusing her own daughter, Demoree. The clip alleges that Perez held her daughter against her will and physically assaulted her, claims that have not been verified, according to Vibe . She went on to blast Jay-Z for hiring a CEO that's not Black, tweeting, 'Isn't this the lady being accused by her daughter of being racist against black ppl #JayZ?!?!!!! There was no black woman smart enough to be the CEO of your company?!?' She went on to address Jay and 'Desirat' personally, saying they ruined hiphop, football, basketball, touring, Instagram, and Twitter, adding, 'All of this is alleged & for entertainment purposes only.' While Nicki's rants are going up on X now, she started her rampage on Instagram, which she now claims to be locked out of. After sharing multiple posts slamming Jay-Z, Roc Nation, and Megan Thee Stallion, Minaj claimed on X: 'Barbz it looks like I've been locked out of my Instagram.' While she doesn't say it explicitly, Nicki seems to be implying that Jay-Z had something to do with locking her out of Instagram, which is her reasoning for saying he and Roc Nation ruined the platform. It's unclear how long her alleged ban will last, but until then, it doesn't seem like her tweeting is slowing down anytime soon.

Teensy plastic ducks and their ‘hunters' taking over streets of Manhattan
They're going ducking mad in Manhattan. A dog walker who has been decorating her neighborhood with bright, teeny plastic ducks has inadvertently created a craze — with local kids collecting and trading hundreds of the toys. The so-called 'Delightful Duck Venture' has exploded in popularity in recent months after JJ Cerillo introduced two tiny homes for the plastic waterfowl as part of a mission to simply bring joy to her neighborhood. Advertisement 7 The newest Manhattan hotspots are Duck Libraries in Chelsea and Inwood. Robert Miller 'This is kind of why I get up in the morning,' said Cerillo, a dog walker by trade. 'We're seeing kids walking down the sidewalk hunting, and it just makes my day. And I know it makes their day. It makes them so excited, they just want to find those ducks. It brings so many people together and it's about ducks.' Advertisement Cerillo, 53, started placing the ducks around Chelsea and Inwood in late 2023 — affixing the colorful toys to random spots, such as posts and fences with magnets. She said over the years she's placed 'thousands upon thousands' and spent thousands of dollars of her own money on the idea. Though she originally started her waterfowl project for adults, the idea soon became a hit with kids, who spend after-school hours trying to find and collect them. So, late last year, she expanded the project by putting up metal 'duck libraries' on posts, where people can place the ducks they find elsewhere in centralized collections. 'When the library came, it gave me the opportunity to see these kids rush to this library and then I saw them all happy,' she said. Advertisement 7 JJ Cerillo created the Duck Libraries in December, a year after she started hiding the plastic toys throughout the borough. Robert Miller That idea supercharged her project as it soon went viral on social media and was profiled by Gothamist. 'When school gets out, it gets mobbed,' Cerillo said, referring to the Inwood Duck Library. 'There's a group of kids around, everyone's going in. I've even been there trying to put ducks in and they're pushing me!' Technically, the idea is to leave-a-duck-take-a-duck, but, unsurprisingly, thousands have been nabbed from the libraries. Advertisement 7 Neighborhood kids go on 'duck walks' and 'duck hunts' to find as many of the tiny toys as possible. @chelseaduckmags /Instagram Cerillo has lost count of just how many teensy ducks she's hidden throughout Manhattan, but estimates she goes through 500 per day. The Manhattanite shells out roughly $1,500 on Amazon every month to keep up with the cost of the project, but says it's well worth the price to put smiles on the faces of her neighbors. Beatrice, 11, and Mille Knittel, 9, of Inwood, joined the duck hunt in November after finding the toys littered throughout their neighborhood — and a duck trade erupted at school between other kids who were going on their own 'duck walks' with their families. At the time, the 'duck lady' was a celebrity but was shrouded in mystery. The sisters set out on a mission to find out who she was, and ultimately struck up a friendship with Cerillo. 7 Cerillo disperses as many as 500 ducks per day. Robert Miller 7 Millie and Beatrice were dubbed 'duck ambassadors' last month when they took over Cerillo's duties so she could enjoy her vacation. Robert Miller 'It was like meeting Beyonce!' said Millie. Advertisement The sisters wrote a card for Cerillo thanking her for the project, signed by the kids in their classes. Cerillo expressed her gratitude by turning the girls into 'duck ambassadors' and tasking them with her job for six days when she went away on vacation. 'It was really fun. We went out really early and put that out in different places like she does, like Payson and Broadway,' explained Beatrice. Little Alex Felder, 8, of the West Village, estimates he's collected about '1,000-something' of the plastic toys over the last year on weekly walks he enjoys with his dad, James. 7 Alex estimates he's collected '1,000-something' ducks, which he keeps in a section of his home dubbed 'Duck State.' Robert Miller Advertisement He keeps his collection on top of the family's flat radiator, which he has dubbed 'Duck State.' It's grown so large that they've taken to buying their own ducks so they can replace some of the ones they find, estimating they've put about 400 into the libraries over the last few months. 'It's all fun,' the third grader said simply. But for dad, it's a cherished time to connect with his son, telling The Post: 'The cool thing is it's really about walking around with him, a reason to walk and talk with him. It's a blessing. Over the course of a couple months, we've gotten to know every little weird landmark in Chelsea.' Advertisement 7 'Who doesn't like ducks?' said Cerillo. Robert Miller The project is infectious, with Cerillo saying other artists are looking to install their own Duck Libraries outside of the Big Apple — including one in Idaho and another in Edinburgh, Scotland. One of Cerillo's Duck Libraries is also being featured in the Coffeeright Gallery in the Chelsea Market this month. The Duck Venture has become such an important part of Cerillo's life that last week she even got inked with an image of the plastic, yellow creature that matches stickers that cover her libraries. Advertisement 'My goal is to grow this. Big things are going to happen. I'm going to make big things happen,' Cerillo said. 'Who doesn't like ducks?'

Not So Fast: Cardi Seemingly Shuts Down Stefon Diggs Breakup Rumors With Workout Video
Source: Elsa / Getty On July 7, Cardi B sent the internet into speculation mode after eagle-eyed fans noticed that the rapper had swiped photos of her new boyfriend, Stefon Diggs, clean from her Instagram account, instantly sparking breakup rumors. While the reason is unclear, love isn't lost for the 32-year-old Grammy-winner and her NFL boo. As theories spiraled on social media, Cardi took to Instagram on July 8 to set the record straight. The mother of three reposted a video that captured her and the 31-year-old New England Patriots star working out together during an intense off-season training session in Europe, according to USA Today. Taken from Diggs' recent YouTube vlog titled 'Mental Reset,' the fun clip showed Cardi getting in a few chest flys with a resistance rope. Diggs cheered the Bronx native on from behind, shouting 'Okay, okay!' as she hit a few reps. A source close to the couple also called the breakup rumors a flat-out lie. During an interview with TMZ , the insider claimed that Cardi and Diggs haven't officially called it quits, despite the 'Bodak Yellow' rapper scrubbing all traces of their relationship from her Instagram. So, no cause for concern just yet. Rumors of the duo's romance began swirling in February, several months after Cardi filed for divorce from Offset in August 2024. The two were spotted together throughout the spring, including a high-profile outing at a Knicks playoff game in Madison Square Garden. They made their relationship Instagram-official in June. As previously reported, the adorable lovebirds' romance reached new and luxurious heights on June 24, when Cardi revealed that the NFL athlete had rented a full-blown castle for them to stay in as they traveled abroad in France. 'Why this man got us staying in a castle? I'm talking about a real castle,' the femcee told fans, panning the camera to show a massive brick castle in the background. 'Look at this. This is a real f—— castle!' The musician revealed that the wide receiver rented the lavish property after she mentioned she never had a chance to visit the Palace of Versailles while in Europe. Diggs didn't disappoint. The stunning estate featured a luxurious swimming pool, soaring arched ceilings with medieval-inspired details, and a massive dining room with a table big enough to seat over 15 guests. Total fairytale vibes. What do you think about Cardi dumping photos of Diggs off her Instagram? Is she preventing an Invasion Of Privacy, or is it a 'Warning Shot' that a breakup is imminent?
