But first, Yo Gottihit the stage as a headliner with a live band and DJ Smallz. The Memphis legend performed songs from I Am like “I Know,” as well as some throwbacks such as “I Got Dat Sack” and “Women Lie, Men Lie.”Trae Tha Truth came out to do “Try Me,” his single with Young Thug.

Of course, Gotti went into his new material from The Art of Hustle, smashing live renditions of “Bible” and “Law.” He brought out his CMG artist Blac Youngsta to perform “Heavy” then went back to more hits (“Errybody,” “Act Right”).

Gotti revealed that this was his first time gracing the FADER Fort stage. He made sure to keep fans’ energy high, as he went into “Down in the DM” that had the crowd rapping along.

Drake was backstage at the Fader Fort watching the performance. Although the live stream has ended, there's a chance he might perform for those lucky enough to be in attendance right now. We'll keep you updated as this story progresses.
