#247 - Coachella Chaos, Bieber’s Laptop Set & Festival Identity Crisis

WorkTape lands in the middle of Coachella’s latest run, unpacking a festival that feels increasingly split between spectacle and substance. From Sabrina Carpenter’s viral onstage moment to Justin Bieber’s polarizing, stripped-down laptop set, the discussion gets into what audiences actually expect when they’re paying premium prices for live music. Along the way, we question whether Coachella’s lineup has quietly lost its edge, how nostalgia and fanbases are reshaping artist longevity, and why emerging sounds from artists like Dijon and McGee are pushing R&B into a hazier, more low-fi direction. Come join a conversation about legacy acts, shifting expectations, and a crowd that might be becoming the main event.🎧 Episode Highlights:Are we witnessing the slow decline of the “must-hear” festival headliner?Is Coachella losing its identity as a music-first festival?Was Justin Bieber’s laptop move the wrong one?Did Sabrina Carpenter's moment get overblown?Are artists like Dijon and McGee the future of R&B?
