In other recent Glastonbury news, NME spoke to JayaHadADream about how it feels to have won a coveted slot at Glastonbury this summer after winning the festival’s 2024 Emerging Talent Competition.
“It feels completely surreal also heartwarming and reassuring,” she explained of the honour. “There are so many emerging artists doing amazing things, so to feel this seen and heard in such a busy climate is incredible, especially in hip-hop where women are so underrepresented.”
