BRED Abu Dhabi, the region’s defining neo-culture festival, has announced that hip-hop legends Clipse and global hitmaker Mustard will take over the BRED Arena stage on Thursday, April 23, 2026, marking the opening night of the festival’s highly anticipated concert lineup.
Known for their sharp lyricism and uncompromising influence, Clipse, comprised of brothers Pusha T and Malice, are widely regarded as one of hip-hop’s most respected duos. With a catalogue of genre-defining projects, the pair bring decades of cultural credibility and timeless rap storytelling to Abu Dhabi for an unmissable live performance. Fresh off their first-ever Grammy win for Best Rap Performance at the 68th Annual Grammy Awards in 2026, Clipse arrive at the peak of a celebrated new chapter in their legacy.
Joining the lineup is Mustard, the Grammy-winning producer and DJ behind some of the biggest anthems in modern hip-hop and club music. Recognised for his signature West Coast sound and chart-topping collaborations with artists including Kendrick Lamar, Rihanna, and Roddy Ricch, Mustard is set to deliver a high-energy set that blends festival momentum with global club appeal.
