Usher Wows Crowd At Philadelphia’s Roots Picnic

Philadelphia’s 15th Annual Roots Picnic included Usher this year as one of its headliners.

This is not the first time the multi-Grammy winner has performed at the Roots Picnic. In 2016, he also performed as a headliner.

Other artists to perform at the music festival were comedian Dave Chappelle and rapper Lauryn Hill. Chappelle began the festival last Friday night at the Wells Fargo Center, and Hill appeared the following day with The Fugees.

Around 30,000 people were said to have attended the festival each day, from June 2 to June 4. The event was also the 15th Roots Picnic that Philadelphia hosted.
