The music festival, in Trent Park, north London, was advertised as 'showcasing some of the scene's most iconic figures' and fans were told it was the capital's 'first ever festival dedicated to R&B and Hip Hop culture'. In addition, headline acts Mya, Eve, Blackstreet and Tony Touch failed to turn up to the outdoor festival - leaving fans calling for refunds. And American rapper Fatman Scoop, who was set to MC the London festival, allegedly arrived onstage after 7pm. Elsewhere, music fans took to social media to share their disappointment, with one reveller calling the scenes 'a joke'.
