Kendrick is the closest thing to Jazz on offer and I wonder if Kamasi and co could resist the chance to play the biggest but naffest music festival in the world (Kamasi played the Jazz stage a year or two back).
Since the US has produced very little great hip hop in its forty years, I doubt the UK will ever manage, and whitey hasn't managed either, though Eminem has recently crept in to the top ten biggest selling acts of all time.
Elton or Abba (or Madonna) aren't 'cool' enough for the Glatonbury faithful but would actually be perfect and greatest hits sets from any of them could offer a challenge to the fabs hegemony. Kylie and Taylor Swift would be fine too.
Ironically and unbelievably the Beach Boys are 'cool' enough despite being more novelty and bubble-gum than any of them.
Arctic Monkeys, Stone Roses and Strokes are standard Glasto fayre and I'd rather roll around in mud and sh!t.
I don't think Led Zeppelin exist at the moment and would be more suited for Download, the rock/metal festival that thinks it's Zappanale but is really Glasto, just like Glasto thinks it's Download but is really the X Factor.
I believe Calvin Haaris is a current big popstar but I'll leave it until this decade becomes cool on the nostalgia trail and he becomes this, that and the other and all sorts of things he really just isn't. And I neither know nor care who SHM are but my guess is it's something to do with House Music.
