The Roots, Nicki Minaj, & More Perform At 2014 Philly 4th Of July Jam [Video]

For yet another year Philadelphia’s own The Roots used their hometown as the base for the Philly 4th Of July Jam. This time, the legendary band were accompanied by Nicki Minaj, Ed Sheeran, Ariana Grande, Jennifer Hudson, and Aloe Blacc.

The crowd went absolutely ballistic for the headlining YMCMB Barbie. Garbed in an ensemble that accentuated her assets, the rapper performed a 20-minute set that included new records like “Pills N Potions” and “Yasss Bish!!,” as well as classics like “Moment For Life” and “Beez in the Trap.”

Peep all of the performances in the visual below. Also, see footage of Philly fans going crazy for Minaj as she entered her hotel after the jump.
