Skepta at Glastonbury Festival 2025

In a surprise twist at this year’s Glastonbury Festival, UK rap icon Skepta stepped in for American rock band Deftones, who pulled out at the last minute. Skepta had just four hours’ notice before hitting the stage in front of an estimated 100,000 fans.

Despite the short preparation time, Skepta delivered a powerful, high-energy performance that’s already being hailed as the highlight of the entire weekend.

Fans flooded social media with praise, calling Skepta’s set “unreal” and “legendary.” Some even crowned him “the GOAT” (Greatest of All Time).

“He had the crowd in the palm of his hand,” one festivalgoer said. “No one expected it, and he absolutely smashed it.”

The performance likely included some of his most loved tracks like Shutdown, That’s Not Me, and Praise the Lord, along with crowd-hyping moments that showed off his talent as both an artist and a performer.

While Glastonbury is known for surprise appearances, this last-minute switch might go down as one of its most memorable moments ever.
