On Sunday, April 16, Jai Paul will take the stage at the 2023 Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival to perform his first-ever live show. In anticipation, he’s posted a note on Reddit about his preparations for the concert. “I always wanted to do something like this but yeah Im not gonna lie I am absolutely shitting it,” he wrote. “Anyway, I just wanted to let u lot know how much I appreciate all you staying with me for all this time. Hopefully it’s gonna be worth it.” Find Jai Paul’s full message below (via Stereogum).

Jai Paul broke out with “BTSTU” and “Jasmine” in the early 2010s. A collection of his tracks was infamously leaked in 2013, and he later released the music officially as Leak 04-13 (Bait Ones) in 2019.
