GRAMMY AWARD-WINNING COLLECTIVE 1500 OR NOTHIN’ RETURNS WITH 1500 DAY, A LANDMARK CELEBRATION IN INGLEWOOD

Since its official recognition by the City of Inglewood in 2021, 1500 Day has become a cultural landmark where music, community, and purpose unite. What began as a tight-knit collective of elite musicians has evolved into a global movement dedicated to shaping sound and giving back to the city that inspired it. 

1500 Day delivers an immersive experience for over 3,000 attendees, featuring interactive sports and gaming, food tastings, family zones, tastemaker panels, and surprise celebrity performances. During the daytime experience, the focus is on education, creativity, and youth empowerment, anchored by an interactive, Suno-powered activation that places cutting-edge AI at the center of creative expression. As the Official AI Music & Songwriting Partner, Suno leads a hands-on experience that invites attendees to create, collaborate, and reimagine how music is made, positioning the brand as a catalyst for the next generation of creators.

Over the years, 1500 Day has welcomed an extraordinary lineup of hosts, performers, and special guests, including Dave Chappelle, Angela Bassett, Snoop Dogg, Justin Timberlake,Nick Cannon, Kevin Hart, Mike Epps, and many more. 

“1500 Day isn’t just about celebrating music, it’s about honoring the journey, the city that raised us, and the responsibility that comes with influence. Inglewood gave us the foundation, and every year this day is about giving that energy back, creating space for community, creativity, and what’s next,” states Larrance ‘Rance’ Dopson, founder of 1500 or Nothin’.

Rance is nominated for two GRAMMY® Awards this year for his production work on album projects such as Teyana Taylor’s Escape Room and Coco Jones’s Why Not More? – achieving a career milestone of six nominations and one win.
