Despite a weeklong delay due to rain, thousands of people decided Camp Flog Gnaw was worth returning to this year. Among them, of course, were the Teletubbies.

Tinky Winky, Dipsy, Laa-Laa and Po were back, although this year, Po renamed himself “Big Poe,” after the Tyler, the Creator song of the same name. They claimed they were here to ensure Camp Flog Gnaw’s three stages returned with a vengeance across its three stages after the festival’s delay.

“The rain went ahead and tried to take us down one weekend,” ‘Big Poe’ said. “But you know what? The Teletubbies said, ‘You can’t do that.’”

The festival returned to the Dodger Stadium grounds for a weekend full of performances from major artists like Childish Gambino and A$AP Rocky alongside artists still trying to make a name for themselves. The rain delay knocked highly anticipated artists such as Don Toliver and Clairo off the lineup due to scheduling conflicts, with artists like Kali Uchis joining at the last minute to put on a show “After the Storm.”

Performances began Saturday at 12:30 p.m. on the CAMP Stage with La Reezy, a 21-year-old rapper out of New Orleans, who burst onto the stage with confidence.

He brought an inspiring optimism to the stage, along with a dash of ambition. In between tracks, he proudly played an audio clip of Tyler, the Creator himself co-signing his music. In an interview with the Daily Trojan, La Reezy said he wanted to become the next rapper to rise to stardom without losing sight of his audience’s needs.

“I wanted people to see me and say, ‘Yo, this guy, he’s the future,’” La Reezy said. “I want people to feel loved. I want people to feel inspired. I want people to just feel enjoyment [and] happiness.”

Rappers on the rise showed out on Saturday as AZ Chike opened the FLOG Stage at 2 p.m. alongside a DJ and a guitarist. The crowd screamed the lyrics “Bitch I’m that boy!” and enjoyed an unreleased song produced by Pharrell Williams.

Continuing the party on the same stage was the hip-hop duo AG Club, who jumped all over the stage to songs like “Memphis” to open the first mosh pits of the weekend. The duo, who go by Jody Fontaine and Baby Boy, also took the opportunity to perform solo music during their set.

In an interview with the Daily Trojan, AG Club said this was a natural evolution of their individual journeys as artists. Fontaine added that this new focus on solo work came after years of being attached at the hip.

“We hit a point where we really just wanted to explore different parts of ourselves,” Fontaine said. “We are working on our next project, and I’ll just say that we both made a lot of solo music for it.”

Later, after a startlingly early sunset, Kali Uchis took over the CAMP Stage in the early evening. Her performance certainly didn’t look like a last-minute addition, though, as Uchis broke out a series of props in a set anchored by the most appropriately titled song of the weekend, “After the Storm.” She also denounced the United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement raids in Los Angeles to roars of approval before exiting the stage.

An hour later on the CAMP Stage, the festival’s founder arrived. Tyler, the Creator’s set was dominated by songs from his most recent works, including eight of the 10 songs from his most recent album, “DON’T TAP THE GLASS.” Tyler maintained a firm grip on the giant crowd dressed in outfits referencing his various albums.

Before performing his trademark live rage session “NEW MAGIC WAND,” Tyler thanked everyone who ensured the festival could take place safely despite the inconvenience of the postponement, as well as the audience who stuck around for the new dates.

The night wasn’t over yet, as Childish Gambino began a few minutes past his scheduled 9:55 p.m. start on the CAMP Stage. Gambino ran through a treasure trove of fan-selected hits, including “Redbone,” “3005,” “This is America” and “Heartbeat,” repeatedly cutting songs short so he could get to as many fan favorites as possible.

Gambino also added a heartfelt monologue about his recent health issues, explaining that he had suffered a stroke and later needed multiple heart surgeries. He closed his set with “Lithonia,” accompanied by an exhausted crowd still eager to belt out every word before the 11 p.m. curfew.

Sunday began with a hint of exhaustion as fans began to explore what else the festival had to offer, including rides, carnival games, branded pop-ups and nonprofit activations.

A small crowd eventually settled around the GNAW Stage at 2:35 p.m. for Left Brain, a veteran of Tyler, the Creator’s former collective, Odd Future. After an entertaining comedy sketch introduction, it was time for the crowd to bounce, yell and cheer to both the rapper’s flow and to mentions of the Dodgers’ recent World Series victory.

The Odd Future appearances continued on the FLOG Stage at 4:15 p.m., with Domo Genesis, whose set was assisted by a beautiful sunset and a lot of crowd-produced smoke. In between technically talented rap segments, he also convinced the crowd to repeatedly yell “Hot soup in my motherfucking bowl.”

As another early evening began, festivalgoers rushed to the CAMP Stage for Geezer, a band recently formed by former BROCKHAMPTON frontman Kevin Abstract and singer-songwriter Dominic Fike. Their jam-packed set was filled with lush covers of solo songs from both, backed by a choir in a bespoke stadium-like audience setup. A highlight was Abstract’s biggest solo hit, “Peach,” with the heartthrob vocals of Fike leading the way.

Two hours later, Thundercat brought his trademark funk to a massive crowd for the typically tame GNAW Stage. His jam-band set came complete with a giant inflatable cat statue and a ferocious drummer wearing a disco-ball hat.

All of which was a prelude to Doechii, who, just one year after taking the CAMP Stage in the early afternoon, returned to the stage at a more prominent 8:15 p.m. timeslot. She delivered songs like “NISSAN ALTIMA,” “BOILED PEANUTS” and the now-platinum “DENIAL IS A RIVER” to a crowd who now knew every word. She closed her set with a crowd-pleasing moment: a rendition of her guest verse on Tyler, the Creator’s “Balloon,” from his album “CHROMAKOPIA.”

The end of Camp Flog Gnaw on Sunday evening brought many compelling acts to the stage, including headliner A$AP Rocky, but a sizable crowd also formed for T-Pain, who closed out the FLOG Stage at 9:15 p.m. After introducing himself with the earwormy “DuckTales” theme song, T-Pain ran through his catalog of both solo hits and iconic guest appearances, like his hooks on “Good Life” by Kanye West and “Low” by Flo Rida.

So, why return to Camp Flog Gnaw? It depends on who you are, but for the Teletubbies, their costumes remained on for one simple reason:

“Honestly, the aura farm,” Tinky-Winky said.
