DDG is taking Hit-A-Thon 2 to Atlanta for a weeklong livestream from September 14 through September 21, building a full album live with chat while different artists pull up each day to record.
The streamer and rapper (Darryl Dwayne Granberry Jr., known as DDG or PontiacMadeDDG) dropped the official trailer today and framed the event as the biggest music-focused streaming marathon, this time in “the biggest city in music.” He asked fans to tag artists they want to see show up.
What Hit-A-Thon is
Last year’s first Hit-A-Thon was a 24/7 week on Twitch where DDG made Blame the Chat in real time. Chat helped pick beats, decide which songs made the cut, and shape the project. Guests came through the studio, the stream peaked at huge concurrent numbers, and the album later fed a tour that included Atlanta.15
Hit-A-Thon 2 repeats the core idea—build an entire album live—but moves the house to Atlanta and opens the door wider for rappers and streamers to pull up day after day.
What to expect: DDG’s Hit-A-Thon 2 in Atlanta
- Weeklong livestream, September 14–21
- DDG recording in Atlanta with chat in the loop
- Different artists expected each day
- Same mix of studio sessions, fan votes, guests, and marathon energy that defined the first run
Kick coverage has already called it a bid for “the biggest music stream in the world” and noted DDG inviting streamers and rappers to pull up.1
How to watch
There is no separate paid ticket for the livestream itself. Watch the same way as last year:
- Twitch — Follow twitch.tv/ddg or twitch.tv/pontiacmadeddg and turn on notifications. That was the home of Hit-A-Thon 1.
- YouTube — Clips and recaps typically land on the DDG Live channel after sessions.
- Discord — Join discord.gg/ddg for community updates, goals, and schedule chatter.
Create a free Twitch account if you don’t have one: go to twitch.tv, sign up with email or a connected account, follow DDG, and enable alerts so you don’t miss when he goes live.
How artists and streamers can pull up
DDG has publicly invited rappers and streamers. Practical steps:
- Tag @PontiacMadeDDG on X with the artist you want in the studio (he asked for tags in the trailer post).
- Follow his Twitch, X, and Instagram so team outreach or last-minute drop-ins are easier to catch.
- Watch Kick and Twitch clips for any additional “pull up” details he drops closer to September 14.
No public Google Form for Hit-A-Thon 2 artist registration has been posted yet. Last year’s format was invitation plus whoever showed up while he was live. Expect the same mix unless he announces a formal signup closer to the date.
Why Atlanta
Atlanta is both a music capital and a city DDG already played on the Blame the Chat tour. Staging the whole week there raises the odds of local and touring artists walking in, which is the point of version 2.
Mark September 14–21, follow the channels above, and keep an eye on his X for guest names and exact go-live times. The album gets built in public—chat included.

The PGA Tour season comes down to 72 holes and $40 million this week in Atlanta. The Tour Championship is underway at East Lake Golf Club, where the top 30 players in the FedEx Cup standings will decide the 2026 champion from Thursday through Sunday.
Everyone starts even. The old staggered-start format is gone for a second straight year, so Scottie Scheffler, Tommy Fleetwood, Rory McIlroy and the rest of the field will simply play stroke play for the title, the $10 million first-place check, and a five-year PGA Tour exemption.
PGA Tour Championship in East Lake Kicks Off This Weekend
East Lake, the historic Atlanta club tied to Bobby Jones and one of the best golf courses in Atlanta, has hosted this finale for two decades. The par-70 layout measures 7,440 yards and finishes with a demanding stretch that has decided plenty of FedEx Cups. Fans will find new hospitality spots this year—the Coca-Cola Lounge by the fifth green, the SO COOL Zone along the 16th, and The Landing on 17—plus the usual mix of putting contests, shade, and views of the closing holes.
Scheffler arrives as world No. 1 and FedEx Cup leader, even after dealing with illness at last week’s BMW Championship. He has won this event once, in 2024, and remains the betting favorite. Wyndham Clark comes in hot after winning the BMW, while McIlroy—already a three-time Tour Championship winner at East Lake—looks to add a fourth after a strong close in St. Louis. Defending champion Tommy Fleetwood is back to try to repeat.
The field also includes Matt Fitzpatrick, Cameron Young, Collin Morikawa, Xander Schauffele, Ludvig Åberg, Hideki Matsuyama, Patrick Cantlay, and several first-timers. First-round pairings sent Scheffler out last with Fitzpatrick at 2 p.m. ET; McIlroy tees off with Schauffele at 12:54 p.m. Coverage starts on ESPN at 11 a.m. Thursday before shifting to Golf Channel, with CBS taking the weekend.
Thunderstorms are possible Thursday and Friday. By the weekend the forecast improves, which should set up a clean run at the trophy Fleetwood lifted a year ago.
For four days, Atlanta gets the last word on the PGA Tour season. One player will walk off the 18th as FedEx Cup champion. The rest will head into the offseason knowing they came this close.
