Following the aforementioned artists' denial of involvement, folks began to draw similarities to the Fyre Festival disaster. Soulection founder Joe Kay also defended the report on Twitter.

"This is real," he wrote. "We do not condone fake/mock up line ups. Everything we get behind is always official and locked in."

According to Complex, the artists who have confirmed Goldenvoice's report include Usher, Amerie and Snoop Dogg, who is also one of the event's organizers.

"Our festival is 100% confirmed. Lineups are always subject to change," Goldenvoice said in a statement to Complex.

Kay also defended Goldenvoice, saying the company organizes other well-known musical events and "they don't miss or do fake shows."

FYI: This festival is put together by @goldenvoice

They do Coachella & so much more. They don’t miss or do fake showshttps://t.co/pIWDkhg2sz

The organizers deal with the artist’s agencies and then the agency deals with the artist and their mgmt team.
