U.S comedian Dave Chappelle is set to perform his first New York show in a decade, announcing an impressive flurry of musical guests.
Chappelle played a similar show ten years ago, inviting Mos Def, Common and more for what would later be documented in his Block Party film. Now, The Roots, Janelle Monáe, Erykah Badu, Busta Rhymes and DJ Premier have been confirmed for a series of dates at the Radio City Music Hall between 24-26 June. A series of non-musical support shows will also take place between 18-22 June.
