It’s only April but things are already heating up for Summer.
During Angie Martinez’s radio show today, she announced Hot 97’s Summer Jam 2008 line-up. Headlining the night will be Kanye West and Lil Wayne, both present at last years Summer Jam. Lil Wayne was a headliner, while Kanye came on stage alongside Swizz Beatz’ to have a little beat battle.
Two-thirds of D-Block (Sheek Louch and Styles P) will perform sans Jadakiss, and NY’s own hip-hop/rock fusion group Gym Class Heroes have been confirmed as well. This will be their first Summer Jam performance.
R&B acts will be well represented also. T-Pain, Ray J, Rihanna, Yung Berg and The Dream will take the stage where we could possibly see collaborations of their hit singles. Also announced was a special reunited performance from Public Enemy. Of course, we can expect several other guest appearances on stage as we saw last year (which included Diddy, Keyshia Cole, Lil’ Kim and Bone Thugs).
Presale tickets are already available at ticketmaster.com. Hot 97’s Summer Jam will take place June 1st at Giants Stadium.
