The Grammy-winning rapper confirmed the news in a statement, expressing his enthusiasm for representing rap music on one of the world’s biggest stages. This will be the second time Lamar will perform at the event, but this will be the first time he is the main act.
“Rap music is still the most impactful genre to date. And I’ll be there to remind the world why. They got the right one”, Lamar said in a statement.
