Detroit radio station Channel 955 announced a major hip hop event Friday via Twitter, which is scheduled to feature Detroit’s own Big Sean at Joe Louis Arena on June 14.
The station’s “Big Show at The Joe” will feature performances by Sean, as well as Kendrick Lamar, J. Cole, and Trey Songz in a one-night super-show. Tickets will be made available April 18, at 10 am, yet ticket prices have yet to be determined by Live Nation.
Big Sean hosted his last hometown performance on August 31 at DTE Energy Music Theatre in Clawson. The Detroit-native rapper has since separated from his former fiance Naya Rivera, a star on the FOX music television program Glee.
Big Sean released a public statement addressing the breakup:
“After careful thought and much consideration, Sean has made the difficult decision to call the wedding off. The recent rumors and accusations reported by so called or fake sources are simply untrue. Sean wishes Naya nothing but the best and it is still his hope that they can continue to work through their issues privately. We will not be commenting again on this matter.”
Kendrick Lamar recently visited Detroit as the opening act for Kanye West’s highly-anticipated (and rescheduled) December 19 performance. Lamar has performed in the Detroit area nearly five times within the 16 months.
