Chance the Rapper is heading back to Saturday Night Live.
The variety show announced Chano’s return via Twitter early Saturday morning, confirming he would serve as both the host and musical guest. Though the rapper has appeared multiple times on SNL, the forthcoming episode will mark the first time he’ll pull double duty. Others who have served as both host/musical guest in a single episode include Drake, Justin Bieber, Ariana Grande, Lady Gaga, and Britney Spears.
He previously hosted the show back in November 2017 with musical guest Eminem.
Chance’s show will air on Oct. 26, exactly three months after he released his debut studio album The Big Day. The effort, which peaked at No. 2 on the Billboard 200, is stacked with big-name features, including Megan Thee Stallion, Gucci Mane, Lil Durk, Nicki Minaj, and Shawn Mendes.
The Chicago rapper is currently on the road for The Big Day‘s supporting tour with guests Lil Yachty and Taylor Bennett. The trek will continue on Nov. 10 in Miami, followed by stops in Phoenix, Houston, Detroit, Toronto, and finally Milwaukee. Check out the full schedule below.
