Rock the Bells will mark its 10th anniversary with some very special guests: The traveling hip-hop festival will take a page from Coachella's Tupac hologram last year and feature "virtual performances" from the late Ol' Dirty Bastard and Eazy-E.
According to Pitchfork, the former N.W.A. rapper will "perform" alongside Bone Thugs-n-Harmony, while Ol' Dirty Bastard will be joined by his former group the Wu-Tang Clan, who have reconvened for a new album planned for a July release.
Other acts set for Rock the Bells include Common, Black Hippy (Kendrick Lamar, Schoolboy Q, Ab-Soul and Jay Rock), Rakim, Talib Kweli, Earl Sweatshirt, Danny Brown, Curren$y, Juicy J, Kid Cudi and Tyler, the Creator.
Rock the Bells kicks off Sept. 7-8 in San Bernardino, Calif., and will make stops in Mountain View, Calif., (Sept. 14-15); Washington D.C., (Sept. 28-29); and Rutherford, N.J., (Oct. 4-5). More artists will be announced next month. For more information, visit Rock the Bells' website.
