2 Chainz will no longer be the only rapper to take over an Atlanta Hawks game this season.

‘Furious 7’ star Ludacris will be performing on Wednesday at the Hawks-Nets game, the team announced on Monday.

“As an Atlantan who has supported the Hawks for years, I jumped at the opportunity to collaborate with the organization in a memorable way,” Ludacris said in a statement. “This has been an incredible season for the city of Atlanta and the team, and I’m excited take the energy in Philips Arena up a notch for the playoffs.”

Ludacris will assist in the pregame introductions and perform during halftime of the game. He will also pick out instrumental versions of some of his hit songs to play throughout the game, according to the team.
