Soundset 2011 is graduating from its underground roots with the announcement of surprise headlining performances from Big Boi and influential Native Tongues group De La Soul.
Big Boi and De La will join usual-headliners Atmosphere and Brother Ali over Memorial Day weekend at the fourth installment of the Shakopee, Minn.-based festival.
While the Minnesota concert has already gained a solid reputation as a celebration of non-mainstream acts, this year’s roster of talent ups the ante with the inclusion of some beloved out-of-town performers.
In addition to Big Boi and De La Soul, the Eminem-cosigned supergroup Slaughterhouse, Curren$y and XXL’s 2011 Freshman Class standout Mac Miller will also rock the crowd at the May 29 show.
