Gucci Mane, the Atlanta-based hip-hop musician, will perform an in-game concert during the Hawks game against the Pelicans on Nov. 22.

Gucci Mane has a Dec. 16 release date for his album “Return of East Atlanta Santa.”

“I’ve been ‘True to Atlanta’ and the Hawks for a very long time, so I can’t wait to perform center court in Philips Arena,” said Gucci Mane in a statement. “That game is going to be the hottest place in the city on Nov. 22 with me, thousands of hype fans and the Hawks ready to ball out.”

The Hawks have had regular in-game concerts since 2014 including T.I., Ludacris, Jeezy, 2 Chainz, Cee-Lo, Rich Homie Quan, Silento and Big Boi/Big Grams.
