Performing artist T.I. will return to Philips Arena as part of the Hawks’ concert series.

The rapper will be on hand April 1 when the Hawks host the Cavaliers and perform at halftime and following the game.

T.I. performed during a Hawks game last season.

“It’s only right that I come back to Philips Arena and rock the crowd as the Hawks get ready to make another playoff run,” T.I. said in a statement issued by the Hawks. “I’ve been ‘True to Atlanta’ my whole life, so I’m ready to support my city and my team like only I can. We’re gonna turn it all the way up for the last Friday game of the season.”

Jeezy, Rich Homie Quan, Silento and Big Grams have also performed this season as part of the concert series.
