Kanye West and Jay Z look set to perform together for the first time in two years, resurrecting their Watch The Throne live set for this year’s SXSW festival.
According to The Austin Chronicle, the pair will appear at the Samsung showcase on Wednesday night (12 March) ahead of Kanye’s G.O.O.D Music showcase later that evening. The rumour makes logical sense given that Samsung partnered with Hov for the release of his recent album Magna Carta Holy Grail.
