Dave Chappelle’s residency at NYC’s Radio City Music Hall will be longer than expected.

The upcoming series has been extended from 11 shows to 14, with three big guest artists added to the schedule. Chance the Rapper, Lauryn Hill, and Yasiin Bey will join the star-studded lineup, which already included musicians like Childish Gambino, The Roots, and Erykah Badu, as well as comedians Chris Rock and Trevor Noah.

Back in January, Chappelle made a surprise appearance at Chance’s “Open Mike” event, which gives Chicago youth a platform to showcase their talent. The 43-year-old comedian has also worked with Hill in the past: He featured the singer and the rest of the Fugees in his 2005 documentary Dave Chappelle’s Block Party and has also teamed up with her for live performances.
