A LEGENDARY US hip hop group are set to headline Love Supreme festival in their only UK gig alongside a 90s chart topper and an iconic girl group.
The American stars are set to perform their first UK gig later this year after two years.
They will be headlining at the three-day Love Supreme jazz festival, which is held annually on the first weekend of July.
The group in question is none other than De La Soul, who will be hitting the stage on Sunday 5 July.
De La Soul, the legendary American rap group, debuted their first album 3 Feet High and Rising back in 1989.
After releasing the album, they quickly found fame with their tune The Magic Number becoming a fan favourite and reaching #7 in the UK singles charts.

Da La Soul had three group members, Vincent Mason, David Jolicoeur and Kelvin Mercer.
But in 2023, David, 54, tragically died after battling heart problems for many years.
However, the remaining group members are set to make their highly anticipated return.
Alongside De La Soul, 90s star Gabrielle is also taking the stage on the same day.
The chart topper is most famous for her songs Dreams, which was released in 1993 and Out of Reach in 2001.
Gabrielle, 56, is still very much involved in the music industry having announced in September that she would be touring with Rick Astley in April this year.
The huge girl group Sister Sledge are also set to appear at the Love Supreme festival in East Sussex.
Sister Sledge features vocals from Debbie, Kim, Kathy and Joni Sledge.
In 1985, Sister Sledge’s single Frankie topped the UK’s singles chart for four consecutive weeks.
Kathy left the sisters in 1989 to pursue a solo music career – the remaining girls continued as a trio.
Some of the other acts include The Temptations & The Four Tops, Franc Moody Maze, Kokoroko, DJ Pee Wee and Durand Bemarr.
Announcing the line up Love Supreme festival said: “There’s just something about threes…
“Enjoy three headliners at Love Supreme for the first time ever, with De La Soul now announced as our Sunday headliner, their only full live band show in the UK this summer.”
