Nicki Minaj should have no problem filling Kanye West’s shoes seeing that she’s been named the headliner of the 2015 Summer X Games.

ESPN made the grand announcement early yesterday, January 20, which should be the first of many big moves the megastar’s latest album, The Pinkprint, brings forth this year.

The extreme sports competition has been taking full advantage of using popular musicians to raise the awareness of its show and this year is no exception. Talib Kweli, Pennywise and Deltron 3030 are also expected to perform and there will be more announcements leading up to the June 4 kickoff date in Austin, TX.

Tickets will go on sale tomorrow, January 23. Click here for more info.
