The "Watch The Throne" rappers have been tapped as headliners by Samsung.

We just reported on the G.O.O.D. Music showcase to take place on March 12th at SXSW this year, and although Kanye West was not one the artists listed to perform at their showcase, he will be taking the stage at the Samsung concert, alongside Samsung's past collaborator, Jay Z.

Samsung partnered with Hova on the inventive roll out of his Magna Carta Holy Grail album, and the company and rapper will be connecting again for a SXSW four-day concert series, with assistance from his Watch The Throne partner Kanye West. The two were just announced as the headliners today, and their performance in Austin, Texas will be followed by three other concerts, the location of which will only be announced on the day of the show.

Here's how you can get access to the show:

"Samsung plans to distribute concert wristbands only to owners of Galaxy devices with the newly launched ad-free radio service called Milk Music downloaded on their devices. They can pick up their wristbands at the Galaxy Experience pop-up location at 2nd Street and Trinity Street starting Tuesday at 10 a.m. CT."
