The music lineup for the 2018 Grammy Awards keeps getting better and better.

On Friday night, the Recording Academy announced this year’s ceremony will include a performance by Rihanna, DJ Khaled, and Bryson Tiller. The artists are expected to perform their collaborative record “Wild Thoughts” from Khaled’s 2017 studio album Grateful. (Side note: We wouldn’t be mad if Carlos Santana also got in on the action.)

Shortly after the performance was announced, Khaled expressed his gratitude via Twitter:

Though the summer hit did not receive a Grammy nod, Rihanna did earn a nomination for Best Rap/Sung Performance for her feature on Kendrick Lamar’s “Loyalty.” Khaled isn’t technically up for an award; however, his song “Don’t Quit” did earn Calvin Harris a Producer of the Year nomination.

The trio will join an already stellar lineup of 2018 Grammy performers, including Kendrick Lamar, SZA, Bruno Mars, Cardi B, Lady Gaga, Childish Gambino, and Logic. The awards show will air live at 7:30 p.m. ET, Jan. 28 on CBS.
