In an exciting announcement, the Atlanta Hawks have named Grammy-nominated artist Killer Mike as the halftime performer for the upcoming Martin Luther King Jr. Day game against the San Antonio Spurs. The Atlanta native is no stranger to the franchise’s home ground, the State Farm Arena, where he operates the S.W.A.G. Shop, a four-chair barbershop with an overlook of the court, offering fans more than just the thrill of the game.

“As an Atlanta native and fellow Morehouse Man who is also a Hawks fan, performing for Atlanta during the MLK celebration is the homecoming dream of a lifetime,” said Killer Mike. The event promises to be a thrilling blend of sports, music, and celebrations, symbolizing Atlanta’s vibrant culture and community spirit.
